Abstract

This workshop presents the importance of enthusiasm among educators to explain what they explain in class. Emotions among learners make students learn what is taught. According to Francisco Mora (2013), transmit curiosity about what educators explain to make students love and learn effectively. Finally, if educators love what they do in class learners love, too. It is not just philosophy when people mention that human beings can only learn what they love (Mora, 2013). Nowadays, the study of the brain is relevant and necessary among educators. It does not matter much if we have computers or not in the classrooms, we as professors will win more with large windows, more physical exercise and, more important with good teachers who know how to learn the human brain and have that contagious enthusiasm about what they explain. The most relevant point in this workshop is the best way to do and it is to be an example in the classroom. However, it seems difficult to wake up the enthusiasm of the students in the classrooms, the great secret is you can only learn what you love. The amazing key is emotion. Yes, it means the ability to interact with the world based on curiosity. The big problem is that we do not have trained teachers. The teacher is the soul of what people can be and we have to be aware as an educator what is a reality today: that teachers are magicians with a magic stick to transform the brain of children.
