Personal development and assertive management of emotions in students

Abstract

An effort was made to contribute to the transformation of a group of sixth-grade students in relation to the above, since they present inconveniences to relate assertively with their peers, thus originating behaviors in the learning environment that do not allow them to fully exploit their abilities. It is approached from the critical theory and participatory action research to promote the transformation of the participants, through the application of meetings where personal growth is sought, as well as fostering creativity and critical thinking, this being an opportunity to grow personally and professionally from the pedagogical praxis of the educational orientation. A cognitive - behavioral evolution is evidenced by the students of their emotions, in comparison with the initial moment of the investigation, however, it is pertinent to continue working with them in order to contribute to the achievement of an assertively emotional personality.
