Generative AI: A New Frontier for Classroom Emotion Management in Basic Education English Teaching

This study investigates the application of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in classroom emotion management within basic education English teaching. Despite the growing importance of emotion management in educational settings, its integration into English classrooms remains underexplored. The paper examines the current status, advantages, and challenges of using generative AI to enhance classroom emotion management. Through a review of existing literature, the study proposes practical strategies for teachers, including designing diverse teaching tasks, monitoring student emotions in real-time, providing personalized feedback, and optimizing classroom interaction. The findings suggest that generative AI can significantly improve teaching quality and student learning experiences by creating a more positive and engaging classroom atmosphere. However, challenges such as teachers' limited AI application skills and resource constraints in educational environments hinder its widespread adoption. Future research should focus on developing tailored AI tools and enhancing teacher training to promote the effective integration of AI in basic education English teaching.
