Abstract

This monograph explores how psychology applied to education drives teaching innovation in the face of the challenges of digitalization and globalization. It focuses on pedagogical adaptation to the psychological needs of students, emotional management in the classroom, and the use of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and collaborative platforms, to improve teaching. Positive psychology and mindfulness are highlighted as key tools to create learning environments that foster motivation, academic performance and emotional well-being of students and teachers. In addition, the evolution of educational assessment is analyzed, incorporating psychological and technological approaches for a more comprehensive measurement of academic progress. It also addresses teacher well-being, providing strategies for managing stress and promoting resilience. The monograph invites you to investigate how these innovations affect both teacher education and learning dynamics in various disciplines.
