Emotionally Intelligent Digital Learning

Emotionally Intelligent Digital Learning explores how AI can transform digital education by supporting both academic success and student well-being. Instead of focusing solely on cognitive performance, this book introduces emotionally aware technologies that recognize student emotions in real time, offer personalized emotional support, and build mental resilience.

Through real-world case studies, ranging from virtual empathy training in nursing to tools that reveal emotional manipulation on social media, the authors explore how AI can foster emotional intelligence, empathy, and digital self-awareness.

Blending insights from psychology, computer science, and education, this work offers a practical framework for creating emotionally intelligent learning environments. It’s a vital resource for educators, developers, and researchers committed to creating psychologically sustainable educational environments.
