This paradigm has been shown to be effective for fostering student learning. To date, however, the role of student emotion in productive failure has not been investigated. In other paradigms, there is some evidence that certain negative emotions may interfere with learning and that failure may increase negative emotions. This leads to a conundrum given productive failure\u2019s positive effect on learning. To shed light on this, we report on results from a study (N = 48) in the PF paradigm. For the analysis, we used a mixed methods approach to investigate the distribution of emotions in productive failure, how these changed across different instructional activities, and the relation between emotions and posttest performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>Bio: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>Zach was first introduced to Cognitive Science through his Bachelors\u2019 degree at McGill University.
