Download or read book Stress in Teaching written by Dr Jack Dunham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stress involved in a career in teaching has increased considerably in recent years. In England and Wales the implementation of the Education Reform Act has led to a whole range of organisational and curricular changes to add to the existing pressures of discipline problems, poor working conditions and low pay. Anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and even physical illness are just some of the symptoms that result. This established guide, now wholly updated for teachers and managers in the 1990s, shows how to recognize the signs of stress and how to develop strategies to control it. Its practical advice, field-tested in numberous workshops for teachers and heads, should help scholls to reduce pressures on their staff by the development of satisfactory whole-school policies and teachers to be more effective in the management of their own stress levels.

Book Stress and Coping Patterns among Physical Education Teachers of Secondary Schools

This book was released on 2021-02-19 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction In everyday life, working class people come across many situations where they have to cope with many situations and conditions, putting them in a lot of stress. Stress has become an inevitable part of human life in modern times. It is becoming a global phenomenon affecting all genres of people. The optimum level of occupational stress poses a risk to most organizations. “Teachers in particular not only have the stress of dealing with so many diverse children on a day to day basis; they are also entitled with educating and helping to mold these children into productive members of society. With rules, regulations, guidelines and performance expectations can induce very high levels of stress; the job can be demanding and has hardly any relief. Quite often teachers must take their work home overnight or on the weekends in order to be prepared for the next class or session on the field, or the teachers will have to score the test given to the children, in free time, which is possible only when he/she gets home. The traditional summer break that so many teachers once looked forward to, has began to reduce over the past few years, as well with most schools beginning to adopt block schedules which require yearlong school sessions with no more than nine week vacation period”(Kaur, 2011).

Book The Impact of Occupational Stress on High School Assistant Principals

Download or read book The Impact of Occupational Stress on High School Assistant Principals written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed-method survey study was undertaken to determine the extent to which high school assistant principals in Michigan reported experiencing physical or psychological difficulties as a result of occupational stress. Using Lazarus and Folkman's (1984) transactional model as a theoretical lens, this study examined the intersection of people and their work environments through an analysis of their self-reported reflections on their capacity to deal with various work-based stressors. I collected data through an anonymous online survey with 46 questions organized into three sections: (1) Demographic information, (2) Stress in the workplace, and (3) General feedback from an open-ended response. I sent email invitations to high school assistant principals in public and private schools around the state, including deans of students or other administrators in charge of student discipline and supervision as well as teacher evaluation. A series of descriptive statistics, t-tests and linear regressions were run to determine levels of agreement to various statements about occupational stress, and to determine significant relationships 1) by gender, 2) by number of assistant principals, 3) by total school enrollment, and 4) by school setting. Additionally, qualitative analysis of the single open-ended question was conducted in order to allow participants the opportunity to elaborate on their quantitative responses, or provide new information when considering stress in their lives. My primary research question inquired about the impact occupational stress had on physical and/or mental conditions for assistant principals. Results showed minimal impact, primarily related to fatigue and weight gain, as well as difficulty with mentally leaving work responsibilites at the office. My secondary research questions pertained to whether any changes occurred for individuals after assuming an assistant principal position. These changes included challenges related to work-life balance, experiences with burnout, or behavioral changes such as decreased exercise or increased absenteeism or impatience. Results showed the adoption of a poor diet and decreased exercise as most prevalent for new assistant principals, as well as minimal relationships with burnout and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Qualtitative responses communicated concerns about increased workload (especially teacher evaluations), decreased funding, and difficulties maintaining work-life balance because of work-related responsibilities. Recommended coping mechanisms included daily exercise, following a healthy diet, taking mini-vacations to get away from work during the school year, and maintaining a positive attitude. This study provides insight about the potential impact of occupational stress for assistant principals, and gives direction to future research on the most influential conditions for them in schools.

This book was released on 2014-11-17 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Study from the year 2013 in the subject Education - Reading Instruction, grade: 7.8, Panjab University, language: English, abstract: Occupation is one of the important parts of our daily lives which cause a great deal of stress. Due to the competitive nature of the job environment, most of the people in the world are spending their time on job related work purposes resulting in ignoring the work and life. Usually people are more worried about the outcome of their work that can even affect the way they treat other people and how they communicate with their peers. In general, we can say that people with a higher percentage of occupation stress may not be satisfied with their job and therefore they will not feel happy working in the organization. So, we can say that it is very important for teacher to realize the stress that causes all the negative effects. Today, we all are a part of globalizing era which is characterized by excellence, competitions, quality etc. along with stress, strain n human being and in a world that is changing at a tremendous pace, globalization had led to an increase in the growth of education institutions all over the world and the education scene in Zambia is no exception and especially with the current scenario of trying to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGS) of providing basic education for-all by 2015. To fulfill social, environmental, economical needs one has to face stress, strain and anxiety. One should accept that stress is reality of life. Thus, it should be considered as an important aspect of life without which life will become boring.

Book A Decade of Research on School Principals

Download or read book A Decade of Research on School Principals written by Helene Ärlestig and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a unique map of the focus and directions of contemporary research on school leadership since 2000 in 24 countries. Each of these directions has its own particular cultural, educational and policy history. Taken together, the various chapters in the volume provide a rich and varied mosaic of what is currently known and what is yet to be discovered about the roles and practices of principals, and their contributions to the improvement of teaching and the learning and achievement of students. The particular foci and methodological emphases of the research reported illustrate the different phases in the development of educational policies and provision in each country. This collection is an important addition to existing international research that has shown beyond any reasonable doubt that the influence of school principals is second only to that of teachers in their capacity to impact students’ progress and achievement and to promote equity and social justice.
