Download or read book Teacher Resilience Managing stress and anxiety to thrive in the classroom written by Jamie Thom and published by John Catt. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching is a wonderful profession, but it is one that requires huge amounts of physical, mental and psychological reserves. Inner resilience is a vital part of this, and the dialogue about how to develop it has been missing in conversations about teacher wellbeing. Resilience is ultimately the difference between being overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, to finding calm, purpose and joy in the work we do with young people. Teacher Resilience explores how we can build a more resilient mindset, and what practical actions we can take to be the best version of ourselves in the classroom. From self-talk to collaboration, conflict management to lesson planning and differentiation, no trigger of potential teacher stress and anxiety is left unexplored. With practical tools to implement immediately, this is the book that all teachers need to thrive in a demanding profession.

Download or read book Demoralized written by Doris A. Santoro and published by Harvard Education Press. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demoralized: Why Teachers Leave the Profession They Love and How They Can Stay offers a timely analysis of professional dissatisfaction that challenges the common explanation of burnout. Featuring the voices of educators, the book offers concrete lessons for practitioners, school leaders, and policy makers on how to think more strategically to retain experienced teachers and make a difference in the lives of students. Based on ten years of research and interviews with practitioners across the United States, the book theorizes the existence of a “moral center” that can be pivotal in guiding teacher actions and expectations on the job. Education philosopher Doris Santoro argues that demoralization offers a more precise diagnosis that is born out of ongoing value conflicts with pedagogical policies, reform mandates, and school practices. Demoralized reveals that this condition is reversible when educators are able to tap into authentic professional communities and shows that individuals can help themselves. Detailed stories from veteran educators are included to illustrate the variety of contexts in which demoralization can occur. Based on these insights, Santoro offers an array of recommendations and promising strategies for how school leaders, union leaders, teacher groups, and individual practitioners can enact and support “re-moralization” by working to change the conditions leading to demoralization.

Download or read book Stress and Burnout written by Stan F. Shaw and published by Council Exceptional Children. This book was released on 1981-01-01 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primer is designed to help promote mental, physical, and emotional health in school personnel and to prevent job burnout, with primary focus on interventions that special education and special services personnel, administrators, and teacher trainers can implement to manage stress and prevent burnout. Nine chapters address the following topics: the problems of stress and burnout for educators, the problem of burnout for special services personnel, assessment of individual and organizational stress, modification of special education policies and procedures, inservice training, management of stress and prevention of burnout, the administrator's role, the role of the special services professional, and strategies for preservice training. A final chapter summarizes each of the nine previous chapters and concludes that on a formal level, schools and colleges of education in cooperation with local school districts should encourage and support major research in the areas of stress management and burnout prevention; and that on the local level both school boards and teacher organizations should carry out informal study projects aimed at investigating what makes a superior teacher superior and what prevents a poor teacher from becoming significantly better. Appended are a paper on analyzing observations of stress conditions, a bibliography, and information on general models of intervention. (SB)
