Turnover in Teachers: Stress, Burnout, and Fixing the Problem
Hanson, Kayla
BU Journal of Graduate Studies in Education, v5 n2 p50-54 2013
Teacher burnout is a major problem in the education field. Student misbehaviour, loss of independence, increased workload, and lack of support are only a few causes of increased stress in teachers. With turnover rates at an all-time high, it is important to find ways to increase overall teacher well-being. Methods such as reflection on one's practices, goal-setting, doing more physical activity, and developing resilience can help decrease stress in teachers, improve self-efficacy, and therefore prevent turnover.
