Abstract Details

2010, Master of Science, Miami University, Family and Child Studies.
Teacher stress and burnout (TSB) studies have revealed that TBS has become progressively worse. Researchers have offered explanations as to why TSB has persisted and provided suggestions to manage and cope with TBS. Seemingly, even with the magnitude of attention dedicated to TSB; the prevalence is growing faster than solutions work. In response, this study took a holistic approach that included TSB within the context of influences (e.g., federal policy, individual districts and schools). This study is guided by Ecological Theory and builds on existing explanations and prevailing suggestions for coping with and managing TBS. Finally, this study is timely because of its specific exploration of TSB within the context of No Child Left Behind (NCLB). In this study, regular and special education teachers were interviewed regarding their observations and experiences with TSB. These interviews were analyzed for themes related to Ecological Theory and the Ecosystem of Education.
