Description

Reviews

The influence of the classroom teacher is the most important factor in predicting student success. Sadly, schools struggle to retain the high-quality teachers who are essential to student achievement.

Addressing the alarmingly high rate of teacher burnout and job turnover, this book offers:

Practical strategies for avoiding teacher burnout;
Questions and checklists to facilitate personal reflection and group discussions;
School-wide suggestions for shared accountability and change; and
A CD-ROM with reproducible handouts and other tools for putting ideas into action.

Founded on the strength-based approach of Developmental Assets, this book advocates strong relationships between teachers and administrators. When every stakeholder in a school is empowered to take action, teacher job satisfaction becomes a win-win situation.

Perfect for staff development workshops and book clubs, this reliable guidebook walks educators through the steps toward the positive work climate they deserve. And when teachers do achieve job fulfillment and optimal performance, the students are the ones who truly benefit.
