Book Description
The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine the relationships among personal characteristics (id est, age, race, marital status, education level, and years of teaching experience), work environment characteristics (id est, pay, benefits, type of program, age group of children, and class size), job satisfaction, and turnover intention of preschool teachers work in licensed child care centers in Florida. This study also examined the extent to which job satisfaction had a mediating effect on the relationship between personal characteristics, work environment characteristics, and turnover intention. A cross-sectional web survey was developed and administered to a proportionate stratified random sample of 275 preschool teachers in Florida. The data collected included teachers' demographic and work environment information, Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS; Spector, 1994), and the Turnover Intention Scale (TIS-6; Roodt, 2004). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with post hoc comparison tests, independent samples t-test, chi-square test of independence, hierarchical multiple regression, and mediation analysis using Baron and Kenny (1986) approach. The results of this study found that more than one-fourth of preschool teachers (27.6%) were considering leaving their job. Chi-square test indicated that for teachers in the age group of 25 - 34 and 35 - 44 years old, being single, and dissatisfied with their job were associated with turnover intention. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed that job satisfaction was the most significant predictor of turnover intention when controlling for personal and work environment characteristics (adjusted R2 = .48, F = 168.33, p

Teachers' Career Trajectories and Work Lives
Author: Martin Bayer
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9048123585
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
The working and career lives of teachers have changed radically over the last two decades. Reforms have turned education into a commodity and pupils into ‘consumers’. Yet not since 1992 has there been a comprehensive overview of research findings on teachers’ working lives. This anthology plugs the gap by collecting various scholarly contributions and perspectives on teachers’ career trajectories and work lives. The material includes an introduction to previous research within the field, presents a range of contemporary research and offers suggestions as to what lies ahead. Among the contributors are leading educational academics who describe a variety of national contexts, illustrating how problems and challenges relating to the teaching profession manifest themselves and are tackled in different countries. The anthology also shows just how many aspects of teachers’ career trajectories and work lives transcend national boundaries. Common international themes include stronger ties between education and the economy, and a growing importance placed on how students’ skills relate to the perceived needs of the labour market. There is also a greater degree of political interference in curriculum goals and processes, and an expanding obsession with evaluation. In many countries, a whole generation of teachers are reaching retirement age, ‘changing the guard’ with a crop of new young recruits who are ever harder to attract. At a time when there is an increasing focus on issues such as teacher recruitment, retention and professional development, this anthology offers insight and inspiration to teacher educators and educational policy makers as well as to current and prospective teachers. It also aims at encouraging research into the field of teachers’ working lives.

Policy, Teacher Education and the Quality of Teachers and Teaching
Author: Christopher Day
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100034326X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
This edited collection brings together papers written by a number of experienced international academics who share a passion for promoting research-informed, high-quality pre-service and in-service teacher education that makes a positive difference to the lives of teachers and their students. Taken together, the contributions to this book represent a call to arms for all who lead education policy at local, regional, and national levels, teacher educators, and schools themselves, to engage in sustained and productive collaboration. Topics include: the centrality of empathy to the classroom, ‘practical theorising’ that is a central part of all good teachers’ armoury; the possibilities for collaborative professionalism which enables them to extend and enrich their thinking, commitment, and capacity for resilience; the pedagogical reasoning, habits of mind, critical reflection, knowledge, and skills that lead to the best classroom practices. Only when the voices of stakeholders at all these levels are brought together, heard, and enacted, are students in all schools in all contexts and in all jurisdictions likely to receive the quality of education to which all are entitled. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Teachers and Teaching.
