Ofsted inspections of Initial Teacher Education (ITE) providers aim to enhance training quality for pre-service teachers in England. However, research rarely examines the impact of these inspections on the wellbeing of Teacher Educators (TEs) based in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). This study, part of a broader investigation into burnout…

Research has shown that changes in job security cause changes in grading behavior for lecturer faculty, but the impact of grading practices on future workload assignments is unknown. In this paper we use a detailed dataset of lecturers at a large public university to test the theory that awarding higher grades improves the probability of positive…

Despite the extensive introduction of digital technologies in working life and the demand for the public sector, including schools, to digitalise, there is limited research on the relationship between digitalisation and the work environment. The aim of this article is therefore to explore how implementation processes of digital administrative and…

Background: Teacher well-being in Taiwan is challenged by excessive workloads, administrative demands, after-hours digital communications, and societal expectations, leading to stress, burnout, and diminished job satisfaction. Existing tools often assess isolated constructs without integrating emerging stressors like social media pressure.…

An early care and education (ECE) coach's caseload might shape the way they coach. Caseload includes the number of programs, center or family child care (FCC) classrooms, and center teachers or FCC providers that an ECE coach works with. This brief describes findings from 2019 surveys of ECE coaches, center teachers, and FCC providers about coach…

This research sought to understand the experiences and perceptions of special education inclusion teachers (SEITs) from an urban county in Central Georgia. The qualitative narrative analysis proposed here aims to give school districts insight into why SEITs leave the field. This study followed a basic qualitative design. Participants were pulled…

Anatomy-related departments have access to comparative research productivity data (e.g., Blue Ridge Institute for Medical Research), yet no datasets exist for comparing departments' general practices pertinent to education-focused faculty. Practice trends in anatomy-related departments across U.S. medical schools were explored by surveying…

The study tests 3 research hypotheses on the teaching-research nexus using the administrative data of the HSE University in Russia for 7 years. We confirmed the hypothesis that a lower classroom teaching load is associated with higher research output. Undergraduate courses have a relatively higher negative effect, especially on the probability of…

Neuroimaging research has transformed understanding of how the brain responds to instructional methods, with active instruction demonstrating exceptional learner benefits. This is valuable information for educators across learning formats in higher education, including in-person, hybrid, and online classrooms. Calibrating pedagogical practices to…

Teacher retention is a complex and critical issue. A wide range of causes contribute to teacher retention, attrition, and heightened teacher stress. Retention indicates teachers remaining in the teaching profession, and attrition refers to teachers leaving the education field (Arroyo, 2021). Schools need help to retain high-quality teachers due to…

Tanzania, similar to other nations in Sub-Saharan Africa, has been experiencing a severe teacher shortage. The problem that was addressed is that factors influencing rural primary school teachers' decision to continue teaching in Northeast Tanzania are unknown. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to investigate teachers'…

There is a serious problem worldwide as a result of the continuing decline in teacher retention rates. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the United States fell short of the required teaching staff; this decrease perpetuated the national special education teacher shortage. The COVID-19 pandemic brought education to the forefront of many homes and…

The AACSB 2020 business standards update provides a "principle-based" approach to the continuous improvement process for a business school. This approach provides great flexibility for business schools to define faculty sufficiency and maintenance of faculty qualifications in a way that is congruent with their mission and expectations…

Hiring academic staff into departments and supporting them remains the single costliest activity that most institutions of higher learning engage in and requires careful, long-term, data-driven planning. This study identifies widely available (but seldom actually used) variables needed for this process: available instructional workload units and…

Over the past decade, there has been an increase in government initiatives to widen Higher Education (HE) participation in the UK. Consequently, various Further Education Colleges (FECs) provide HE in order to meet that drive. In 2021, 162 FECs provided HE undergraduate degrees, yet little research has been focused on HE lecturers and their…
