| dc.description.abstract | Abstract The centrally designed reforms and changes in the educational system of our country may not consider the conditions of teachers and the teaching profession. As a result these changes may affect the c/"mmitme.nt, attitude and motivation of teachers. The purpose of the research study is to examine the levels of the basic internal problems of the teaching profession, i.e. decline of commitment, misbehaving and burn out with particular reference to the Dangila public school teachers. Moreover, it aims to examine the external causes and solutions of these problems purely based the opinions and suggestions of teachers. Both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, i.e. questionnaire and interview are used in the . . study. The questionnaire consists of three internationally recognized measurements, i.e. Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (OCQ), Teachers Misbehaving Checklist (TMC) and Maslach Burn out Inventqry-Educational Survey (MBI-ES). The reliability of these instruments is well established in world research- arena. An interview questions were prepared to support the questionnaire and provide qualitative examination of the problems. The target population were 475 public school teachers of Dangila town. Four public schools were chosen as a sample using cluster sampling method where 258 teachers were represented. The results of the study clearly show the existence of the above three problems in va'1 level among the public school teachers of the town. Organizational commitment is low, significant number of teachers' show a high level of burn out and some think that misbehaving among teachers is increasing. The causes of the problems are related to decline of status, increasing work load and absence of motivation for teachers. If measures were taken by concerned the problems facing the teaching profession can be minimized; educational reforms can be effectively realized and the -performance of students improved. As a recommendation, measures should focus on identifying the causes of these problems and work on these problems. It is important to provide a fair and equitable I' professional development opportunity and a fair salary and incentives for teachers. In addition, it is necessary to minimize workloads, cool off the pace of reforms for teachers to acclimatise them, create supportive school administration, expand carrier structure and undertake further research that help to ease teachers problems. The research may be a basis for other researchers to undertake further exploration of the problems of the teaching profession. vii ,. | en_US |
