EI, Classroom Climate, and Stress & Burnout in Teachers

Abstract

A positive classroom climate fosters increased learning and better relationships. Classroom climate will be examined to explore correlations with burnout and stress. Emotional intelligence and its effects on classroom climate will also be analyzed. Questionnaires will be administered on classroom climate, burnout and stress, and emotional intelligence in teachers. There is an expected relationship between classroom climate and emotional intelligence, stress and burnout. A positive classroom climate is expected to have a positive correlation with emotional intelligence and a negative relationship with teacher burnout and stress.
