Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
This systematic literature review focuses on the elements that contribute to teachers’ workload and its impact on their well-being. In general, researchers have conducted several pertinent studies on the issue of teachers' workload, therefore it is not a particularly new one. Regretfully, the majority of past research did not include the wellbeing of teachers. Hence, the present study reviewed 15 past studies on the teacher’s workload factors and its impact on their well-being. Two databases, Web of Science and Scopus, were used for the review. Eight issues or themed emerged from the thematic analysis of this review, including 1) physical to online teaching and learning; 2) increased working hours; 3) non-teaching tasks; 4) appreciation and respect; 5) stress; 6) physical and mental condition; 7) uncertainty and 8) burnout. |
