SOURCES OF STRESS AND MOTIVATION FOR WORKING STUDENTS

Апстракт

Previous theoretical and empirical achievements in the field of educational psychology indicate that most research and studies are directed towards students, while there is a lack of research on the teacher's role and status in the educational process.
If we regard teaching as an interactive process in which the leading actors are the teachers and the students, we must not disregard the impact of the ones on the others. It should be particularly highlighted that the teacher’s behaviour has an effect on: the student’s security, the level of anxiety, the value system, the mood, the adaptation and inadaptation, the academic success, the emotional balance as well as other types of behaviour.
This research opens perspectives to many questions concerning teachers’ professional development and the characteristics they need to posses in order to fulfill their professional role successfully. The previous theoretical and empirical achievements in the field of educational psychology show that most reseach focuses on the students in the teaching process, thus neglecting the role of the teacher and their status in the educational process.
