You run the emotional gamut between disorientation and severe anxiety. When you return to the classroom, you''re unsure how to cope. Your classroom used to be a safe space; is it still? In this book, the experience of two teachers before, during and after they witnessed school shootings are analyzed to determine the effects of these incidents on their lives. In one case, a teacher who observed a shooting of one student by another, struggled with severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Her issues, along with actions by school administration, led to her psychological disability. In the second case, at a different school, another teacher watched a gunman randomly firing at students; he was able to continue teaching. A comparison helps to understand the psychological and organizational factors that affect educators who witnessed a school shooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book would be critical in courses training school administra\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction – A Question About Personal Experience – A Question About Becoming a Teacher – A Question About the History of School Shootings – A Question About Severity – A Question About Designing the Study – A Question About People – A Question About Violence Affecting Teachers – A Question About Supporting Teachers – A Question About the Study’s Focus – A Question About the Teachers Studied – A Question About the Schools Studied – A Question About Working with Participants – A Question About the Interviews and Data – A Question About Checking Data –  A Question About Analyzing Data– A Question About Coding – A Question About Protecting Participants – In Melissa’s Words – In Mike’s Words – A Question About Findings: Melissa –  A Question About Findings: Mike– Contrasting the Two Teachers – The Big Question – What can Schools and Communities Do? – Opportunities for Other Research – Reflecting –  The Last Time I Saw Melissa– The Call Ends – Epilog – Suggested Reading – Index.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51039680856407,"sku":"9781433185069","price":28.36,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781433185069.jpg?v=1750944464","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/teaching-after-witnessing-a-school-shooting-9781433185069","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
