{"product_id":"teachers-as-health-workers-louise-mccuaig-9781032150512","title":"Teachers as Health Workers: A Critical Understanding of the Health-Education Interface","description":"\u003cp\u003eSchooling has long been held responsible for the health and well-being of children. However, against an international background of rising concern about students' performance and well-being, schools and teachers have faced escalating expectations of their health-related work. While various stakeholders have ideas about what teachers' health work entails, we know little about teachers' contributions, engagement and personal satisfaction with this work. As teachers' work represents a significant national investment, insight into the cost-benefit of teachers' health work is vital to establishing the broader economic contribution of schools to society. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTeachers as Health Workers offers a critical perspective on these matters, documenting the day-to-day work of Australian teachers as they grapple with the challenges, and joys, of balancing education and health-related responsibilities. Whilst shifts in policy, economics and globalisation influence localised enactment of teachers' health work, the economic modelling, theorising and methodological innovations of this research address enduring themes and challenges. Consequently, this book's critical perspective reveals policy-practice gaps in government strategies seeking to create a healthy and productive population. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book will inform education, health and industrial policies and provide direction for teachers' initial or ongoing preparation as health workers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Louise McCuaig, Eimear Enright, Tony Rossi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032150513\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032150512\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.48d","brand":"Louise McCuaig","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43945691119871,"sku":"9781032150512","price":48.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_3e504f1b-29b9-4e0a-8682-a553041e9889.jpg?v=1681509403","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/teachers-as-health-workers-louise-mccuaig-9781032150512","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
