Durden conducted case study research on teachers' morale levels and their intention to stay in education or not. After the research was concluded, the data showed that more than fifty percent of teachers from across the country were actively thinking of ways to get out of education. Concerned for education and our youth, J.D. started working harder from inside buildings rather than trying to change the outer layers of our educational system, realizing that might be the only thing we can control these days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWith the new knowledge of how teachers were feeling, \u003c\/strong\u003eshe spent an entire contracted school year-one hundred eighty days-writing my perspective on real-life happenings around her at work. \u003cem\u003eThe Daily 180 \u003c\/em\u003e writings and reflections in this book are thoughts and questions she wrote each morning before her days started.
