The World Happiness Report | | For the first time in the World Happiness Report's 12-year history, the U.S. didn't earn a spot among the top 20 happiest countries in the world. It's No. 23 — down from a 15th-place finish the previous year. What implications does that have for schools and educators — and how can education influence global happiness? | | | | | At the very least, this information should color how education leaders think about their students, faculty and staff — and factor into decisions they make regarding the future of their institutions. Explore the full report to see life satisfaction levels and trends among children and adolescents, happiness by age, and more. | | | Overworked and Undervalued: Retaining Top Educators | | As U.S. happiness declines, it probably shouldn't be surprising that employee dissatisfaction is high nationwide. For teachers, workplace unhappiness can stem from factors like burnout, long hours, a lack of support and the constant shifts in the education landscape. Unhappy educators hamper student success. Read more about how leaders can work to retain and engage their teachers. | | | How to Boost Retention and Decrease Burnout | | Creating thriving institutions means implementing proven engagement, wellbeing and strengths-based practices. Proactively addressing what teachers need in order to be successful in the education workplace should be a high priority for education leaders. Use this guide to help retain your best educators and give them what they need to thrive. | | | How Policies and Laws Are Affecting College Enrollment | | Many factors can influence the decision to enroll at a college or university, including state-level policies that influence students' on-campus experience. What effect, if any, do these laws and policies have on the decision-making process for prospective students? | | | | | Gallup and Lumina Foundation's new report finds that while these legislative considerations are generally less influential than those related to cost, flexibility and quality of education, they are an important factor for most current and prospective students.
