Insights with NetSupport - ISTE 2024 edition: Beating burnout with AI and automation with Brittany Blackwell, M.Ed

Maggie is joined by Britney Blackwell, who hosts the podcast "The Resilient Teacher", to discuss teacher burnout and how to avoid it.

Britney says that the main reason teachers are burnt out is because they have too much added to their plate. They are expected to constantly be available to students and parents through emails and technology, and they have to deal with a lot of administrative tasks on top of their teaching duties. This makes it difficult for them to maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Britney suggests that teachers set boundaries in order to avoid burnout. This includes things like not checking work emails outside of school hours and taking time for themselves. She also recommends using technology to automate tasks, such as grading essays.
