Teacher Frustration as an Area of Research Interest

The regular education teacher or general education teacher is on the proverbial "front lines" day in and day out in terms of providing educational services to a wide variety of students. Some of these teachers are well prepared, some poorly prepared in perhaps various realms and some minimally prepared in that they are teaching out of their area of expertise. Teacher turnover is probably at an all time high- and statistics indicate that teachers are leaving the field in droves and seeking employment in other related fields.
