Title: Student Burnout*
Description: Student stress is a given (Biggs, Brough, & Drummond, 2017; Ossola, 2015). The problem for schools is how to avoid student burnout. One definition of burnout is “as an emotional state of exhaustion, cynicism, and depersonalization engendered by an exposure to a high level of chronic stress” (Walburg, 2014). Student burnout is a worldwide phenomenon and is not restricted to any cultural subgroup. It can affect students at any level and throughout their education.Access at: http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/pdfdocs/studentburnout.pdf
