CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL LEVEL STUDENTS’ OVERSTRESS
Keywords:
overstress, learning process, cognitive overstress, obstacle, overloaded scheduleAbstract
An issue, with which the contemporary Romanian school is confronted with, in all its dimensions, is brought more and more frequently into discussion. Whether it is about the fact that the students have to learn too much, and usually things that seem to be of no use, or that the students’ schedule is extremely overloaded, and thus they neglect their rest and meal schedules putting their health in jeopardy or the fact that the teachers are assigned with so many responsibilities, many of which exceed their pedagogical tasks, it all reduces to a single term: overstress.
What are the causes of this phenomenon and how can its consequences on the middle school level students be diminished? These are issues for which this study attempts to find some answers.
