Description

Dr Karen Noble s scholarly and professional interests
lie in the use of innovative conceptual, theoretical,
methodological, pedagogical, and collaborative
approaches to address enduring challenges in
education. Of particular interest in the research
written about in this book is workforce capacity
building in terms of investigating workplace bullying
across a range of early childhood education and care
contexts. This work has the potential to influence
that ways in which pre-service, early career and
experienced educators safeguard themselves in the
workplace to address issues of burnout and stress.
There is recognition of a need for alternative
perspectives to inform and enhance practice,
strengthen research capacities and inform policy
decision-making that build a positive workplace
climate for all participants.
