Resumen
MENDEZ LOPEZ, Mariza Guadalupe. Labor intensification and emotions of Mexican language teachers: A case study. Innov. educ. (Méx. DF) [online]. 2017, vol.17, n.75, pp.31-48. ISSN 1665-2673.
Language teachers’ workload has intensified in Mexico as a result of the introduction of the Professional Development Programme’s (PRODEP) policy. This article presents an analysis of teachers’ emotions regarding the intensification and diversification provoked by the implementation of the PRODEP policy at Mexican state universities. Findings suggest that the diversification of the teachers’ work has added pressure to the teachers’ lives, originating stress, anger and frustration because of the workload and a lack of time for teaching-related activities. It is paramount for individual institutions to carry out a review of the effects of the PRODEP’S policy in their particular contexts, and to make the necessary adjustments to redirect its objectives if quality teaching is their goal.
