Syarifah Setiana Ardiati

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Happiness is one of the important aspects that need to be exploited and developed by individuals in various professions. One of the professions to develop happiness is the teacher. Teachers are professions that are vulnerable to stress that can rot on unhappiness. Attention centered care can be a necessary alternative for teachers, who have an indispensable awareness on the internal individual. Effective teaching training to increase happiness in Senior High School teachers. The research method used quasi non-equivalent experiments pre-test and post-test control group design. Subjects in the study were 25 Senior High School teachers. The instrument in this study is OHQ (Oxford Happiness Questionnare). The results showed an increase in training before and after training. Training based on mindfulness can be developed as an alternative treatment for happiness for teachers. Mindfulness is a state that can be achieved by using the potential of internal resources, so the practice of mindful teaching is actually very possible by teachers through structured exercises. Through mindful teaching training, teachers have positive feelings through positive emotions, feel good about the present, and have an optimistic attitude toward the future and to achieve happiness. Happiness is a concept that refers to the positive emotions felt by the individual as well as positive activities favored by the individual. Lastly, the researchers can further test the effectiveness of mindful teaching training with the number of samples more; and can, then, test the effectiveness of mindful training with comparing mindful teaching images at different school levels, such as in kindergarten, elementary, or high school teachers.
