Teacher Performance Based on Stress and Organizational Commitment

The biggest responsibility of current teachers in this
globalization era is to increase their knowledge so that they could
give high contribution to better students’ characters. One of the
best ways is to really comprehend rigidly the curriculum goals
for preferable and optimum classroom settings.
Education curriculum in surabaya, in particular, has
changed since 2012 in which the government used to kurikulum
tingkat satuan pendidikan ( KTSP ). Since 2013 then the
government changed it into curriculum 2013 ( K-13) which has
been implemented for two years particularly for the first and
second levels at secondary and high schools. Many teachers have
been trainned in order to support the policy through workshops at
local or national levels. But in 2015 the government changed the
curriculum again to refer back to previous KTSP model. These
changes bring about difficulties for teachers who have already
sticked to apply previous teaching materials and text books,
meanwhile the government did not provide complete guidences
yet. While the process was going on, at the same time, the
teacher had to give appraisal about the student’s attitudes and
behaviors daily as the alternative assessments.
