Job satisfaction level among public and private university teachersAhasan Uddin Bhuiyan
The study of behaviors within organizational setting has highlighted critical variables that are supportive or detrimental to the performance of workforce.
The overall performance of universities depends upon their teachers and ultimately their level of commitment and job satisfaction. Thus understanding their behaviors and attitudes needs more attention in organizations. (Tsui & Cheng, 1999).
A successful educational system requires a high quality teaching staff. It is well known that for the proper education in the country, high quality teachers are a primary necessity.
At present there are 82 public and private universities in Bangladesh. The numbers of public universities are 31 while private universities are 51. The first public university is The University of Dhaka, established in 1921. The establishment of private university is relatively a new phenomenon in this country. In early 1990s, private sector came forward to establish universities. Since then country experienced a spectacular growth in private universities– they were mostly in and around Dhaka.
One of these factors is job satisfaction, which has been studied widely by organizational researchers and has been linked to organizational commitment as well as to organizational performance (Ostroff, 1992 and Mathieu).

: Stress is an individual’s response to a disturbing factor in the environment, and the consequence of
such reaction. Stress obviously involves interaction of the person and environment. Teaching profession was
once viewed as the low stressed occupation in the world. Teachers were enjoying their profession due to the
freedom they had to implement their plans in their profession. They had enough time to prepare themselves to
handle the lessons
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Keywords- Motivation, Special education teachers, Work task.
I. INTRODUCTION
Motivation is really important in our life because motivation is the method that initiates, guides, and
keeps goal-oriented behaviours [1]
According to the concept of motivation, clinicians have to focused on two
investigations which are motivational psychology which is the action to motives stemming from a human
mental operation and social psychology which is people thought or action in the social setting.[2]
Teachers always play as a role model towards the student in many aspect especially special education
teachers. The main role as special education teachers is they need to act as a school-based teachers educator
who reasonably guides the student in learning and evaluation them.[3]
Based on Self-Determination Theory
(SDT), some teacher may see themselves as competent, but a few may perform their work task due to external
pressure or advantages that linked with their work.[4]
In order to become an excellent teacher, motivation is very
important in order to achieve the goal in their work as a teacher, especially in teaching task. The students that
being taught by an excellent teacher perform much better than those who are instructed by unsatisfactory
teachers.[5]
Some studies showed that teachers are the higher stressful occupation compared to others.[5][6]
The
stress experienced by the teachers involves their physical and psychological levels, also resulting in their lowest
level of job satisfaction.[6]
The major cause stress among special education teachers is students’ miss behaviour.
In addition, time, workload and relationship with others also are the source of stress among special education
teacher.[7]
Both non-teaching-related workload (such as office work and responsibility demands) and teaching-
related workload associated with emotional exhaustion.[8]
The most important stressors and may lead to teacher
dissatisfaction is lots of paperwork and high-stakes accountability requests.[8]
All those problems will affect
their capability and decrease their professional self- confidence.
II. METHODOLOGY
This study is a cross-sectional study with convenience sampling which is used to identify the type of
motivation in work task among special education teachers. The population of this were calculated using the

Roasoft sample size calculation software. The commonly accepted value is 127 respondents. The questionnaires
have been distributed to 10 integrated primary schools in Klang, Selangor but only 96 respondents completely
answered the questionnaire. The questionnaire has been distributed in paper pencil method.
The questionnaire consists of two-part which are demographic questions and Work Task Motivation
Scale for Teachers (WTMST). Part I of the questionnaire consists of demographic information about
participants. Demographic data contains the question about gender, age, number of years of working
experience, education level, marital status, and monthly salary. For Part II, the questionnaire survey will be used
is The Work Tasks Motivation Scale for Teachers (WTMST) is the questionnaire that assesses five motivational
constructs (intrinsic motivation, identified regulation, introjected regulation, external regulation, and
amotivation) toward six work tasks (class preparation, teaching, evaluation students, classroom management,
administrative tasks, and complementary tasks).
This WTMST contains 90 items which are rated by a Likert scale range. The construct validity is
moderate the value for introjected regulation (.51 to .75; mean r = .63), external regulation (.27 to .71; mean r =
.55), and amotivation (.33 to .64; mean r = .44)[3]
The overall convergent correlations (mean r = .46) were
higher than divergent correlations (mean r = .14). The internal consistency is excellent the (Cronbach's values
ranged from .83 to .96). Internal consistency values met the criterion of 0.70.[3]

3.2 The type of motivation in work task among special education teachers.
Majority of the respondents are Identified Regulation, 62.5% (60). 27.1%(26) of the respondents are Introjected
Regulation, only 10.4% (10) of the respondents are Intrinsic Motivation as shown in Figure 1.
The finding showed that the majority of the special education teachers are in the type of the Identified
Regulation on on work task. Majority of the respondents are Identified Regulation. Identified regulation is one
of the type regulation in extrinsic motivation. According to the other results, the employee had high extrinsic
motivation especially male compared to female.[9]
Teacher with higher motivation in their work and profession
will success and able to perform better than others[10]

3.3 The type of motivation in work task among special education teachers with socio-demographic data.
3.3.1 Gender
The result is p = 0.35 which means no significant. Therefore, there is a no significant difference between the
type of motivation in work task and gender (p = 0.71, 95% CI = -40.59, 27.55). Table 2 shows the result of the
type of motivation in work task based on gender.
Finding showed that there is a no significant difference between the Type of motivation in work task
based on gender of the respondents. There are few previous study that emphasis on motivation based on gender-
based. There are study revealed that the demographic variables which is gender-based, did not have statistically
significant connection with gender.[11]
It is because, in Malaysia predominately female dominated in job as a
teacher and usually female teacher has more challenging responsibilities compared to male teachers. Female
workers more alert and aware with social security and they always care about working relationship. Male
workers mostly motivated to perform their job based on their income, promotion and responsibility, while
female workers likely to have friendly environment, job security and mutual cooperation.[12]

IV. CONCLUSION
Majority of the special education teachers are in the type of the Identified Regulation on work task. All
of the demographic data have no role in the type of motivation on work task among special education teachers
except for level of education.
The limitation of this study is it did not include the grade of teacher in the demographic data in order to
identify the specific task that being done by teacher with different grade. This study only focus on the overall
total WTMST score which indicates the type of motivation for overall work task and does not explain each of
the task, such as classroom management, administrative task and student evaluation.
There are some recommendation for further research which can be done. The teacher’s grade as a
teacher can be used as one of the variables to indicate specific teacher’s work task. The other recommendation
is to focus on identify the type of motivation in each work task as a teachers.
