Mfundo zazikuluzikulu

• Biden adalonjeza kuti amaliza mayeso oyesedwa.
• Lonjezo ili lidasweka, kuyesa kwalamulidwa kumapeto kwa masika.
• Mayesero okhazikika amalanga osowa kwambiri, mabanja omwe ali pachiwopsezo chazovuta.

Pali chiyembekezo mlengalenga, kafungo ka kasupe, kuyembekezera kusintha, demokalase imatha. Chifukwa chiyani, ndiye, ndi masukulu aboma a K-12, lonjezo losweka, kukhumudwitsidwa?

Biden adalimbikitsa ziyembekezo pomwe adalonjeza, Disembala 16, 2019, kuti "adzipereka kuthetsa kugwiritsidwa ntchito koyesedwa m'masukulu aboma," akunena (moyenera) kuti "kuphunzitsa mayeso kumanyalanyaza komanso kuchotsera zinthu zofunika kwambiri ophunzira adziwe. ” Komabe pa February 22, Dipatimenti Yophunzitsa idachita nkhope, kulengeza, "Tiyenera kumvetsetsa momwe COVID-19 yakhudzira kuphunzira ... makolo amafunikira chidziwitso cha momwe ana awo akuchitira."

Nanga ana akuyenda bwanji? Akuvutikira, ndi momwe, akuyesetsa, momwemonso aphunzitsi ndi makolo. Ndipo ndi omwe ali ndi mwayi wocheperako omwe akuvutika kwambiri; pakusintha kophunzitsa pa intaneti, ali pachiwopsezo chokhala opanda intaneti, omwe mabanja awo ali pachiwopsezo chotaya ntchito, chisamaliro chamoyo, komanso miyoyo. Zimawononga $ 1.7 biliyoni kuyesera mayesowa, koma kuchuluka kwa ana-misozi, zoopsa, kudzipatula-ndizosaneneka.

Anthu ambiri sadziwa kuti mayeso awa ndi oyipa bwanji. Popeza masukulu amakhala kapena amafa pamiyeso yamayeso, zomwe zimayesedwa ndizo zomwe zimaphunzitsidwa, ndipo maphunziro ochulukirapo amakhala luso la masamu ndi Chingerezi mosaganizira. Ana amatuluka kusukulu osafuna kuwerenga buku lina, osadziwa kanthu za sayansi, zakale, momwe angawerenge dziko lawo. Aphunzitsi akuchoka pagulu; kusowa kwa aphunzitsi kunali koopsa ngakhale mliri usanachitike. Betsy DeVos atasiya mayeserowa kumapeto kwa masika, aphunzitsi adamasulidwa kotero kuti ena adati kunali koyenera kusamukira pa intaneti, kukhala ndi masabata asanu ndi limodzi kapena asanu ndi atatu omasulidwa kuti aphunzitse.

Kuyesedwa kwamiyeso yayikulu kunayamba ndi George W. Bush's No Child Left Behind (NCLB, 2002). Pulogalamuyo idabwera mumtambo wonena za "kufikira" komanso "ufulu wachibadwidwe," ndikudzifotokoza kuti ndi "njira yothetsera kusiyana kwa zomwe zachitika ... kotero kuti palibe mwana amene watsalira." Pofika chaka cha 2009, NCLB idalephera kuvomereza, koma oyang'anira a Obama adalilanda, nalitcha kuti Race to the Top, ndikufunanso kuti mayiko atenge, ngati mkhalidwe waboma, Common Core State Standards, mfundo zadziko zomwe zakhomeredwa inakhazikitsidwa mu 2010 ndi mabiliyoni ndi chilimbikitso cha Bill Gates. A Gates adalonjeza kuti a Core "adzatulutsa msika wamphamvu," zomwe zidachitikadi, ndikuwongolera bwaloli, lomwe silinatero.

Chinthu chokha chomwe kuyesa komwe kwachitidwapo anthu ovutikira ndikumalankhula za kulephera ndikuwononga masukulu aboma. Zomwe mayeso amayesa ndi ndalama za banja; zimagwirizana kwambiri kotero kuti pamakhala nthawi yoimira zip code. Pamene mayeso ayesa "kusachita bwino," sukulu zatsekedwa ndi mazana, makamaka m'malo opeza ndalama zochepa, ochepa, ndikusinthidwa ndi makalata oyendetsera anzawo mwapadera.

Kuyesa-kuyesa sikunagwirepo ntchito, ngakhale mkati mwa cholinga chake chochepetsa, kukweza mayeso ambiri. Zakhala zaka 20 kuti zitsimikizire zokha, ndipo "sizikugwira ntchito," monga Dana Goldstein akunenera, kufotokozera mwachidule zotsatira zamayeso apadziko lonse zosonyeza kuti mayeso azaka 15 zakubadwa akhala patsogolo kuyambira 2000, "ngakhale dziko wataya mabiliyoni ambiri ”(The New York Times, Disembala 3, 2019). Zalephera kuchepetsa kusiyana kwakukwaniritsa izi, koma sizinali za izi: zakhala zikukhudzana ndi kugulitsa masheya nthawi zonse, kulanda ndalama zaboma kwa mabungwe achinsinsi, ndikupanga phindu kumakampani monga Pearson, Houghton Mifflin, McGraw Hill.

Diane Ravitch adaziwona izi molawirira. Monga membala wodziwika m'madipatimenti oyang'anira mabungwe onse a Bush, anali woimira NCLB, koma atazindikira kuti cholinga chake chenicheni ndikubisa maphunziro apagulu, adadzudzula mwamphamvu, pogwiritsa ntchito zolemba zake, monga akunena, kuti athetse kuwonongeka komwe kunachitika chifukwa cha mfundo zomwe kale adathandizira.

Ponena za lamulo lomwe masukulu akuyenera kupereka mayeso oyenerera pakati pa mliriwu, akufuna kudziwa kuti lamuloli silinasainidwe ndi Secretary of Education, Miguel Cardona, koma ndi Ian Rosenblum, Secretary Secretary Wothandizira, yemwe, mosiyana ndi Cardona ndi department ina ya Maphunziro osankhidwa, alibe luso lophunzitsa. Rosenblum amachokera ku "Education Trust," gulu loganiza lomwe limalimbikitsa kuyesedwa kovomerezeka m'dzina lachiyeso, monga njira yoweruzira milandu. Gulu ili, lomwe lidatenga nawo gawo polemba NCLB, lakhala likukakamiza Dipatimenti Yophunzitsa kuti ikane zopereka zoyeserera kuti inene kuti awalembera (mayiko angapo, kuphatikiza New York ndi California, anali atapempha kale zoperekera zotere). Kuyang'ana pang'ono mwa omwe adathandizira mabungwe - maziko omwe amalipiridwa ndi a Gates, a Mark Zuckerberg, a Michael Bloomberg, a Jeff Bezos, omwe ndi banja la Walmart - akuwonetsa kuchuluka kwa ndalama zomwe zimayesedwa pakuyesa komanso kusungitsa anthu wamba, ndipo ndi ndani.

Palibe amene amafunsa aphunzitsi kuti ophunzira akupeza bwanji. Ndi aphunzitsi omwe ali ndi mwayi woyesa maphunziro ndi zotayika za ophunzira (monga Biden amadziwira, kukhala wokwatiwa ndi m'modzi). Ndi aphunzitsi omwe amayenera kuthana ndi "misozi, masanzi, ndi mabuluku athukuta" omwe abwera chifukwa cha kuyezetsa, ndipo akuyenera kudziponyera okha "nyengo ina yoyeserera," monga aphunzitsi a Jake Jacobs alemba mu Progressive. Biden amathanso kufunsa mabungwe aziphunzitsi popeza adadzinena kuti ndi "wachinyamata." Izi ndi zomwe akanamva kuchokera kwa Purezidenti wa National Education Association, bungwe lalikulu kwambiri la aphunzitsi mdziko muno (ndi a Jill Biden): tsopano ndi osadalirika. ” Sayenera "kubwera chifukwa cha nthawi yamtengo wapatali yophunzirira yomwe ophunzira amatha kukhala ndi aphunzitsi awo."
