Superior Environment is Needed For Ideal Education
Training is the birthright of just about every countrymen and every citizen of every single nation. But what if a student missing interest and confidence in having excellent academic training despite the fact that these are provided together with the most effective facilities. Right here, the matter arises of introspection and focus in the direction of the student’s problem. Quite a few college students struggling in grasping the essence in the subject in classroom. They feels desert of boredom although a specific subject’s teacher come and begin to teach the subject. They lost the speed of modern day education. Training at Schools and Colleges are certainly not the only strategy to make a student knowledgeable. These are just the modes of obtaining expertise.
Education is the foundation of all progress, irrespective of the location, area or country. A human currently being can claim to become a human getting if only he or she is educated. Education brings faith, self-confidence and above all a social awareness as well as a certain status in oneself. This requires intensive care in educating an individual proper in the early years of daily life. A youngster grows and grows the ever improving curiosity.

The Minister And Education Policy
In a recent interview with the newspaper El Comercio, the 18/09/2001, the Minister of Education has made statements of interest to the state teachers and the educational community in general. Generally one can say that it begins to outline his vision of what to do but not many concretions of what to do. Hopefully gradually give them.
Patricia Salas has reiterated the need for continuing public career teachers coming in 2016 to cover 50% of public school teachers but no word yet on when the application can be restarted the same in 2012, it will be evaluated prior to implementation . If you have been emphatic in stating that no increases are expected for this and next year. Also expressed reservations about the Faculty of Law: “It has some stiffness, can not mobilize teachers, does not point to meritocracy. One possibility is to link it with the public career, dismissing the above and keeping on raising social benefits. “
In the interview with Mariella Balbi, states that have required changes in the ways in which the teacher is evaluated. The assessment should not be based on an instrument, but four, combining knowledge with teaching practices, classroom performance and training. What comes out is the product of a dialogue with different sectors, including Sutep. Certainly it is a key but complex. The instruments can be very complex or many if you consider that in the performance evaluation involved approximately 300 000 teachers. Countries with more experience in these matters have streamlined their assessment indicators reaching less than 20. The in Peru must make an effort to approach it. Continue reading
OECD Aims To Strengthen The Prestige Of Teachers
The OECD, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, meeting in Paris to discuss educational issues pointed out, clearly and precisely that, to truly improve education, it is the prestige of teachers who provide it, we must deal with his continuous training without neglecting, of course, a relevant and ongoing evaluation of their work.
Indeed, education misnistros partner countries, and representatives of UNESCO, the European Commission (EC) for Education, among others, also stressed the need to integrate minorities and foster dialogue between systems education and the private sector.
“We need teachers with prestige and a career path to achieve a better education” and summed up the day Alonso Lujambio, vice president of the board of the day and Mexican Minister of Education.
Teachers are considered key to any improvement in the quality of teaching, this was the invariable position of the OECD, in this international forum which opted to increase the social status of teachers, but in which also stressed the need for teachers in a process of training and assessment relevant and consistent.
In parallel, progress in improving the selection of teachers and attract the best students into teaching, said the president of the meeting, Austrian Minister of Education Claudia Schmied.
For teachers in Finland, reaching the highest standards of quality education, “have very good social recognition and there is a rigorous selection procedure therefore will not be in second or third option,” analyzed Miguel Soler, Ministry of Education of Spain, adding that in this country, “families, municipalities and social welfare institutions is not enough to know that only what is done in the educational system, but have to collaborate.” Continue reading
Talk About The Teacher’s Responsibility in The Current Situation of Educational Quality
There is much talk these days the quality of education and the media engages in disputes over the responsibility of teachers in low performance exhibited by Chilean students. On the other hand, teachers complain that they always prove them guilty and nowhere meeting rigorous analysis on teacher quality. By the way, I am convinced that teacher quality has a significant impact on teaching and learning processes.
Certainly, as I have stated several times before, that some of the problems of our public education pass through the administrative and financial mismanagement and, indeed, this is explained by the autonomy of managers no teachers in local authority educational establishments . Without autonomy to decide, not to be blamed for the failure to a greater extent than their fair share of their lack of academic leadership.
What about teachers? I think that if managers can not have autonomy in the management of resources, can not therefore provide performance incentives for teachers and this, of course, could make a difference. Regarding the incentives offered by the Ministry of Education to teachers who perform well on assessments (whether mandatory or voluntary as the AEP), knowingly say that teaching hospitals have suffered muc humiliation even try to collect these payments on schedule the Ministry of Education never respected. If the Ministry itself does that with the best teachers, what is left to municipal corporations always short of resources? Continue reading
On Quality, Leadership and Education
Not only in Chile, but in many parts of the world on five continents, we are talking about the need to move to higher levels of quality. In Latin America, of course, the issue has gained urgency ranges. It seems that the economic and social investment in education we are doing does not satisfy the aspirations of the citizens, since the levels of inequality of educational quality that are the most depressed socioeconomically and receiving the most high is too large, which added to the differences between the cultural heritages of both groups, the quality of parental education and aspirations of families, makes the problem of educational quality in an inescapable urgency in making progress towards the full development.
In the case of Chile, has not only been a weakening of the State responsible action to ensure quality education for all, but also failure (despite efforts) to broaden the coverage of preschool education, dropout rates that, although low in overall bulge in precisely those sectors that require more education, poor results in national and international standardized measures, lack of autonomy in educational management of the local school administration, ignorance (and apathy) of parents and guardians about the educational and school activities, teacher training if not bad, at least mediocre quality, very low social status of teachers (linked to low wages, despite efforts to raise them), relaxation of the school disciplinary rules; bureaucratization of the administrative procedures of teachers, lack of implementation of methodologies for an education suitable for the XXI century and a long list of problems with varying degrees of national or local impact. We are very far from having a quality education and how serious is that, although the diagnosis is clear and accepted by the majority, not as a country we have been able to agree on the basic actions for improvement. Who ruled yesterday and called to such agreements, known today and entered the implementation of them. Continue reading
