Letter in Defense of the Status of Teachers
Let me freedom to express myself now as a student of 5 th year of the course of Bachelor in Education and Education in Visual Arts UMCE respect of Article of Law General Education empowering graduates and other professionals for teaching, and that conflict is in essence quite clear, we live in a country of extremes, which is passed abruptly from the repression of debauchery, where there are no terms media talks about improving education and I feel fantastic teacher assessment, but where is the assessment of the family? The other pillar of education and that teachers had to assume and expand its work to replace the stage forming of parents who do not stop to educate their children.
talks about improving education and the teaching careers open any home studio, with registration requirements rather questionable, did we forget and pedagogies express?, talks about improving education and salaries to the faculty aims are frankly an insult, you insult the students who have already lost all respect for their own parent proxies insult you blame the teachers have lost control of their children, society insults you for being a second-class professional. Tell me then what incentive is there for good scores PSU entering teaching careers?, What person wants to live to work 44 hours a week at a college to earn $ 420,000?, Not to mention the extra hours devoted to preparing material teaching, proofreading, building assessment tools, etc. hours are removed to leave, the family and further training.
remember the speech of many university teachers talking about teaching is an act of love, but of course it is an act of love, only love makes you sublimate reality, idealizing the people and believe you're really changing the world, contributing to building a better society.
Then turn on the television just after zero hour, and I see the interview with mr. Jaime Gajardo in the program last look, where the journalist dismantles the entire statement by the representative union, according to accuse him to be defending plots of teachers' work, would not have done it long ago the pharmaceutical chemist? Is it not legitimate to defend your work?, But above all stressed the approach that Mr Gajardo could not express well (before the interruption of the period) and that is not enough to know what is taught, we must know how to teach, so trains teachers in Chile, at the University who presented with greater pride, no sir, I do not study "Pebblegogy" I study in the UMCE and spent four years attending classes in parallel with teacher training and specialty classes.
well I dare say that the great problem of education is, however sad it may sound, a problem of money, how to improve education? Simple, loading them the salaries of teachers, apply best scores to teaching careers, the rest is given by logic, how to improve the quality of education? Simple, reduce the number of students per course, they cease to be 45 please ring or they can serve 45 children, each with problems and needs, not to mention the students 'integration' that require specific attention imagine graduates know perfectly, engineers, doctors and all the myriad of professionals "Higher" than in theory come to teach us how to do our job, to come to speak of behaviorism and constructivism, assessment tools, models and approaches to learning, guidance.
I am absolutely sure how much they want all teachers to make students very knowledgeable about the specific area of \u200b\u200bknowledge to manage, teach them to appreciate poetry, science, history, but unfortunately they must first address what the family has neglected, when children and young people attend school unwashed, unshaven, uncombed, dirty clothes, shoes unpolished, not to mention vocabulary, they have not had breakfast, have a family member in prison, they are surrounded by the most appalling flaws of our society, then what is the priority? I mention this because the scenario is logical, better qualified teachers are no classes in establishments of the above characteristics, seeking particular sector and subsidized, paid better and more pleasant work environment, who can not access them, they must conform with the public sector, with social risk, with the worst scenario is the sad reality of the teacher who discourages, not perfect, supporting a family with a miserable salary. Where is
the call then? clear that he is there, but we also have to eat, we must also live, and the bread of teaching, frankly becoming increasingly bitter, I mean the son, grandson and nephew of teachers such as Mr Warken Nicanor Parra, citing in his column, let your voice day after day in the classroom, all chosen profession with the highest of vocations and have worked with quality, do not fear the educational evaluation, but require a minimum of respect as the professionals they are.
