Det första steget är kanske att fundera över vad som har gått sönder?

“Taking a cue from Ghandi, we need to be the change that we want to see in education. As educators we are faced with two choices, either fall in line with educational reforms dictated by individuals and special interest groups who do not and have not worked in schools, or carve out our own paths that are in the best interests of our students.

Change in education is often viewed as a long, difficult, drawn-out process with the end result not being sustainable. Yes, change can be difficult, but if we are to truly transform how we teach and students learn then we must be willing to work together while acknowledging that this process will be fraught with obstacles. As we have moved from change to transformation at New Milford High School, I have found the following elements to be integral to success of many of our current initiatives. They include the following:

1. Modeling
2. Empowering staff through autonomy.
3. Shift from buy-in to embracement
4. Flexibility
5. Support (resources, professional development)
6. Shared decision-making
7. Encouraging risk-raking
8. Eliminating the fear of failure.
9. Positive reinforcement.”

  1. Ja, vad hur ser receptet ut för att laga en god utbildning? Och om man tittar på de utbildningar som finns, vad är trasigt?

    Att knuffa ner “utbildningen” till allt lägre åldrar känns som en deja-mu upplevelse (I’ve seen that shit before). Hur pass påläst är beslutsfattarna när det gäller barnsutveckling?

    The article focuses on the push down of curriculum to grades where it is not age appropriate for those students because they cannot academically and emotionally handle the work. All of this push down creates a situation where students are left with less play and end up with more stress.

  2. Kommer du ihåg det där experimentet som USA körde när de blev omsprungna ut i rymden? Superkids! De fick “undervisning” från unga år. Kunde läsa m m när de sedan började skolan. Låg flera år före sina jämnåriga. Ända till ingången i puberteten, då de jämnåriga kom ikapp. Då var dom utbrända!
