Pfungwa dzakakosha

• Biden akavimbisa kuti achazopedza zviyero zvakaenzana.
• Ichi chivimbiso chakatyorwa, kuyedzwa kwakapihwa simba kune ino chitubu.
• Yakamisikidzwa bvunzo dzinoranga vanotambura zvakanyanya, mhuri dzinonyanya kutambura nedambudziko.

Pane tariro mumhepo, hwema hwechitubu, kutarisira shanduko, democracy inogona kudhonza. Sei, saka, neK-12 zvikoro zveveruzhinji, iyo yakaputswa vimbiso, kushungurudzika?

Biden akasimudza tariro paakavimbisa, Zvita 16, 2019, kuti "anozvipira kupedza kushandiswa kweyakaenzana kuyedzwa muzvikoro zveveruzhinji," achiti (kurudyi) kuti "kudzidzisa bvunzo kunozvidza uye kunokanganisa zvinhu zvakakoshesa vadzidzi kuziva. ” Asi musi waFebruary 22, Dhipatimendi reZvondo rakaita nezve-kumeso, richizivisa, "Tinofanirwa kunzwisisa kushanda kwakaita COVID-19 pakudzidza ... vabereki vanoda ruzivo rwekuti vana vavo vari sei."

Vari sei vana? Vari kutambura, ndomaitiro, vachiita nepavanogona napo, uye ndozvakaitawo vadzidzisi nevabereki. Uye ndivo vashoma vanobatsirwa avo vari kutambura zvakanyanya; mukuchinja kwekudzidzisa pamhepo, zvingangoita kuve vasina mukana weinternet, vane mhuri dziri panjodzi yekurasikirwa nemabasa, hutano, uye hupenyu. Zvinotora madhora 1,7 bhiriyoni kuti ubudise bvunzo idzi, asi muripo wevana - misodzi, zvinotyisa, kusanzwana - haikwanise kuyerwa.

Vanhu vazhinji havazive kuti idambudziko ripi bvunzo idzi. Sezvo zvikoro zvichirarama kana kufa pahwaro hweyedzo mamaki, izvo zvinoedzwa ndizvo zvinodzidziswa, uye zvakawandisa zvedzidzo inova chibooreso chisina musoro chehunyanzvi hwemasvomhu neChirungu. Vana vanobuda muchikoro vasingade kuverenga rimwe bhuku, vasingazive nezvesainzi, zvakapfuura, maitiro ekuverenga nyika yavo. Vadzidzisi vari kubuda vari vazhinji; kushomeka kwevadzidzisi kwaive kwakaipisisa kunyangwe denda risati rasvika. Betsy DeVos paakadzora bvunzo idzi gore rapfuura, vadzidzisi vakasununguka zvekuti vamwe vakati zvainge zvakakodzera kuenda online, kuve nemavhiki matanhatu kusvika masere akasunungurwa ekudzidzisa.

Yepamusoro-matanda akaenzana kuyerwa kwakatanga naGeorge W. Bush's Hapana Mwana Akasiyiwa (NCLB, 2002). Chirongwa chakasvika mugore rekutaura pamusoro pe "kuwana" uye "kodzero dzevanhu," ichizvitsanangura se "chiito chekuvhara gwanza rekubudirira ... kuti pasave nemwana anosara kumashure." NCLB yaive, muna 2009, kukundikana kwakabvumwa, asi hutongi hwaObama wakatora, vachichipa zita rekuti Race kusvika Kumusoro, uye vachida kuti nyika dzitore, semamiriro emari yemubatanidzwa, iyo Common Core State Standards, seti yemitemo yenyika yakarovererwa. kuiswa munzvimbo muna 2010 nemabhiriyoni uye boosterism yaBill Gates. Gates akavimbisa kuti iyo Core "yaizoburitsa masimba ane simba emusika," izvo zvaakaita, uye yaizokwikwidza nhandare, izvo zvaisina.

Chinhu chega chayedzwa chakamboitwa kune vanotambura kutaura meseji yekukundikana uye kuisa marara kuzvikoro zveruzhinji. Ndeapi bvunzo zviyero chiyero imari yemhuri; zvinowirirana zvakanyanya zvekuti kune izwi kwazviri - iyo zip kodhi mhedzisiro. Kana zviyero zvekuyedza zvaratidza "kushomeka kwekuita," zvikoro zvakavharwa nemazana, kunyanya mune yakaderera mari, nharaunda diki, uye yakatsiviwa neyakavanzika-inomhanyisa, inopa-inoita marata.

Kuedza-uye-kuongorora hakuna kumbobvira kwashanda, kunyangwe mukati mechinangwa chayo chekudzora, chekusimudza bvunzo. Yakave nemakore makumi maviri ekuzviratidza, uye "hazvisi kushanda," sekuzivisa kwaDana Goldstein, muchidimbu mhedzisiro yeongororo yepasi rose inoratidza kuti mamakisi ebvunzo evana vane makore gumi nemashanu ave akamira kubvira 2000, "kunyangwe nyika apedza mabhiriyoni ”(The New York Times, Zvita 3, 2019). Yakatadza kudzikisira gwanza rekubudirira, asi hazvina kumbobvira zvaitika pamusoro pazvo: zvagara zviri zvekushambadzira, kutora mari yeruzhinji kumatare akazvimirira, kuunza purofiti kumakambani akaita saPearson, Houghton Mifflin, McGraw Hill.

Diane Ravitch akaona izvi pakutanga. Semunhu aive nemukurumbira mumadhipatimendi edzidzo ehutongi hweBush, aive mutsigiri weNCLB, asi paakaona kuti chinangwa chayo chaicho ndechekuisa pachivande dzidzo yeruzhinji, akazova mutsoropodzi wake anotyisa, achishandisa kunyora kwake nekushingairira, sekutaura kwake, kugadzirisa kukanganisa kwakakonzerwa nemitemo yaakambotsigira.

Nezve mvumo yekuti zvikoro zviitise bvunzo dzakaenzana mukati medenda, zvinoda kuziva kuti hurongwa uhwu hwakasainwa kwete neMunyori weDzidzo, Miguel Cardona, asi naIan Rosenblum, Mutevedzeri Wemunyori Munyori, uyo, kusiyana neCardona nerimwe Dhipatimendi reDzidzo. anosarudzwa, haana ruzivo rwekudzidzisa. Rosenblum inouya kubva ku "Dzidzo Trust," tangi rekufunga rinokurudzira kuyedzwa kwakaenzana muzita rekuenzana, senzira yekururamisira kwemarudzi. Iri boka, iro raive nechikamu mukunyorwa kweNCLB, rave kumanikidza iro Dhipatimendi reDzidzo kuti rirambe bvunzo dzekuregedza kuti dzishande kwavari (nyika dzinoverengeka, kusanganisira New York neCalifornia, dzakange dzatokumbira kuregererwa kwakadaro). Kutarisa kune vamwe vevatsigiri vayo vemakambani- nheyo dzakapihwa mari naGates, Mark Zuckerberg, Michael Bloomberg, Jeff Bezos, mhuri yeWalmart - inoratidza huwandu hwakawanda hwakaiswa mukuyedza nekushambadza, uye naani.

Hapana ari kubvunza vadzidzisi mafambiro evadzidzi. Ndivo vadzidzisi vakanyanya kumira kuti vaongorore kudzidza kwevadzidzi uye kurasikirwa (sekuziva kwaBiden, kuroorwa nemumwe). Ndivo vadzidzisi vanofanirwa kubata ne "misodzi, kurutsa, uye bhurugwa" rakakonzerwa nekuyedzwa, uye vanofanira kuzvi simbi "kweimwezve mwaka une bongozozo yekuyedza," sekunyora kunoita mudzidzisi Jake Jacobs muThe Progressive. Biden anogona kunge akabvunzawo mapato evadzidzisi sezvo azvirondedzera se "mubatanidzwa wemurume." Hezvino izvo zvaangadai akanzwa kubva kumutungamiriri weNational Education Association, mubatanidzwa mukuru kwazvo wevadzidzisi munyika (naJill Biden's): ave asinganyatsovimbika iye zvino. ” Havafanirwe "kuuya nekushayisa nguva inokosha yekudzidza iyo ingangodaro iri kushandiswa nevadzidzi nevadzidzisi vavo."
