" In a difficult time like this, some say we can not afford to invest in research to support that science is a luxury when you have to give priority to what is absolutely necessary. I the opposite view. Today, research is more essential than ever to our prosperity, security, health, environment, quality of life. (,,,) In response to the crisis, now is the right time to invest much more has ever done in applied research and basic research, although in some cases the results can be seen only in ten years or more: (...) the public funding are essential right where individuals do not dare risk it. are in fact high risk high benefits for our economy and our society.

The story of a teacher precarious

Emily Beath, The school we , Fanucci Editore, Rome 2009

" In the general economic collapse, social and cultural development across our age, the world seems to represent the school at the same time the most obvious demonstration of this and the only hope still groped for a viable change the reality in the making. When a society is in crisis should always restart from the public school is the ideal fly to build a new social and productive. And those who can not understand, or simply they are apathetic, would cause major damage for which we will all pay, one way or another, serious consequences. "

What can I say? Nothing is added if not applaud.

He continues: " I think the difference between our views on the issue lies here, because to me that of 'teacher is not a job but a mission, something that you feel inside and that you want to do any morning when you leave the house, and every evening, while you finish preparing the lesson for the next day before going to sleep. And if this should disappear at some point, if you feel that inside you is gone, you should find the strength and courage to stop. "

Another applause.

It 's a book read. It 's the story of the author, a professor precarious, which is not only the life of a deputy, but also the desire to learn and grow pupils. Pupils are listened to, encouraged and trained not only trained in the contents of the disciplines.

In the book there is also the school's real problem: the clash between two generations of teachers, a tired and disillusioned generation that keeps the place just for the salary and a younger generation, and prepared with so much enthusiasm, but precarious.

A new book about the school rejected the

books on the disaster of the school are wasted. Too bad that those who treasure it should perhaps not read them or read them with such detachment does not understand its significance. After the factory of the ignorant who denounced the blunders of students and former students comes in 5 Conduct also raising the squandering of money and school time because of the various projects that have nothing to do with the course of studies. Those projects I mentioned in my previous post you. Those projects that enrich the POF of each institute every grade of school. Those projects enrich the educational offer that if they do not enrich all students' culture and emptied the coffers of the school funds.

Mario Giordano estimated that 58 million was spent € 36,000 to pay for outside consultants. I think if I understand correctly, that the sum refers to a school year. Obviously, the data speak for themselves.

In the book I suggest you read you will find an abundant literature on the school. Better on the breakdown of the school. Many of these books can be found in the Further Reading section of this blog. Most recent no because I have not read yet but I intend to do this summer and I will give you news.

Rich was quoted by Paola Mastrocola and its The school told my dog, which remains the "bible" of declining school analyzed with irony. In

5 in conduct lies, however, much more. The blunders of the students pulled out of various websites and books to the various different stories about the various performances of hilarious teachers. One of these: Prof. Heels, Vincenzo Di Grazia or in the spring of 2006 for a week was presented at the Institute of Hotel Cervia (Ravenna), where he taught Italian, dressed as a woman.

to read a book that is laugh out loud at times and quite often turn up their nose in disgust, but should be read carefully and "thoughtful."

Gelmini

Minister of Education Maria Stella Gelmini has been rejected twice by two different institutional bodies.

The first rejection came from T ar Lazio. According to the judges Hospitality rativi students can not ask to do 5 hours of English instead of 3:02 of the second Community language. Since the sentences of T ar catkins are immediately implementing the core of the new school Ge lmin is skipped.

The second rejection came from the Court and Co respective constitutional concerns accorpam ent of schools. The judges of the Court have ruled that the rational tion of the school network is the responsibility of regions.

the Minister to do is cash the setbacks and get back in line.

But how do you want to reform the school in this way?

In the case of the English language. If all the students chose to do English for five hours per week what they would do the teachers of French, English and German? Sovrannum treasuries to relocate? But where to relocate?

We want some administrative istrative judges to understand what a great problem would be created the application action of this decree.

A spear is broken in favor of the Minister, though.

It 's true that our pupils at the end of the course can not speak any of the two language they have studied. But the problem is not in the number of hours. The problem is the teaching methodology and the teacher essionalità teachers. On what you have to invest. We can not continue to conjugate verbs (useful grammar, for heaven's sake) and expect that ultimately the student must speak in English, French or another language. A question arises: how many students have never before had a book in its original language without translation in the face? Or how many students have never seen a movie in the original language? And the conversation in the language?

The truth is that the only reason the educational reform proposed by the governments of left and right moves from the need to cut the school to save money. But these reforms do not mod ernizzano school and not make it more efficient and effective. Not for the cuts but where you cut. The real problem is that the cuts are made to the school in the wrong places.

If I want to be nice to see a tree grow better and I cut the dead branches and prune the leaves. This does it take to school. Dead branches are numerous and Pon Pof projects that are wasting time and money in abundance. Of course I am referring to those projects that have nothing to do with the curriculum of the pupils. You could start

cut from here.
