As regards teaching, which is something that we’re also very concerned about—we’re not the kind to point fingers, but rather we believe that certain things should be done jointly, you know? That solutions must be reached jointly by the primary and secondary levels, with greater articulation. Because there are several deficits in the students entering the first year, and we understand what happens in primary school, but we need to be able to work in a more articulated way with them.
So we… we reflect a lot about primary school, we encourage our teachers to teach applying the perspective of primary school teachers regarding certain matters related to the pedagogical look, so they don’t see contents as isolated, as fragmented, so we can teach in a much more comprehensive way through projects and responding to our students’ interests, taking into account their context and how we can intervene.
In this sense, we consider the current texts that the syllabus design makes available to us, with the authors’ look. Like I said at the beginning of my previous answer, we try to tell teachers to get training and go to certain places that we believe are important and necessary in order to read and to put together a way of teaching. I can only speak for myself, but I mean, we believe that education is not isolated from anything; therefore politics are present in education and we want teachers that have, say, a political look and understand that when they teach a class they’re positioned in a certain political place and that they shouldn’t teach in a naive way, believing that theoretically, what they’re teaching is something, say, pure and apolitical, but rather that, regardless of the teacher’s personal views, he or she should understand the authors’ views, and be aware of them. Teachers shouldn’t teach a class believing that they are just following the syllabus design.
Kuhusu ufundishaji, ambayo ni kitu ambacho sisi pia ni wasiwasi sana kuhusu sisi si aina ya kuonyesha vidole, lakini badala ya kuamini kwamba mambo fulani yanapaswa kufanyika kwa pamoja, unajua? Suluhisho hilo lazima lipatikane kwa pamoja na ngazi za msingi na sekondari, kwa usemi mkubwa. Kuna tatizo kubwa la wanafunzi wa mwaka wa kwanza, na tunaelewa kinachotokea katika shule ya msingi, lakini tunahitaji kuwa na uwezo wa kufanya kazi kwa njia ya wazi zaidi. Kwa hivyo sisi... tunafikiria sana juu ya shule ya msingi, tunawatia moyo walimu wetu kufundisha kwa kutumia mtazamo wa walimu wa shule ya msingi kuhusu mambo fulani yanayohusiana na mtazamo wa ufundishaji, ili wasione yaliyomo kama ya kutengwa, kama imegawanyika, ili tuweze kufundisha kwa njia kamili zaidi kupitia miradi na kujibu maslahi ya wanafunzi wetu, kwa kuzingatia muktadha wao na jinsi tunaweza kuingilia kati. Katika maana hii, sisi kuzingatia maandishi ya sasa kwamba kubuni syllabus hufanya inapatikana kwa sisi, na waandishi 'kuangalia. Kama nilivyosema mwanzoni mwa jibu langu la awali, tunajaribu kuwaambia walimu kupata mafunzo na kwenda mahali fulani tunayoamini ni muhimu na muhimu ili kusoma na kuweka pamoja njia ya kufundisha. Ninaweza tu kuzungumza kwa ajili yangu mwenyewe, lakini mimi maana, tunaamini kwamba elimu si kutengwa na chochote; kwa hiyo siasa ni sasa katika elimu na tunataka walimu ambao kuwa, kusema, mtazamo wa kisiasa na kuelewa kwamba wakati wao kufundisha darasa wao ni nafasi katika nafasi fulani ya kisiasa na kwamba hawapaswi kufundisha kwa njia ya ubinafsi, kuamini kwamba kinadharia, kile wao ni kufundisha ni kitu, kusema, safi na apolitical, lakini badala ya kwamba, bila kujali maoni ya mwalimu binafsi, yeye au yeye lazima kuelewa maoni ya waandishi. Walimu hawapaswi kufundisha darasa wakiamini kwamba wanafuata tu muundo wa mtaala.
