universidad aprendizaje

En el debate actual sobre la Universidad se habla poco de lo que quizá es lo más importante: qué estamos haciendo. El diálogo abierto con el profesor, la discusión de casos, el trabajo en equipo, la investigación sencilla, la reflexión y defensa pública de un tema son desgraciadamente más la excepción que la regla en las aulas universitarias. Y cuando lo hacemos nos maravillamos, docentes y estudiantes, de lo divertido e interesante que puede ser dar y recibir clase.

"We don't have oil or other riches. Knowledge is the thing Finnish people have,"
Finnish educators believe they get better overall results by concentrating on weaker students rather than by pushing gifted students ahead of everyone else. The idea is that bright students can help average ones without harming their own progress.

- Teachers must hold master's degrees, and the profession is highly competitive: More than 40 people may apply for a single job. Their salaries are similar to those of U.S. teachers, but they generally have more freedom.
- One explanation for the Finns' success is their love of reading. Parents of newborns receive a government-paid gift pack that includes a picture book. Some libraries are attached to shopping malls, and a book bus travels to more remote neighborhoods like a Good Humor truck.
- Finnish teachers with chalkboards instead of whiteboards, and lessons shown on overhead projectors instead of PowerPoint.
- Finland separates students for the last three years of high school based on grades; 53% go to high school and the rest enter vocational school. (All 15-year-old students took the PISA test.) Finland has a high-school dropout rate of about 4% -- or 10% at vocational schools -- compared with roughly 25% in the U.S., according to their respective education departments.
- Finnish students have little angstata -- or teen angst -- about getting into the best university, and no worries about paying for it. College is free. There is competition for college based on academic specialties -- medical school, for instance. But even the best universities don't have the elite status of a Harvard.
- the Finns don't begin school until age 7, a year later than most U.S. first-graders.

- Necesitamos mejores programas vocacionales. - on 2008-06-17
Add Sticky Note
There is no silly “college for all” mantra and there certainly isn’t a push to have all students sit through a trigonometry class if that is not relevant to the student. More importantly, there is also no negative connotation to the concept of vocational school.

- While “the U.S. holds teachers accountable for teaching” in Finland “they hold the students accountable for learning.”
- Murray’s opinion, and we concur, is that more American students should examine the option of vocational education/training.
- Notes Murray, finding a lawyer or physician is relatively easy but finding a plumber, carpenter or other qualified tradesman in America actually tends to be far more difficult.

- Most importantly, theses schools are free to students.
- another set of higher education institutions called polytechnics is available, again for free.
- These schools offer a very close link to working life with a focus on developing expert skills for various different vocational sectors.
- higher education in America currently exacerbates existing social disparities and inequalities. In America, a parent’s income becomes a key component of the higher education process. Therefore, a parents’ social class is a significant predictor of participation in higher education.
- higher education in America today tends to perpetuate the socioeconomic stratification that currently exists.

aprendizaje refuerzos

Los estudiantes reciben pagos por portarse bien, realizar sus tareas u obtener buenas calificaciones. El dinero es de fantasía. Pero puede ser usado en la tienda para comprar artículos como lapiceros con adornos de plumas en la punta, o cartucheras de lápices en forma de animal o borradores de colores.
