Mérito ou Mediocridade no Trabalho de Arvind Kejriwal em Delhi
While Arvind Kejriwal has shown some merit in his tenure as Chief Minister of Delhi, his efforts in the realm of education have been far from commendable. A close examination of state-run schools in Delhi reveals that although a few have been renovated, the improvement is merely skin-deep, concealing significant underlying issues.
Renova??o Mínima e Apresenta??o Enganosa
A significant number of Delhi Government schools have undergone renovations, but these efforts amount to mere superficial changes. The essence of these modernizations is a facade, used to mislead the public about the true condition of our educational institutions. Students and parents are often misled by these appearances, unaware of the actual state of these so-called ldquo;world-classrdquo; schools.
Desafios na Sala de Aula
In many of these schools, classroom sizes are exorbitant, with more than 50 students in each, sometimes topping 100. Such large numbers make it impossible for teachers to give individual attention to every student, often straining their voice and leaving them unable to effectively teach. The basic need for adequate teacher-student interaction is severely compromised, leading to a decline in student performance and teachers bearing the brunt of the criticism.
Responsabilidades Assédiantes
The administrative burden on teachers extends beyond their core responsibilities of teaching. The government has failed to employ sufficient clerical and administrative personnel, forcing teachers to perform these tasks in addition to their duties. This overcrowding of teachers exacerbates their workload and distracts from the primary objective of education.
Manipula??o dos Resultados
When students' performance inevitably drops, the administration often resorts to altering exam results to cover up the lack of improvements. Higher-ranking officials pressure teachers to manipulate these results to ensure that the government’s achievements in education can be reported to the nation. This unethical practice undermines the integrity of the education system and the trust placed in its institutions.
Novas Disciplinas e Insuficiência de Recursos
The introduction of new subjects like ldquo;Happiness, rdquo; ldquo;Desh Bhakti, rdquo; and ldquo;EMCrdquo; is designed to address new learning objectives, but the responsibility for teaching these subjects falls on an already overburdened teaching staff. Since no additional trained teachers have been hired to handle these new subjects, the process has become a heavy additional burden on teachers, who often have to teach an increased number of classes.
Discussing these problems would be overwhelming, yet it is clear that the so-called ldquo;world-class schoolsrdquo; have numerous drawbacks that go unaddressed.
While Arvind Kejriwal’s administration has had some positive impacts, it is important to critically evaluate its performance in areas like education. The current state of affairs highlights a need for systemic changes to address the underlying issues in Delhi’s educational institutions.
It is disheartening to see that while Kejriwal can find time to criticize the central government but has limited attention and resources to handle major issues in his own domain. The balance must be restored, ensuring that the administration is equally focused on addressing critical problems that directly impact the lives of citizens.
