Cov neeg kos npe sau npe hauv qab
Tau ntau xyoo dhau los, Pentagon, kev saib xyuas cov tub rog, thiab cov koom haum tau ua haujlwm ua haujlwm kom nthuav dav lawv qhov chaw nyob hauv K-12 qhov chaw kawm thiab hauv cov tsev kawm ntawv pej xeem. Kev sib koom ua ke ntawm kev ua tub rog, kev saib xyuas kev xav tso tsheb hlau luam thiab lub hauv paus, thiab kev koom ua ke ntawm peb cov kev kawm pej xeem tau rhuav tshem cov kev cai ywj pheej ntawm pej xeem kev kawm. Nws yog ib qho qauv uas, yog tias tso cai txuas ntxiv mus, yuav ua rau lub hauv paus tseem ceeb ntawm kev tswj hwm pej xeem tsis muaj zog thiab, thaum kawg, peb lub teb chaws txoj kev cog lus rau kev coj noj coj ua.
Cov neeg kos npe ntawm tsab ntawv no ntseeg tias nws yog qhov tseem ceeb rau txhua tus neeg tawm tswv yim ntawm kev ncaj ncees, kev thaj yeeb thiab ib puag ncig kom paub txog qhov xwm txheej txaus ntshai ntawm qhov teeb meem no thiab tawm tsam nws nrog kev txhob txwm ua.
TSEV KAWM NTAWV TXOJ CAI RAU CIVILIAN EDUCATION
Qhov kev ua phem tshaj plaws sab nrauv los siv lub tsev kawm ntawv los qhia txog lub tswv yim nrog kev cuam tshuam rau lub neej ntev los ntawm kev tsim tub rog. Ob xyoo dhau los, nrog kev tshaj xov xwm me me lossis kev tawm tsam rau pej xeem, Pentagon txoj kev koom tes hauv tsev kawm ntawv thiab cov tub ntxhais kawm lub neej tau loj hlob tuaj. Tam sim no, piv txwv li:
- Txhua hnub kawm ntawv, tsawg kawg ib nrab lab cov tub ntxhais kawm theem siab tuaj koom cov chav kawm Junior ROTC kom tau txais kev qhia los ntawm cov tub ceev xwm so haujlwm uas raug xaiv los ntawm Pentagon los qhia nws tus kheej cov keeb kwm thiab pej xeem. Cov tub ntxhais kawm no raug xaiv "qib" thiab ua kom ntseeg tau tias kev ua tub rog thiab pej xeem muaj txiaj ntsig zoo ib yam, nrog rau qhov cuam tshuam tias kev mloog lus tsis txaus ntseeg rau txoj cai yog li ntawd yog ib qho kev ua pej xeem zoo.
- Cov tub rog tub rog academies tau raug tsim nyob rau hauv qee lub tsev kawm ntawv pej xeem (Chicago tam sim no muaj yim), qhov twg txhua tus tub ntxhais kawm tau txais kev ua tub rog hnyav thiab muaj txiaj ntsig.
- Ib lub network ntawm cov kev pab cuam txog tub rog tau nthuav tawm hauv ntau pua tsev kawm ntawv theem pib thiab theem nrab. Piv txwv yog Young Marines thiab Starbase cov kev pab cuam, thiab cov tub rog cov kev pab cuam uas nkag mus rau hauv cov tsev kawm ntawv nyob rau hauv lub cloak ntawm Science / Technology / Engineering / Math (STEM) kev kawm.
- Cov tub rog nrhiav neeg ua haujlwm raug cob qhia kom nrhiav "tsev kawm ntawv tswv cuab" raws li lawv lub hom phiaj (saib: "Phau Ntawv Qhia Txog Tub Rog Lub Tsev Kawm Ntawv Recruiting Program"). Lawv nquag nyob hauv cov chav kawm, thaj chaw noj su thiab ntawm cov rooj sib txoos muaj txiaj ntsig ntawm kev nyiam ua tub rog, tub rog thiab, thaum kawg, kev ua tsov ua rog.
- Txij li xyoo 2001, tsoomfwv txoj cai lij choj tau hla dhau lub tsev kawm ntawv pej xeem kev ywj pheej thiab tsev neeg ntiag tug thaum nws los tso cov tub ntxhais kawm cov ntaub ntawv tiv toj rau tub rog. Tsis tas li ntawd, txhua xyoo ntau txhiab lub tsev kawm ntawv tso cai rau cov tub rog los tswj nws qhov kev xeem nkag - ASVAB - txog 10th-12th cov tub ntxhais kawm, tso cai rau cov neeg nrhiav neeg ua haujlwm hla txoj cai lij choj tiv thaiv niam txiv txoj cai thiab kev ceev ntiag tug ntawm cov menyuam yaus thiab nkag mus rau cov ntaub ntawv ntiag tug ntawm ntau pua txhiab tus tub ntxhais kawm.
TSEV KAWM NTAWV RAU PUBLIC EDUCATION
Kev siv zog los ntawm cov pab pawg sab nraud hauv tsev kawm ntawv txhawm rau txhaj tshuaj tiv thaiv kev tiv thaiv thiab kev lag luam muaj txiaj ntsig rau hauv cov txheej txheem kev kawm tau mus rau ntau xyoo. Hauv ib qho piv txwv tsis ntev los no ntawm txoj cai-tis kev cuam tshuam kev kawm, Lub New York Times tau tshaj tawm tias cov pab pawg tshuaj yej, siv cov phiaj xwm kev qhia thiab cov ntawv pleev xim, tau thawb cov tsev kawm ntawv kom "qhia kev saib xyuas kev txhais lus ntawm Txoj Cai Lij Choj, qhov twg tsoomfwv yog qhov muaj kev nkag siab thiab tsis txaus siab nyob hauv lub neej ntawm cov neeg Asmeskas kev ywj pheej." (Saib:http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/17/us/constitution-has-its-day-amid-a-struggle-for-its-spirit.html )
Cov tuam txhab lag luam tau tshaj tawm lawv cov kev cuam tshuam hauv cov tsev kawm ntawv nrog cov khoom siv xws li Channel One, qhov kev kaw xov tooj cua kaw uas tshaj tawm cov ntsiab lus lag luam txhua hnub rau cov tub ntxhais kawm cov neeg tuaj saib hauv 8,000 lub tsev kawm ntawv. Qee lub tuam txhab tau ua tiav hauv kev ntseeg cov tsev kawm ntawv kom kos npe rau daim ntawv cog lus tshwj xeeb rau pizza, dej qab zib thiab lwm yam khoom lag luam, nrog rau lub hom phiaj ntawm kev qhia cov khoom lag luam thaum ntxov rau cov menyuam yaus. Ib tsab ntawv ceeb toom National Education Policy Center tau tshaj tawm thaum lub Kaum Ib Hlis 2011 sau txog ntau txoj hauv kev uas kev lag luam / tsev kawm ntawv koom tes ua mob rau cov menyuam kawm ntawv los ntawm kev xa cov tub ntxhais kawm txoj kev xav "rau hauv kev sib koom ua ke" thiab ua rau lawv muaj peev xwm xav txog kev thuam. (Saib: http://nepc.colorado.edu/publication/schoolhouse-commercialism-2011 )
Txoj kev loj hlob ntawm cov neeg koom tes hauv kev sib tw dovetails nrog rau cov txheej txheem koom nrog kev lag luam los rhuav tshem Asmeskas txoj kev kawm pej xeem. Cov xeev thoob plaws lub tebchaws tab tom txo kev siv nyiaj kawm ntawv, tawm haujlwm cov xibfwb qhia ntawv pej xeem, txwv cov cai sib tham sib tham, thiab ua rau cov xibfwb qhia ntawv tsis txaus ntseeg. Muaj kev nthuav dav ntawm charter thiab "cyber" cov tsev kawm ntawv uas txhawb nqa kev koom tes hauv kev lag luam ntiag tug thiab kev thawb mus rau cov tsev kawm ntawv tau txais txiaj ntsig uas cov nyiaj them rau cov tuam txhab tswj hwm ntiag tug raug khi ncaj qha rau cov tub ntxhais kawm kev ua tau zoo ntawm cov qauv kev ntsuas. Cov nyhuv cumulative yog kev tsim cov koom haum uas tsim kom muaj lub tswv yim simplistic uas sib koom ua ke ntawm kev noj haus nrog kev pab cuam. (Saib: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/12/michigan-privatize-public-education )
Kev koom tes ntawm kev kawm los ntawm cov tsev kawm ntawv charter thiab kev tswj hwm kev loj hlob ntawm cov tsev kawm qib siab yog lwm qhov teeb meem rau kev kawm pej xeem. Diane Ravitch phau ntawv Txoj cai yuam kev ( http://www.npr.org/2013/09/27/225748846/diane-ravitch-rebukes-education-activists-reign-of-error ) thiab Henry A. Giroux phau ntawv tshiab tshaj plaws, Neoliberalism Tsov Rog ntawm Kev Kawm Qib Siab, ( http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/22548-henry-giroux-beyond-neoliberal-miseducation ) muab cov taw qhia rau lub luag haujlwm tsis txaus ntseeg ntawm cov tuam txhab muaj txiaj ntsig hauv kev kawm pej xeem.
Vim li cas qhov no tshwm sim? Giroux sau tseg tias "Chris Hedges, tus qub New York Times neeg sau xov xwm, tshwm rau Kev ywj pheej tam sim no! xyoo 2012 thiab hais rau tus tswv tsev Amy Goodman tias tsoomfwv tau siv qee qhov $ 600 nphom hauv ib xyoos rau kev kawm - "thiab cov tuam txhab xav tau."
Tseem muaj qee lub koom haum txhawb nqa kev siv zog los qhia txog keeb kwm thiab kev qhia pej xeem los ntawm qhov kev xav tau zoo, xws li Howard Zinn Education Project (https://zinnedproject.org ) thiab Cov Tsev Kawm Ntawv Rov xav dua ( http://www.rethinkingschools.org ). Thiab ib qho kev txav me me ua haujlwm tawm tsam Channel One thiab kev lag luam ntawm lub tsev kawm ntawv ib puag ncig (xws li, http://www.commercialalert.org/issues/education thiab ( http://www.obligation.org ).
NRHIAV COV NYIAJ NTSIM
Yog vim li cas thiaj muaj kev cia siab txog qhov kev hloov pauv no yog tias peb saib, piv txwv li, ntawm qee qhov kev ua tiav hauv cov hauv paus kev siv zog los txwv kev ua tub rog hauv tsev kawm ntawv. Xyoo 2009, cov tub ntxhais kawm ntawv theem siab, cov niam txiv thiab cov kws qhia ntawv hauv lub nroog uas muaj kev saib xyuas, tub rog-tswj lub nroog San Diego tau ua tiav hauv lawv lub tsev kawm ntawv pawg thawj coj xaiv los kaw JROTC firing ranges ntawm kaum ib lub tsev kawm ntawv theem siab. Ob xyoos tom qab, tib lub koom haum tau txais lub tsev kawm ntawv pawg thawj coj kom dhau txoj cai txwv tsis pub muaj tub rog nyob hauv txhua lub tsev kawm ntawv. Txawm hais tias cov kev pib no muaj tsawg tsawg, cov yeej zoo sib xws tau yeej hauv lwm lub tsev kawm ntawv thiab hauv xeev hauv Hawaii thiab Maryland.
Kuj tseem muaj qee lub koom haum txhawb kev siv zog los qhia txog keeb kwm thiab kev qhia pej xeem los ntawm a Kev pom zoo, xws li Zinn Education Project (www.zinnedproject.org) thiab Rethinking Schools (www.rethinkingschools.org). Thiab ib qho kev txav me me ua haujlwm tawm tsam Channel One thiab kev lag luam ntawm lub tsev kawm ntawv ib puag ncig (xws li, http://www.commercialalert.org/issues/education/ thiab http://www.obligation.org/ ).
Raws li kev cog lus thiab ua tau zoo raws li cov kev siv zog no, lawv daj ntseg hauv qhov sib piv rau qhov loj ntawm cov pab pawg twg nyob rau sab nraud ntawm kev nom kev tswv tau ua haujlwm nyob rau hauv ib puag ncig kev kawm los tswj kev tswj hwm kev tswj hwm, kev ua tub rog thiab lub zog koom nrog.
Nws yog lub sijhawm rau cov koom haum vam meej, cov hauv paus ntsiab lus thiab kev tshaj tawm los tawm tsam qhov no thiab koom nrog kev sib npaug hauv kev kawm. Nws yog ib qho tseem ceeb tshwj xeeb tshaj yog tias ntau lub koom haum sib koom ua ke los tawm tsam qhov kev cuam tshuam loj zuj zus ntawm Pentagon hauv K-12 cov tsev kawm ntawv thiab cov tsev kawm qib siab. Txhim kho qhov tseem ceeb ntawm kev xav thiab kev coj noj coj ua hauv peb kab lis kev cai tsis tuaj yeem ua tsis tau yam tsis muaj kev txwv tsis pub ua tub rog thiab koom nrog kev koom tes ntawm pej xeem kev kawm.
