Amaphuzu avelele okuqonda

Umqedazwe we-COVID-19 usheshise ukuhlanganiswa kobuchwepheshe emfundweni ye-K-12, ngothisha abasebenzisa izinsiza zokuhlela zedijithali nezinto zokufundisa. Ukufunda komuntu siqu nokwesekwa ngokomzwelo sekubalulekile, kuyilapho amathuluzi okufunda ahlanganisiwe angasetshenziswa endaweni ebonakalayo neyokubukana ubuso nobuso edingeka kakhulu. Sekukonke, ukusungula izinto ezintsha ezikoleni ezizimele kungaholela ekwahlukeni kwamasiko, intuthuko yezobuchwepheshe, imiphumela ethuthukisiwe yezifundo, kanye nabasebenzi abanokuncintisana kakhulu.

I-K-12 umongo wokusungula imfundo yangasese

Ngokocwaningo lwango-2021 olwenziwa yinkampani ebonisana ne-Ernst & Young, inkinga ye-COVID-19 yaholela ekuhlanganisweni ngempumelelo kobuchwepheshe esakhiweni semfundo sase-US K-12 njengomphumela oqondile woshintsho oludingekayo lokufunda ku-inthanethi. Ukufanekisa, cishe amaphesenti angama-60 othisha abasebenzisa izinsiza zokuhlela zedijithali baqale ukwenza kanjalo phakathi nalolu bhubhane. Ukwengeza, ukusetshenziswa kwansuku zonke kwezinto zokufundisa zedijithali kukhuphuke kusuka kumaphesenti angama-28 ngaphambi kobhubhane kuya kumaphesenti angama-52 ngesikhathi sodlame. 

Ngaphezu kwesigamu sabaphenduli bothisha baqale ukusebenzisa amathuluzi okuhlela edijithali ngokungaguquguquki ngo-2020. Lokhu kukhula kokwamukelwa kwalawa mathuluzi kuhlanganisa zonke izigaba zomkhiqizo, okuhlanganisa izinhlelo zokuphatha ukufunda (i-LMS) njengeCanvas noma i-Schoology, nokudalwa kokuqukethwe noma izinkundla zokuhlanganyela ezifana ne-Google Drayivu. noma Amaqembu e-Microsoft. Ngaphezu kwalokho, othisha bakhombise intshisekelo emikhiqizweni engahlanganiswa nezinto zokufundisa. 

Olunye uguquko lwedijithali kwezemfundo ukusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe ukukhuthaza ukusebenza kahle nokusebenzisana okuthuthukisiwe. Kubafundi, lokhu kungase kusho ukuhambisa imisebenzi yokuphrakthiza noma umsebenzi wesikole wasekhaya ku-inthanethi noma ukuhlanganyela kudokhumenti eyabelwe yephrojekthi yeqembu. Kothisha, lokhu kungase kuhlanganise ukwenza ukuhlola noma imisebenzi ezokwenziwa ku-inthanethi kusetshenziswa amathuluzi angenza ukugreda ngokuzenzakalelayo noma ukusebenza ndawonye nabanye othisha ezingeni labo lebanga noma endaweni yesifundo.

Umthelela ophazamisayo

Ukulingana kwedijithali kubalulekile ekukhuthazeni ukuqanjwa kabusha kwezemfundo. Ngaphandle kokusungula ingqalasizinda ye-inthanethi ethembekile, izikole zidinga ukuqinisekisa ukuthi bonke abafundi banolwazi namakhono adingekayo okusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe nezinsizakalo ukuze bazibandakanye nokuqukethwe okuphelele nokufinyelelekayo. Kanjalo, abahlinzeki besevisi ye-inthanethi bangase basungule ubudlelwano nezifunda zesikole ukuze bakhe ingqalasizinda edingekayo futhi baqinisekise ukuthi akukho ukuphazamiseka.

Ukwenza kube ngokwakho nakho kuzoba okubalulekile uma ubuchwepheshe buhlanganiswa emakilasini. Isikhathi sokufunda esiqondene nawe senza abafundi bakwazi ukusebenza ngabodwana kumaphrojekthi noma emisebenzini elungele ngokukhethekile izintshisekelo zabo namakhono abo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, lo bhubhane ugcizelele isidingo sokufunda ngokomzwelo njengoba abantu besabela ezinkingeni ngezindlela ezahlukahlukene. Othisha babhekene nenselelo ekabili yokulawula inhlalakahle yabo yemizwa kanye neyabafundi babo.

Njengoba ukufunda okuguquguqukayo kuba okulindelekile esikhundleni sesici, amathuluzi okufunda ahlanganisiwe cishe azodingeka kakhulu kunangaphambili. Amathuluzi angasetshenziswa ngobuhlakani endaweni ebonakalayo neyobuso nobuso angase adingeke njengoba izikole ezizimele zibhekana nezinselele zokufunda zabafundi ababuyela kancane kancane ezifundweni zasekilasini kuyilapho besebenzisa amathuluzi okuhlanganyela kanye nezinkundla ze-e-class. Ama-Startups angase aqale ukugxila ekunikezeni lezi zixazululo, ngokubambisana nabahlinzeki bezixazululo zobuhlakani bokwenziwa.

Imithelela yokusungulwa kwemfundo yangasese ye-K-12

Imithelela ebanzi ye-K-12 yemfundo yangasese ingase ihlanganise: 

• Izinqubo zokusungula eziyimpumelelo ezamukelwa izikole zikahulumeni, okuholela ezinguqukweni zesistimu emkhakheni wezemfundo. Izikole ezizimele nazo zingabumba ama-ajenda oshintsho lwezemfundo futhi zimelele izinqubomgomo ezisekela ukusungula izinto ezintsha.
• Ukwehlukahlukana kwamasiko phakathi kwemiphakathi yezikole, okungakhuthaza ukuqonda nokubekezelelana kwamasiko ahlukene phakathi kwabafundi, kubalungiselele umhlaba ohlangene.
• Ukuthuthukiswa nokwamukelwa kwamathuluzi amasha okufundisa, izinkundla, nezindlela. Ngokuhlanganisa ubuchwepheshe, abafundi bangathola amakhono abalulekile okufunda nokubhala kwedijithali futhi balungiselele izidingo zeminyaka ye-AI.
• Imiphumela yezemfundo ethuthukisiwe ngokusebenzisa izinqubo zokufundisa ezisekelwe ebufakazini, izindlela zokufunda eziqondene nawe, nokuhlola okuqhutshwa yidatha. Lezi zici zingathuthukisa ukuzizwisa kwabafundi futhi zibalungiselele kangcono imfundo ephakeme noma imisebenzi yesikhathi esizayo.
• Ukwandisa ukuzibandakanya kwabazali emfundweni ngokusebenzisa izinkundla zokuxhumana ezinikwe amandla ezobuchwepheshe. Abazali bangaba nokufinyelela okukhulu ekuqhubekeleni phambili kwezingane zabo, izinto zekharikhulamu, kanye nokuxhumana kukathisha nomzali, okugqugquzela ubudlelwano obuqinile phakathi kwekhaya nesikole.
• Imfundo yeqophelo eliphezulu engaba neqhaza ekuqhudelaneni kwabasebenzi ezingeni likazwelonke nelomhlaba wonke. Ngokuhlomisa abafundi ngamakhono adingekayo ekhulwini lama-21, njengokucabanga okujulile, ukusungula izinto, nokuxazulula izinkinga, izikole ezizimele zingasiza amazwe aphumelele emhlabeni okhulayo oxhumene nokuncintisana.
• Izikole ezizimele zibeka phambili ukusimama kanye nemikhuba eco-friendly. Lezi zinqubo zingabandakanya ukusebenzisa izinhlelo zamandla avuselelekayo, ukwamukela imiklamo yezakhiwo eziluhlaza, kanye nokuhlanganisa imfundo yezemvelo ohlelweni lwezifundo. 
• Amathuba emisebenzi kothisha abanolwazi lwezindlela zokufundisa eziqondene nawe, ubuchwepheshe bezemfundo, kanye nokwakhiwa kwekharikhulamu. Lezi zindima ezintsha zingase futhi zidinge ukuthuthukiswa kochwepheshe okuqhubekayo ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi othisha banamakhono adingekayo ukuze basebenzise lezi zinqubo ngempumelelo.

Imibuzo okufanele icatshangelwe

• Uma ungumzali, izikole zezingane zakho zisebenzisa kanjani izinto ezintsha ezinhlelweni zazo zezifundo?
• Izikole ezizimele zingakunikeza kanjani ukulingana phakathi kolwazi lwedijithali namakhono athambile?
