ISSUES
Budget
* kuwang ang budget nga gihatag sa
Eurocentric
*sunod-sunod rata sa mga taga gawas..
Wla jud ka.ayo mga laking pinoy. Mas
importante and IMPORTED kay sa LOCAL
E.g:
colonial histography
Culturally
and
gender
insensitive
educational system.
Women, the common tao and the indigenous
people are almost historically excluded
from the Philippine historiography in favor
of the men, heroes from Luzon and the
power elite. Women are marginalized and
trivialized even in language of education.
Take the case of the terms female lawyer
(as if lawyer as a profession is exclusive
only to men) and manpower (which should
have been human resources or human
capital to be more politically correct).
Sub-standard textbooks.
Some
textbooks
which
are
already
circulation are both poorly written and
haphazardly edited. Take the case of the
Asya: Noon at Ngayon with an identified
total number of more than 400 historical
errors. Unfortunately, it is just one of the
many other similar atrociously written
textbooks which are yet to be identified
and exposed. This is a classic case of
profit-centeredness without regard to
social
accountability.
Widespread contractualization.
In
the
name
of
profit,
owners
and
administrators of several private schools
commonly
practice
contractualization
among their faculty members. Contractual
employees unlike their regular/tenured
counterparts are not entitled to fringe
benefits which consequently reduces the
over-all cost of their business operation.
Job insecurity demeans the ranks of the
faculty
members.
Copy-pasting culture.
Over-dependence to the cyberspace has
dramatically reduced the capability of
students (even teachers) to undertake
research. Copy-pasting has even turned
into
a
norm
among
some
students
whenever they are tasked to submit a
research paper or even a film review.
Needless to say, plagiarism has already
transformed into a more sophisticated form
in the context of todays electronic age.
Mcdonaldized education.
The system, methodology, and even
content of education in the Philippines
are mere haphazard transplantation from
the West. It is therefore Eurocentric,
culturally insensitive, and non-reflective
of the local milieu. This is based on the
xenocentric (foreign-centered) premise
that other culture or system is far more
superior
than
ones
own.
Monolithic education.
Some
educators
in
the
name
of
conservatism and for the sake of
convenience, prefer the old-style teaching
paradigm where they view themselves as
the fountain of knowledge and their
students as nothing but empty vessels to
be
filled
up
(banking
method
of
education).
Modern
education
has
ushered in learner-centered approach to
education (from being the sage in the
stage to just a guide on the side).
