Education in Brazil




It is expected that education in Brazil solve alone , the country's social problems . However , we must first improve the training of teachers , as teacher development implies the development of students and the school.

By proposing a reflection on the Brazilian education , it is worth remembering that only in the mid-twentieth century the process of expanding basic education in the country began , and that its growth in terms of public schools , took place in the late 1970s and early 1980s .

With this post, we can turn to national data :
Brazil ranks 53rd in education, among 65 surveyed countries ( PISA ) . Even with the social program that encouraged enrollment of 98 % of children between 6 and 12 years , 731,000 children are still out of school ( IBGE ) . Functional illiteracy of people between 15 and 64 was recorded at 28% in 2009 ( IBOPE ) , 34% of students coming to 5th year of schooling can not yet read ( Education for All ), 20 % of young people completing elementary school, and who live in big cities , have not mastered the use of reading and writing ( Education for All ) . Teachers are paid less than the minimum wage ( ET. al . , In the media ) .
Based on the data , many may become critical and even to ask questions about the advances , concluding that "if society changes , the school could only evolve with it " . Perhaps the good sense to suggest we think this way . However , we note that the evolution of society , in a way, makes the school adapts to modern life, but defensively , late , without ensuring the elevation of the level of education .
So, now no more by common sense but by custom, "guilt " would tend to fall on the teaching profession . Thus , teachers become targets or are in the crossfire of many social and political hopes in crisis today. The educational system outside the critical charge of teachers increasingly work as education , alone , had to solve all social problems .
We already know that is not enough , as it was thought in the 1950s and 1960s , providing teachers with books and new teaching materials . The fact is that the quality of education is strongly connected to the quality of teacher education . Another fact is that what the teacher thinks about teaching determines what the teacher does when teaching .
Teacher development is a precondition for the development of the school and, in general , experience shows that teachers are bad performers of the ideas of others. No reform , innovation or transformation - whatever you want to call it - will last without the teacher .
We must abandon the belief that teachers' attitudes are modified only to the extent that teachers perceive positive results in student learning . For a real change of belief and attitude , it would consider teachers as subjects . Subjects in professional activity, are driven to engage in formal learning situations .
Profound changes only happen when the training of teachers fail to be an update process , taken from the top down , and turn into a real learning process , as an individual and collective gain rather than as an assault .
Certainly , teachers can not be taken as only actors in this scenario . Can we agree that this situation is also the result of bit engagement and pressure from the population as a whole , contributing to the slowness . Still not quote the corporatism of the bodies responsible for the management - not only the education system but also of school units - and also many of our contemporaries who think , without daring to say aloud , " that if everyone was educated , who would sweep the streets ? "or who see no problem " to dismiss all of training high level when the available jobs do not require them . "
Meanwhile , we're still far from achieving the goal of literacy to all children up to 8 years of age and carrying the burden of a poor performance in IDEB . With the approval rate on average 0-10 , Brazilian students had a score of 4.6 in 2009 . The goal is to get the country to 6 in 2022 .
