ESTATUTO DOCENTE: a greek tragedy

Mario Waissbluth is a Universidad de Chile professor who carried out a research about “estatuto docente”

This is the evaluation that teachers have to do in order to know their ability level. This evaluation started 4 years ago and almost a half of the teachers have been assessed by this moment.


According to Waissbluth’s opinion the great guilty is our educational system that allows people, who have 400 points in P.S.U., studying for being teachers, and people who get those score in that exam are not able to comprehend what they are reading, even after leaving college and having their professional degree as a teacher.
I am as student for being a teacher; I do not feel that things are too bad right now. Yes, it is probably that old teachers do not want to be assessed because they left college and they never came back to study again but I do feel that a new generation of teacher is coming. They are some people who really want to change the old way to deal with students and teaching a subject.
