22. EXA-Merde ¡Exámenes a la Merde!

Exa-Shit: Testing the Shit! is the rallying cry emerged in the
University of Malaga to provoke deep reflection and radical
from education and science, given the unsustainability of the
Province of Malaga, the highest of the European Union. Violence
structural examinations and conventional classrooms is pure Inquisition
XXI century, and does not stand the slightest criticism against
most current science. We could not aspire to a different world if
follow him ignoring what happens in classrooms.
Exa-Shit: Testing to fuck! is a struggle that affects us all @ s
and that spreads quickly among students, as playing a
point of greatest interest.
"A Guantanamo in the Classroom"
(Letter sent to Amnesty International)
Dear / Colleagues / as Amnesty International:
1) We support all initiatives. But we'd like to know if any
have publicly denounced once more widespread torture,
probably in the world today. We refer to reviews
conventional and conventional educational classrooms.
2) most current science in mind, testing and
hierarchical structure of the conventional classroom, do not stand the slightest
critical.
They are true "Guantánamos" in clear contradiction with a vision
truly open and democratic society and education.
3) We are writing from the University of Malaga, after learning,
sadly, that the Province of Malaga is the most sustainable (the most
destroyed) of the European Union. It is known also that the State
Spanish has the dubious record of being the third consecutive year, the
Planet polluter state.
4) At the same time we learned that Spain, and Andalusia are the
tail in education systems in the European and Spanish,
respectively.
5) This explosive cocktail of records puts us in front of a
really unique opportunity to reflect, radical and deeply,
on
legitimacy (teacher) of the UMA to assess knowledge
socio-environmental sustainability, given their alleged complicity with
the destruction of the province and country.
6) may be interpreted as complicity moral choice
each person, whether university professor or other professional
any.
But when it is a university professor, and related areas
to sustainability, this complicity implies an absence of
real legitimacy in assessing students in these subjects
vital for the conservation and survival, not only of the
ecosystems, but also of the human species itself.
7) "EXA-SHIT" (Testing to Shit!) Is the theme for a
group of college / as of Malaga (ISMA: Initiatives
Sustainability, Environment and Self-Management) to start this debate
UMA urgent, since there are also numerous projects
infrastructure to further destroy this country, whose
capital Adjective an illustrious poet in his day as "The City of
Paradise. "
8) This text is also a plea for help
Amnesty International urgent, to abuse (examinations and classroom
conventional) everyday that it remains a blight on our
hiperdesarrollistas territories, where the quality of life does not stop,
incomprehensibly, to descend.
9) The future of humanity is largely, in decisions
that are taken daily in the North power centers of the world. And
these decisions depend on the quality of learning processes
and teaching in which are embedded / female students, as
futures
managers / as in society.
10) We have all the knowledge and skills needed to exit
from the current downturn in which humanity finds itself. But there,
by
many opinions, a plug that obstructs the flow of these
knowledge and skills from universities towards society. And
this cap are exams and conventional classrooms. Our
experimental proposal for the next semester at the University
Malaga is to invite the university community, for once, to
experience other more democratic forms of assessment (there
many possibilities), and other ways to structure the classroom (for
example in circle).
11) Of course there are more and more universities in the world with
other evaluation systems, and lower classes "militarized", where the
teacher has the authority of his experience, but not exercised
from authoritarianism. Class thereby becomes a
team
Multiple action research, where learning is
infinitely superior, as the students are
infinitely
motivated and have infinitely less scary.
12) Our aim is to "flip the tables" and get
that the Province of Malaga in a few years become the most
Sustainable
European Union. It might seem unattainable but, the
Malaga society has "the upper hand" to demand a
360 degree change from the current situation.
and 13) to round the issue, the economic crisis "as it smells
sucks ", so the sooner we wake up to this stark reality,
before you understand the great opportunity before us to
make the University of Malaga in perhaps the most famous
World.
A lively and supportive hug
EXA-SHIT! Testing the Shit!
