Academics who execute the college curriculum ought to give college students the prospect to display their information, abilities and capabilities, and develop socially. Nonetheless, inappropriate attitudes and poor instructing strategies of some secondary college lecturers are gravely influencing youngsters’s conduct and studying.

Psychologists view that lecturers must have training impact, encourage college students to work in teams, and base their lessons on interplay, partnership and cooperation. The college have to be the place the place college students purchase the information, abilities and capabilities to non-violently remedy conflicts, study in an fascinating and artistic methods, work together and set up relations with others, grow to be extra tolerant, and apply their acquired information and experiences in on a regular basis life. It may be stated that lecturers play a key function in enabling all of this for them. Sadly, some public college lecturers scold, ridicule and insult college students who don’t perceive their classes, which adversely impacts their social improvement.

Mongolia nonetheless believes in conventional understanding of upbringing and training of kids, which considers fostering college students’ sense of self-worth, essential mind-set and making certain their security are primary abilities that have to be taught at college. In reality, the trendy pedagogical paradigm views that youngsters’s self-respect, competence and demanding mind-set will develop once they really expertise achievements at each their college and residential, and once they begin to take pleasure in studying new issues and study on their successes. It’s true that this isn’t the case in all Mongolian public colleges. Conversely, when youngsters are free to specific their views with out fear or embarrassment, some lecturers of state-owned colleges reply with anger and punishment, in addition to scold them for contradicting what they educate.

Specifically, college students report that when they don’t do their homework, disturb lessons, or “misbehave” in any method, some lecturers usually yell at them and insult them in entrance of their classmates. This misbehavior of lecturers can lead youngsters to really feel low self-confidence, low vanity, and lack of curiosity in classes. Subsequently, lecturers mustn’t solely lecture on the content material of classes within the conventional method but in addition depart house for communication between college students. In different phrases, they have to be capable of settle for pluralism and permit college students to freely focus on completely different concepts as lecturers’ attitudes are essential for what sort of particular person the scholar will grow to be and the way profitable she or he will likely be sooner or later.

Psychologist T.Khongorzul commented that some lecturers complain, saying issues similar to “Even once I defined to college students once more, they don’t perceive” and “They don’t hearken to me”. For these causes, lecturers usually see youngsters as dangerous learners, lazy, and so forth. Nonetheless, they don’t observe college students’ moods or ask why she or he is behaving on this method. Usually, youngsters’s actions are immediately associated to his or her emotional state, T.Khongorzul defined.

‘Academics’ attitudes affect college students’ acts of bullying and discrimination towards one another’

One other massive difficulty is discrimination and bullying within the college surroundings. However lecturers themselves are those who encourage and exemplify it, in response to consultants. If a trainer discriminates towards somebody, college students imitate. Violence within the college surroundings is on the rise as discrimination towards youngsters will increase attributable to variations in training and residing circumstances. Sadly, as a substitute of fixing this downside, there are lecturers who exacerbate it.  

Analysis has proven that youngsters usually tend to be bullied by lecturers and friends within the college surroundings. It additionally discovered that if lecturers deal with college students in a different way relying on their bodily and psychological circumstances, in addition to their studying and residing circumstances, it may have a detrimental influence on college students’ psychology.

In particular, throughout the “Methods to Forestall and Cease Bullying in Instructional Establishments” dialogue held on March 14, youngsters expressed their views on discrimination and bullying within the college surroundings.

“Even when youngsters are bullied, they don’t inform anybody else. After we inform our mother and father or lecturers that we now have been discriminated towards or bullied, they deal with it as whether it is regular. They are saying, ‘Since you’re a boy, you’ll be able to face this downside and overcome it’. This is quite common,” one boy criticized.

He additionally emphasised, “Mother and father and lecturers don’t take into consideration what their childhood was like in any respect. They deal with all the pieces from their present perspective. They are saying, ‘I used to be a youngster, too. I do know your downside,’ however they don’t perceive precisely how I really feel.”

 One other pupil defined, “We don’t need to inform our mother and father and lecturers something as a result of from an early age, we grow to be afraid of them. If we do one thing incorrect, lecturers say they’ll name our mother and father, convey them to the college and expel us from college.’ There’s a notion that if a trainer calls your mother and father, you may be expelled from the college or get scolded. I’m the top of the Youth Police at my college. When youngsters trigger hassle, they ask me to not notify lecturers, the coaching supervisor, social employee, or their mother and father. Kids can’t speak to adults as a result of they’re afraid of them.”  

Others talked about related issues. They stated, “Academics beat or verbally abuse us once we attempt to clarify ourselves or why we ‘misbehaved’. Subsequently, we’re not in a position to talk freely with lecturers. After we inform the college administration about this, they are saying that the trainer has sufficient expertise and abilities to resolve this matter appropriately.”

A twelfth grade male pupil stated throughout the dialogue, “I see social stereotypes as the basis reason for bullying. There are lots of youngsters who can’t specific their issues when they’re beneath strain. College students don’t inform anybody, particularly if the trainer discriminates towards or insults them. Academics’ attitudes additionally affect youngsters’s bullying. For instance, suppose a trainer calls a pupil ‘camel’ in entrance of kids. Because of this, his or her classmates will begin to name the scholar a ‘camel’. Academics themselves are exacerbating this.” 

Will training reform deal with lecturers’ ethics?

The Mongolian training system has at all times had a system of rewarding or punishing (behaviorism) to ensure that a baby to do one thing. Nonetheless, research have proven that this technique is simply efficient for a brief time period and doesn’t have an effect on lifelong behaviors and habits. Psychologists advise as a substitute to make use of motivation, which permits youngsters to study in any scenario and attempt towards reaching their targets with none rewards. Subsequently, it’s essential to create a authorized surroundings to deal with lecturers’ attitudes morality and ethics in addition to instructing strategies.

The federal government is at the moment creating a draft revision of the Regulation on Training to utterly reform the training sector. Primarily based on a survey of Mongolian secondary college lecturers, the invoice features a ethical training program for lecturers.  

In line with 2009, 2014, and 2021 surveys, most lecturers didn’t examine the idea and methodology of ethical training at trainer coaching universities. At the moment, the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities of the Mongolian State College of Training doesn’t have a separate ethical training course in its bachelor’s diploma program. Solely college students aspiring to grow to be social research and historical past lecturers examine lecturers’ ethics, in response to Affiliate Professor B.Oyuntsetseg.

In Japan, so as to grow to be eligible to show in secondary colleges, it’s essential to take a course on ethical concept and instructing strategies. The course covers the character of morality, the historical past of ethical training, the aim and content material of nationwide education schemes, instructing strategies, and strategies of creating and implementing ethical training plans. As a part of its training reform, Mongolia is finding out tips on how to incorporate this Japanese customary into its laws.

After all, lecturers with out ethical understanding and sensitivity should not in a position to talk correctly with youngsters, so there are nonetheless issues between lecturers and college students in public training establishments. Subsequently, this difficulty ought to be included within the legislation very fastidiously.

Consultants additionally say that lecturers additionally have to be extra fascinated by studying from their college students and attending to know them higher. Making college students really feel cherished makes them study higher. Regrettably, there’s a common tendency for low-paid public college lecturers to easily educate classes in response to the curriculum. Certainly, it’s good for any trainer to see college students succeed. Some enthusiastic lecturers should not paid additional, however they spend numerous time making ready their college students for soum, district, or nationwide competitions.

In an effort to correctly assess the work of such lecturers, the invoice on training consists of provisions to reward lecturers primarily based on college students’ educational efficiency. Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Training, Tradition, Science and Sports activities G.Damdinnyam stated that that is a very powerful reform within the training sector.

Minister of Training and Science L.Enkh-Amgalan introduced on March 10 that the ministry will transfer to a results-based financing system inside this month.

He highlighted, “The minimal wage has been permitted by Cupboard. Academics’ salaries can beccome any charge. Their work will likely be measured by youngsters’s studying outcomes. We have to transfer to a system the place good lecturers are paid increased than dangerous lecturers. The minimal trainer wage will likely be adopted and a results-based funding system will likely be launched in mid-March. A trainer who has labored for one yr won’t obtain the identical wage as a trainer who has labored for 20 years.”

Figuring out and rewarding lecturers’ achievements primarily based on educational efficiency is one approach to enhance their salaries. However, rising their salaries can inspire them to work higher with college students, enhance their instructing strategies and enhance their communication abilities. Though the federal government raised lecturers’ salaries, it didn’t cease their unethical conduct. This reveals that except human assets and ethical points are modified, the present outdated method won’t change. Irrespective of how a lot we discuss Cambridge training and technological progress immediately, it will likely be ineffective if we don’t change the perspective of lecturers.

It may be stated that the way forward for Mongolia is within the fingers of lecturers. Nonetheless, there isn’t a want to speak about a greater future if lecturers don’t change their socialist methods and notice that they’re inflicting bodily and psychological violence to college students. In reality, the college surroundings ought to be child-friendly, protected and non-violent. The college surroundings ought to encourage total improvement of scholars, respect range, and encourage individualization and socialization of the lessons. Unethical behaviors of lecturers are rising “most cancers” in society.
