HOW TO GUARANTEE QUALITY IN EDUCATION
Journal Title: Problems of Education in the 21st Century - Year 2008, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
Quality has become a key word. Self-assessments and peer reviews, quality management and student polls have become ubiquitous. With all these bustling activities the main element in education, the personal quality of the teacher somehow got lost. If we want to discuss real quality in education, we must first ask what the teacher’s position is. This paper is going to discuss what conditions the teacher must fulfill in order to be a good teacher: what are his demands on himself, what he must he demand from the students? The society also part of this: What must a teacher expect from society in order to be a good teacher? The answers are, briefly: the teacher must be very exacting towards him/herself; he must constantly improve his personal and scientific qualifications. The teacher must not be soft towards his/her students. Society must provide him freedom, independence and respect. Yet these are only the prerequisites of quality in education.
