Isaga esidala sithi uma unika umuntu inhlanzi, angadla usuku olulodwa. Uma ufundisa umuntu ukudoba, uzodla impilo yakhe yonke. Isenzo esilula sokulungiselela abantu ngamakhono okuzihlinzekela ngokwabo kuvula ikusasa lamathuba nethemba.
Ifilosofi efanayo iqhuba othisha nabaphathi e-Urban Promise Academy (UPA), isikole esiphakathi esikhonza abafundi ababalelwa ku-300 endaweni yaseFruitvale e-Oakland, eCalifornia.

Ithemba ukuthi hhayi kuphela ukuthi laba bafundi bazokwenza izinqumo ezinempilo zanamuhla, kepha nokuthi bazolungela ukwenza izinqumo ezingcono emiphakathini yabo kanye nasemindenini yabo esikhathini esizayo.
Abashintshi bezeMpilo: Allison Schaffer
Uthisha we-Urban Promise Academy u-Allison Schaffer uxoxa ngomsebenzi nokuzinikela kwakhe ekufundiseni abafundi ukuthi ukudla okunempilo, okunomsoco kubukeka kanjani ngempela.
Ukufeza lo mgomo, i-UPA yaqala ukubambisana neLa Clinica, iqembu lezempilo lomphakathi wendawo. Umtholampilo unikeza uthisha wezempilo amakilasi ebanga lesithupha, lesikhombisa, nelesishiyagalombili lesikole. Uthisha wezempilo, u-Allison Schaffer - {textend} noma uNks. Allie njengoba abafundi bakhe bembiza kanjalo - {textend} uthemba ukufundisa abafundi bakhe ngokwenza ukukhetha ukudla okungcono nokwenza ngcono impilo yabo. Ngenkathi enza lokho, unethemba lokuthi uzobasiza baqonde ukuthi umphakathi wabo uyithinta kanjani impilo yabo. Kepha okokuqala, kufanele enze abafundi bakhe baqonde ukuthi badlani njengamanje - {textend} nokuthi kungaba yini imiphumela.
Uzoqala ngaphi
“Ngicabanga ukuthi umsebenzi wami omningi wukubenza bacabange ukuthi badlani, bese okuza ngemuva kwalokho kwakheke umbono ngakho. Ngemuva kwalokho, yikho abangakwenza ngakho, ”kusho uSchaffer. “Kuqala ngokubenza bacabangisise ngezinto abazifaka emzimbeni wabo ngoba lokho akwenzeki njengamanje. Bahlale bengadli amachips noswidi noma bekhetha ukungadli isidlo sasemini esikoleni, okunomsoco kakhulu kunalokho abebengakudla uma bengathenga okwabo ukudla. ”
Ngakho-ke uqala kuphi lapho uzama ukuchaza ukukhetha kokudla ezinganeni ezikhetha ama-chip kuya izaqathe kanye ne-soda emanzini? Uqala ngokudla abakuqondayo: ukudla okungenamsoco.
USchaffer uletha izinhlobo ezine zamashipsi ezenziwe ngommbila. Ucela abafundi ukuthi bababeke ezingeni eliphilile kunalelo elincane. Uthi, “Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi bahlale befika esiphethweni esifanele.” Lokho kutshela uSchaffer into ebalulekile: lezi zingane zinolwazi, azikwenzi nje lokho.
Ama-chip nokudla okungenamsoco akuyona ukuphela kolimi lokudla ezikhulunywa yilezi zingane. Izitayi ze-iced ezinoshukela zithandwa kakhulu ngomzimba wabafundi balesi sikole, kanye nesoda. Ngenkathi amagremu kashukela namaphesenti ansuku zonke kungenzeka ukuthi awafuni ukuthi intsha iqonde, ama-scoops kanye nezindunduma zikashukela akuzona. Ngakho-ke yilokho okwenziwa uSchaffer nabafundi bakhe.
Esebenzisa ezinye iziphuzo eziyintandokazi zabafundi, uSchaffer ubanikeze isilinganiso sikashukela weziphuzo ezidumile. “Isoda inambitheka kamnandi, kodwa inoshukela omningi nezinto ezingalimaza umzimba wakho yize ungeke ukubone,” kusho uNaomi, oneminyaka engu-12 ofunda ibanga lesikhombisa e-UPA.
Izinqwaba zoshukela yimiyalezo ekhonkolo abafundi abangayimunca, bese beyabelana nabangani babo kanye nemindeni yabo. Ngeshwa, leyo milayezo ivame ukucwila. Ukumaketha ngokudla okunoshukela omningi nosawoti omningi kuhlasela abafundi uma bengekho emakilasini abo. Izikhangiso eziwubukhazikhazi namabhodi ezikhangiso kudonsa ukunaka kwabo, kuyilapho imifino, izithelo namanzi kunganikeli ukukhanya okufanayo.
Ukuletha umyalezo ekhaya
Ekilasini, kulula ukukhetha inketho engcono. Isithiyo sangempela sisiza labo bafundi abafanayo ukuthi benze izinqumo ezingcono lapho bethulwa ngokuzikhethela. Lokho, njengoba kusho uSchaffer, akwenziwa ngokunyakaza okukhulu. Kwenziwe kancane kancane, igxathu negxathu.
USchaffer ukhuthaza abafundi ukuthi bahlaziye indlela abaziphatha ngayo futhi babheke izindlela zokushintsha kancane kancane. Uma bephuza isoda nsuku zonke, uSchaffer uthi, ngeke bayeke ukuphuza isoda kusasa. Kepha mhlawumbe bazogcina isoda ngempelasonto noma baphuze isigamu se-soda bese bonga okusele ngosuku olulandelayo. Ngemuva kokuthi lowo mgomo usunqotshiwe, lapho-ke ungaya phambili ngokususa isoda ngokuphelele.
Ifilosofi kaSchaffer akuyona eyokuhlazisa noma yokwethusa abafundi ezinguquko. Esikhundleni salokho, ufuna baqonde imiphumela kanye namaqiniso wokukhetha okuthile, noma ngabe ukuphuza isoda nokudla amachips, noma ukungazivocavoci nokubuka i-TV.
"Ngibona ukukhuluphala okuningi emphakathini, kubazali, nakubafundi uqobo," kusho uSchaffer. "Ngokukhuluphala kuza inqwaba yezinkinga, njengesifo senhliziyo, isifo sikashukela, futhi lokho kubonakala kubazali, kodwa futhi kuyaqala ukwenzeka nakubafundi." USchaffer uthi amazinga esifo sikashukela sohlobo lwesibili asanda kuqala ayenyuka kubafundi ababona nsuku zonke.
Lezo zifo zinengqondo kubafundi abanjengoNaomi ngoba bazibona kubazali babo, obabekazi, omalume, omakhelwane nakubazala babo. Yini enye enengqondo kubafundi? Ukungazizwa kahle, ukungabi namandla okugijima nokudlala, nokulala ekilasini.
"Ukudla abafundi bami abakudlayo kunomthelela omkhulu ekufundeni kwabo," kusho uSchaffer. “Kaningi, izingane azidli ibhulakufesi. Siyahlinzeka ngesidlo sasekuseni esikoleni, kepha izingane eziningi zikhetha ukuphuma ngeshwa. Ngakho-ke lapho ingane ingadli ukudla kwasekuseni okuhle, iyozela, futhi kubathatha isikhashana ukulungiselela ukufunda. Uma umfundi engadli isidlo sasemini, emini bayaphazamiseka futhi bakhathele kakhulu futhi abakwazi ukugxila. ”
Ku-Elvis oneminyaka engu-14 ubudala, ofunda ibanga lesishiyagalombili e-UPA, ukubona ukuthi ijusi imvamisa kwakungeyona impilo eningi kune-soda kwakuvula iso. “Ngafunda ukuthi ujusi unesilinganiso esilinganayo sikashukela, noma ngabe ufafazwe ngamavithamini,” usho kanje. "Iziphuzo zamandla zinesilinganiso esifanayo, futhi zenza inhliziyo yakho ishaye ngamandla, futhi lokho akukubi kuwe ngoba lapho uma wonke amandla esehlile, uvele uwe."
Ukuntuleka kwamandla ulimi olumatasa lwabafundi abaphakathi luyaqonda, futhi njengoba othisha abanjengoSchaffer bazi, ukungabi bikho kwekhwalithi ephezulu, ukudla okunomsoco kufana nabafundi abalele, abanenkani, abathukuthele nabangadelela. Lezo zinkinga zingaholela ezinkingeni zokuziphatha, futhi konke kungenxa yokuthi umfundi akadlanga kahle - {textend} noma akakwazanga.
Ukuguqula umsebenzi wesikole ube ngumsebenzi wempilo
Akukhona ukufinyelela kokudla okunzima kakhulu, kusho uSchaffer. Amaphesenti angama-90 omzimba wabafundi be-UPA, nawo acishe abe ngamaphesenti angama-90 eLatino, afanelekela ukuthola ukudla kwasemini kwamahhala noma okuncishisiwe ngohlelo lwesidlo sasemini esikoleni sikahulumeni. Igumbi lokudla kwasemini lihlinzeka ngesidlo sasekuseni nesasemini usuku ngalunye lweviki lesikole. Ama-bodegas angomakhelwane andise umdlalo wawo ngokunikela nge-bar smoothie nge-sandwich neziphuzo ezintsha. Imakethe yabalimi ingaphezudlwana nje kwekhilomitha kude, futhi izitolo eziningi ezingomakhelwane ziphethe umkhiqizo omusha nenyama.
Ukukhombisa isigaba sakhe sebanga lesikhombisa ukuthi ushintsho lulula kangakanani, uSchaffer ubayisa ohambweni lokuhamba ngezinyawo lwendawo yabo. ICommunity Mapping Project ivumela abafundi ukuthi baqophe yonke into ezungeze isikole sabo - {textend} izindawo zokudlela, izitolo, imitholampilo, amakhaya, ngisho nabantu. Ngemuva kokuhamba isonto lonke, ikilasi liyabuya futhi lihlaziye abakutholile. Bakhuluma ngokuthi izitolo ezithile noma amabhizinisi athile angawuthinta kanjani umphakathi ngokuhle noma ngokubi. Bakhuluma ngokungenzeka uma kwenziwa izinguquko ezithile, futhi bavunyelwe ukuphupha ngokuthi yini engenziwa ukusiza umphakathi wabo, umsebenzi abaningi babo okungenzeka ukuthi bebengakaze bawubheke ngaphambi kwalesi sifundo sekilasi.
"Ekugcineni, ngethemba lokuthi, sebeqala ukucabanga ngomphakathi wabo nokuthi yiziphi izindlela abangathola ngazo lokho osekuvele kukhona okunempilo ngoba kuningi lapha osekuvele kunempilo," kusho uSchaffer. Uthemba nokuthi amakilasi akhe azifundisa ukubagxeka kakhulu umphakathi wazo futhi azikhuthaze ukuthi zicabange ngokuzimisela ngokuthi zingasiza kanjani izindawo ezingakubo ukuthi zishintshe, zikhule, futhi zenze kangcono - {textend} zanamuhla nekusasa labo.
