“Isizathu Sokuba Ngikhethe Ukuxoxa Indaba Yami” njengoba Ilandiswe Ababali Bezindaba
October 13, 2021
Kuze kube manje, abantu abasha abangaphezu kwama-300 ngesibindi babelane ngolwazi lwabo lwe-STEM ne-UnCommission, bekhombisa impumelelo nezinselelo zokufunda kwe-preK-12. Siyaqhubeka nokukhuthazeka, sithobeke, futhi sikhuthazwe yikho konke esikuzwayo.
Sibuze abanye bababalisi bethu kungani bakhethe ukubamba iqhaza kwi-UnCommission futhi babelane ngeqiniso labo, futhi sijabule ukuhlanganyela lokho abasitshele khona. Umculi wethu Dlala uSteinberg udale nezithombe zezizathu zabo zokwabelana ngendaba yabo, njengoba ilandiswa ababalisi bethu.
Nakhu esikuzwile kulaba babalisi:
- Bakholelwa emandleni okuxoxwa kwezindaba okusakazekile, okunamandla okuphazamisa izindlela zendabuko zokucabanga nokuphakamisa imiphakathi evame ukubekelwa eceleni.
- Bayazi ukuthi kunokuhlukahluka okuningi ekutheni i-STEM ihlangenwe nakho kanjani, futhi kubalulekile ukucabanga ngalokho esingakufunda kulezi zindlela ezahlukene. Izikhathi eziningi, lezi zindaba zingaveza ngisho nento ebingalindelekile nhlobo.
- Ababalisi bezindaba babelane ukuthi lolo hlangothi luvimbele amazwi emiphakathi yonke yombala, futhi i-UnCommission yakha inkundla yokuthi le ntsha izwakale ngokujulile.
- Banethemba lokuthi izindaba zabo zizogqugquzela abanye ukuthi babelane ngamaqiniso abo futhi baphakamise amazwi abo kulo mzamo kazwelonke.
Siyajabula kakhulu ngabo bonke ababalisi bezindaba zethu be-UnCommission ngokwakha lo mphakathi futhi ngokuhlanganyela basebenzise amazwi abo ukuthuthukisa ukufunda kwe-STEM yabo bonke abantu abasha e-United States.
Le mifanekiso ifaka izingcaphuno ezivela kubalobi abane bezindaba: uKendra Hale, uKaitlyn Varela, uDorianis Perez, nombalisi wezindaba ongaziwa. Izithombe zifaka ababalisi bethu ngaphambili nezizathu zabo zokwabelana ngendaba yabo ne-UnCommission ebhalwe ngabo. Abathengisi bethu bama eceleni kwabanye ochwepheshe be-STEM, kubandakanya uGeorge Washington Carver, uValerie Thomas, u-Ellen Ochoa, uPercy Julian, uRuby Hiros, uFranklin Chang-Diaz, noKarlie Noon.
Sibonga ababalisi bethu ababelane nathi ngemicabango yabo, izingcaphuno zabo eziphelele nezindaba ongazifunda ngezansi:
"Ngangazi ukuthi ngifuna ukuzibandakanya ne-The UnCommission project ngoba kuvula inkundla yokuxoxwa kwezindaba okwandile ngenhloso yokuthuthukisa ukulingana ngokobuhlanga emfundweni ye-STEM. Amandla alokhu kuxoxwa kwendaba ukuthi enza kusebenze ukufunda futhi kuhlose ukukhulisa ukwazi kokuhlangenwe nakho okuphilayo kwalabo abazi ngokuseduze ukubonakaliswa okungapheli kwengcindezelo. Ngikholelwa ekusebenziseni imisipha yesenzo esihlangene kanye nokufinyelela komthelela ohlangene ukuphazamisa izindlela zodlame olucindezelayo." - UKendra Hale
"Bengifuna ukubamba iqhaza kwi-UnCommission ngoba ngicabanga ukuthi kubaluleke kakhulu ukugqamisa ulwazi oluyingqayizivele lomuntu ngamunye ngemfundo ye-STEM kulelizwe futhi lokhu kuyiqiniso ikakhulukazi ngabafundi abambalwa abamelene ngoba akuvamile ukuthi sinikezwe ipulatifomu ezwakala. Ngithathe isinqumo sokuhlanganyela indaba yami ukuze ngikwazise abanye ukuthi sonke sike saba nokuhlangenwe nakho okuhlukile futhi yikho kanye lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho okusibumba futhi kusiholele ekubeni yilokho esiyikho namuhla. Kepha, noma kunjalo, kufanele ngaso sonke isikhathi sifunde kulokhu futhi sikhule simelane namathuba okulwa nathi futhi sikuphonsele inselelo lokho abanye abangase bakucabange ngephutha ngekusasa lethu." - UDorianis Perez (funda Kusetshenziswa i-STEM ukunqoba)
"Nginqume ukuxoxa indaba yami ngoba bengifuna ukuthi abanye bathokozelwe yisayensi ngendlela enginayo - futhi lokho akusho ukuthi angizange ngilwe kanzima ekuqaleni - kepha othisha bami babebakhulu futhi bangiqhubele phambili emkhakheni wesayensi, Ngakwazisa. Ngifuna ukusiza abanye babelane ngendaba yabo futhi ngibenze babe nezwi emfundweni ye-STEM ngoba kimi, ulwazi lomuntu wonke lubalulekile." - UKaitlyn Varela (funda Indaba Kaitlyn)
"Endabeni yami, okuhlangenwe nakho okungalindelekile ku-STEM kunamandla okuhlakulela amaphupho amakhulu futhi kuholele ekutholeni okusha okumangazayo. Ukukhuthazwa okulingana nokusebenzayo kwe-STEM kuleli kungavula izinkulungwane zamathuba amasha, futhi ngifuna ukuba yingxenye yawo." - Umxoxi Wezindaba Ongaziwa (funda Izibalo: Indaba Yothando, Inzondo ... Nothando Futhi)
