Rescuing Children from the Carpet Baggers

· In Uttar Pradesh: The centre for rural education and development action (CREDA) supported by the united nations development programme and the national child labour projekt are running special schools.

· CREDA helps to access funds from the goverment, so they can found a school.

· These special schools:

Give education

Give some money to the parents (Rs 100 pr. month)

The teachers aren`t lazy

No discrimination of poor people or girls

Activities such as sport and group activities

Free meals

· In UNDP- supported schools: 44 % girls (out of 5000 students)

· It was not easy to get the children away from the carpet industry of Mirzapur- Bhadoi, because:

Parents count on the income of money

The other schools had let them down

The industry was hostile because they didn`t have to pay much to the children.

Why india's poor pay for private schools

The public school system in India, is not a good system

• One teacher have to teach 55 students in a variation of 1-5 grade.
• The teacher have long commutes every day
• Learn English in 6. grade
• Teacher in English can’t speak English
• No pres from the parentes

Privat school

• Teacher with a college degre
• Learn English in kinder garden-
• Better reader than Government schools.
• Teachers can be pressed by parents

Parentes

• Want; English, science and math in the schools
• Their children to learn more.

A prime minister in India wanted to create a elite, that could teach the rest. They wanted their own doctors, lawyers, engineers, and other profs.

Nearly 2 % of India’s incomes were spent on elementary education

One said "There is no work without english"

Even goverment school teachers belive that private school children are smarter

Caste Struggle

- many various religions (Hindu 83%, Muslim 11%, christianity and sikhs 2%)

- Hinduism: They believe that you build up karma from your previous life -and take it into the next life. They believe that you are born to be in a certain rank, which include that you can't marry someone, who isn't in your rank.

- Cast system started around 1500 BC

-"cast" means race, breed og lineage

-there are 3000 casts (high) and 25000 subcastets (low)

Brahmin - Priests and teachers

Kshatriyas - Warriors and Rulers

Vaishyas - traders and cultivator

Shudras - Labourers and Servants

The dalits are unrecorded

They got the bad jobs

They are victims of violence, rape and harassment

India has a dalit president, so they got better conditions.

inddeling i 4 grupper - 2 x 4 og 2 x 5 personer:
4 mands grupperne arbejder med enten: "Religion and Caste" eller " Education and Children"
5-mandsgruperne arbejder med "Women" eller " India's tranformation and globalisation"
Gruppens tekster udleveres til gruppen i papir men alle gruppers tekster er uploadet i India mappen.
Der gives 2 x engelsk modul til gruppearbejde og forberedelse af gruppefremlæggelser.
Første emne der præsenteres er: "Religion" og andet " Education and Children" - grupperne præsenterer deres tekster - gerne med visning af relevante indlæg / gadgets uploadet på bloggen her - og hele holdet har læst en relevant tekst til dagen : skrives i Lectio som almindelig lektie.
Herefter ses uddrag af "Slumdog Millionaire" og der arbejdes med uddrag af teksten dertil.
Det næste emne der præsenteres er " Women" og derefter " India's transformation and Globalisation" som ovenfor beskevet og der læses relevante tekster af hele holdet.

India at a Glance - facts about India

After lessons about these texts groups will send their notes about the most important things to know about the climate + the geography of the country upload 1. a map of India - on which we can see the different states.
Other students will work with the timeline of the settlements in India and the most important events leading up to today and write 2.the timeline - here perhaps after having collaborated in Google docs. We also want to have an old picture of 3. a Muslim "Moghul", 4. extra information and/or an old picture of "the East India Compagny",5. pictures of India during the British Empire/ India as "The Jewel in the Crown" ,6. a picture of Mahatma Gandhi, 7. short film or pictures of the diversity of India today.

All these things will help build up our blog about India and make us begin to wonder about this vast country and its history
