Education podcast, presented by One-Room Education. &nbsp;Today&#8217;s episode is part 2 of the Teacher&#8217;s Unions&#8230;Good or Bad for Your Children?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">Join me as I discuss the effects of the public teacher&#8217;s unions on the American classroom and beyond in this 2 part series. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">In part-2 I talk about the corrupt political powerhouse that the teacher&#8217;s unions have grown into over the last 100+ years and the issues they cause inside and out of American classrooms.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\"><strong>In the first part of today&#8217;s episode<\/strong>, I delve into the problems that have arisen out of the federalization of education in America and the effect it has had on the individual classroom teachers and, by extension, their students. Once the Department of Education was established as an Executive Cabinet Department in 1980s, it was able to then direct the states through incentive programs and other public pressure tactics as to the direction they wanted education to go on a national level. &nbsp;The problem with this is that the education system, at least in the United States, was established to be a local and regional system to ensure education was adapted for the different economic needs throughout the country, not just the urban manufacturing centers that emerged out of the Industrial Revolution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\"><strong>I present the correlation between the establishment of the federal Department of Education and the expansion of influence and power of the public teacher&#8217;s unions<\/strong>. <\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">After the American Civil War, the federal government wanted to ensure that they were able to keep track of what was going on in the South and help to ensure that future generations of southern people would hold the same values as the &#8220;free&#8221; North.  This, according to the though process of the federal government at the time, would be facilitated through positive alliances between the state and federal education departments.  This lead to the establishment of the Federal Department of Education in 1867, originally called the Office of Education under the control of the Department of the Interior of the Executive Branch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">The Office of Education was given the task of distributing funds allotted to them by the Second Morrill Act of 1890.  This started the march towards the nationalization of the American education system as we know it today.  This was used as the basis for the Constitutional acrobatics that is the modern federal Department of Education and the problems it has caused for teachers, students and American society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">While the Department of Education was founded with, what I believe to be noble intentions, it is simply unconstitutional in its current state.  It has ultimately created incentives for corruptions and incestuous relationships between the political arm of the public teacher&#8217;s unions and the career political class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">Education is supposed to be a team effort between parents, students, and teachers.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">Teacher&#8217;s unions, in cooperation with politicians, are working to enable and embolden  teachers who want to use the classrooms to forge a new generation of political activists who align with their own beliefs and values, instead of teaching the students how to be independent thinkers and individuals who can discern what their own opinions on worldly matters are instead of relying on someone else to tell them what to think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#9f9f5f;color:#9f9f5f\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote has-white-color has-text-color\"><blockquote><p>Politics has no place in a school outside of a civics classroom.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#9f9f5f;color:#9f9f5f\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\">Teacher&#8217;s should be apolitical and should not push their ideologies on their students.  Politics has no place in a school outside of a civics classroom.  And even in that context, you, as the teacher, are there to facilitate an academic conversation and debate, and to foster curiosity in your students, again, not to tell them what they should or should not believe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">I give personal examples of how this problem has been effecting my private tutoring students and practical steps you can take to help fix the problems created by the political arm of the public teacher&#8217;s unions.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#9f9f5f;color:#9f9f5f\"\/>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-white-color has-text-color is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>It&#8217;s not going to be easy, but if we work together, we can solve these problems.
