India: Schools Revise Timings Due to Extreme Heat. Is it a Solution?
印度:由于极端高温,学校调整上课时间。这能解决问题吗?
Indian Meteorological Department, India’s weather bureau, had issued a heatwave warning. This is the second heatwave in three weeks. It is common knowledge that extreme heat disrupts education. Since April, Indian schools have revised timings and issued closures due to heat. India is not alone here. With climate change, uninterrupted school year is becoming uncommon. 40 million students were shut out of classrooms in recent weeks across Asia and Africa. After all, heat lowers a child's ability to focus, retain and process information. Extreme heat also causes health problems among students. It is clear that schools are unprepared to deal with extreme heat. Should school revise their timings? Palki Sharma tells you.
印度气象局发布了热浪警报。这是三周内的第二次热浪。众所周知,极端高温会影响学校上课。
自4月份以来,印度学校已经调整了上课时间,并宣布因高温停课。
在这方面,印度并不孤单。随着气候变化,不间断的学年越来越不常见。
最近几周,亚洲和非洲有4000万学生被迫无法在教室上课。
毕竟,高温会降低孩子集中注意力、记忆和处理信息的能力。
极端高温也会给学生带来健康问题。
很明显,学校没有做好应对极端高温的准备。学校是否应该调整上课时间?
以下是印度网友的评论:

Here in India .. schools already start so early...Children hardly get any breakfast time with their parents..their siblings...
While revising time if some people can put up the importance of this Family time in a child's life. So many times just in rush they are going to schools without eating anything... Result they pass out in the assembly times itself.
Schools time can be shifted to evenings maybe and with less hours.
印度学校这么早开始上课,孩子们几乎没有时间和父母、兄弟姐妹一起吃早餐。
在修改时间的时候,如果有人注意到家庭时间在孩子生活中的重要性就好了。
很多时候,他们匆匆忙忙,什么也没吃就去学校了……
结果他们在课间操的时候昏倒了。
学校的上课时间也许可以调到晚上,时间短一些。

The entire south, east and west India had been under a heatwave just few weeks back. Temperatures in Kolkata, Hyderabad, Bangalore , Mumbai etc were extremely high, even in the middle of the night. Yet the media only started crying now, as now it’s north India’s turn to face the heat.
就在几周前,整个印度的南部、东部和西部都处于热浪之中。
加尔各答、海德拉巴、班加罗尔、孟买等地的气温极高,甚至在半夜也是如此。
然而媒体现在才开始呼喊,现在轮到印度北部面对高温了。

And I’m slee with a blanket in Meghalaya. Yesternight it rained and it is windy here and cloudy currently. Our state is blessed with vegetation and forests. Though many criticised our state for less development but we are satisfied with little development and infrastructure as well.
我梅加拉亚邦,晚上睡觉盖毯子。昨晚下了雨,现在这里有风,多云。我们邦有植被和森林。尽管许多人批评我们邦发展不足,基础设施落后,但我们很满足。

Why dont they build schools that are closed off from the outside and have central AC/Heating like U.S. Schools?
为什么他们不像美国的学校那样建封闭的校区,装中央空调/暖气?

While timing can be a short term and transitional thing, I think, ultimately we need to address the main issue and not merely deal with covering symptoms. I don’t know how viable this idea is but can me make schools cooler? Like ensure trees in the vicinity etc. Also, students usually faint in open ground and assemblies, so can we rethink upon school infrastructure so that it is much cooler, covered and ventilated. So can we think of something to address that. Like apart from timing, we can think about all this as well. It’s disheartening we’re already seeing how we are leaving nothing good for next generation
虽然修改上课时间是一个短期、过渡的解决方案,但我认为,最终我们需要解决主要问题,而不仅仅是治标。
我不知道这个想法是否可行,比如在校内多种树,绿植等。
此外,学生通常在露天场地和集会中晕倒,所以我们可以重新考虑学校的基础设施,使其更凉爽,有遮盖并通风。
除了修改上课时间,我们还可以考虑其他解决办法。令人沮丧的是,我们没有给下一代留下什么好东西。

Schools must be closed for three months may ,June and July and in good weather months less holidays so that no bad effect on studies .
学校必须在5月、6月和7月放假,在天气好的时候少放几个月的假期,这样对学习的影响就不那么大。

Nature is rebuilding itself and teaching lessons due to our greedy mess and ego to conquer Her. We must ask what we do good or bad would comeback as every action there would be equal and opposite reaction..
由于我们的贪婪和征服,大自然正在重建自己,并给我们上了一课。我们做的好事或坏事都会有回报或报应,因为每一个作用力都会产生相等的反作用力。

In my whole school and academic life in 1990s and early 2000s we had maybe 4 heavy rain holidays (different years) and no one complained of too much heat during summers. Last year my kids stay a week home just because of heavy rains and summer this year, unbelievable, God save us.
20世纪90年代至21世纪初,在我的整个学校生涯中,可能经历了4个大雨假期(不同年份),没有人抱怨夏天太热。
去年我的孩子们在家里呆了一个星期,是因为大雨,今年是因为夏天太热,难以置信,愿神保佑我们。

Not just the school timing but also the academic year timing should be changed. For India it can be like from 1st June to 31st March. April and May should be vacation.School hours should be from 9 am to 4 pm so that the commute is not putting kids under the hot Sun.
不仅要改变学校上课时间,而且要修改学年时间。对印度来说,比如从6月1日到3月31日。四月和五月应该设为假期。上课时间应该从早上9点到下午4点,这样上下学的路上就不会让孩子们暴露在烈日下。
