dicapino Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Educational institutions have a responsibility to dissuade students from pursuing fields of study in which they are unlikely to succeed. Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the claim. In developing and supporting your position, be sure to address the most compelling reasons and/or examples that could be used to challenge your position. Most students make the mistake of choosing fields of study because their peers are doing it or due to pressure from their parents. Some then end up not performing well. Therefore, it is paramount that education institutions should dissuade students from pursuing fields of study in which they are unlikely to succeed. Firstly, it improves a student academic performance. Students do not perform well in fields that they have little interest. Therefore, educators are saddled with the responsibility of discerning the academic strong, and weak points of individual students, and urge them to take courses they show interest in, thus improving academic performance. For example, an engineering student who gets poor grades, but gets the attention of the class when giving insightful analysis on political, and public policy. Such a student should be in the arts or humanities. Also, teachers become more effective in the classroom. As they work more with students that show interest particular fields, they become motivated to teach. This creates an enabling classroom environment, and an effective teacher-student relationship. For example, a calculus class in which majority of the students have prerequisite knowledge of algebra will make a teacher effective. Proponents against this statement argue that teachers are not working hard on the student. In some exceptional cases, compelling students to study subject-areas that are mundane to them might be efficient, yet some of these students still return to fields they find interesting. Ngozi Adiche, a Nigerian novelist, initially was studying to become a doctor, even with her affinity towards the arts, but a few years later she goes to the United States to study literature. She is now a renowned writer. Finally, education institutions have an important role in producing great individuals for the future, and this is possible only by dissuading students from fields of study that will stymie them reaching their potential. please am i on the right track. and also the essays on test day, will they be selected from the AWA pools. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neateditor Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 For the first paragraph, there seem some untrue statements. "Most students make the mistake" is exaggerated because many enough students know what they are doing and what they want to do exactly. Even, parents' and peers' opinions are too valuable references to deny. to be continue...
