Some people believe that university students are required to attend the classes. Others hold the view that going to classes should be optional for students.

In some countries
such
as Russia and China,
attendance
in
classes
is compulsory at universities, whereas it is voluntary in many universities in Australia and New Zealand. I firmly believe that attending
classes
is important for
students
and should be a compulsory requirement.
However
, opinions could vary from case to case. There is no doubt that
the

and the

of
knowledge
of a specific subject highly correlate to each other because during the lecture
students
can hear and see the lecturers who explain the

as well as answer questions regarding

.

Additionally
, during the lecture or tutorial
teachers
can explain the material in an easier or simpler way than it could be read from the book.
As a result
of

,
students
will not only have greater

.
On the other hand
, in some situations attending
classes
should not be mandatory.
For example
,
students
may be absent because of sickness, jobs, family needs or the necessity to take care of children or the urgent need to be in a different place during

However

students
to attend

which will eventually help them to increase their
