Some people think that parents should trach children how to be good members of society. Others, however, believe that school is the place to learn this. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Nowadays, a number of
students
will go to study in university before entering the workforce. However
, what is the main function of universities
? Do they need to educate students
with some knowledge or skills needed in the workplace or do they just teach them the knowledge that just benefits themselves whether it is useful for the future? From my own perspective, universities
do provide students
with basic information and abilities for the job, and there are some reasons below.
First of all, universities
can be seen as the foundation of work. For instance
, what students
earn in junior high school is the base of that in senior high. If they are not proficient in the courses taught in junior high, when they go into the next stage, it is hard for them to learn some more advanced subjects. Therefore
, it is like the same idea in universities
. If students
do not acquire some knowledge and techniques in universities
, they may not figure out or deal with some professional problems after working. Therefore
, I consider that it is the universities
’ responsibility to instruct students
in these abilities.
Moreover
, if schools just focus on their sake, I do not think that they are a school. In my opinion, schools are supposed to educate students
and make them improve rather than care about their own interests. It means that focusing on their benefits is not the schools’ responsibility. Thus
, I cannot agree that universities
do things like that.
To sum up
, it seems to me that education is the schools’ duty, and so are universities
. They are supposed to instil some expertise and savviness needed in the workplace into students
