Some people think schools should only teach students academic subjects. Others think schools should also teach students how to discriminate between right and wrong. Discuss both views and give your own opinions.
In contemporary society,the issue related to teaching methods at schools has attracted public attention.Some experts believe teaching academic
subjects
alone will empower students while
others oppose that it is impossible to achieve the best out of students without having knowledge
about the ethical aspects.I completely agree with the latter perspective and both views will be discussed in the following paragraph.
On one hand,learning academic subjects
is the key to achieving success in later life according to
some.In other words
, academic qualifications open up a lot of opportunities in the future and in this
capitalist streamed society academic knowledge
is of paramount importance in fulfilling goals,hence
, success.For example
, worldwide recognized companies, offer much attention to people with high-profile educational qualifications rather than recognizing their moral values.In short, brilliant performances in schools and universities are taken into account when it comes to employment,hence
, academic subjects
ought to be prioritized in teaching.
On the other hand
, opponents argue giving knowledge
alone will not accomplish the task of teaching and improving ethical demeanour should be included in the curriculum.Humans are social creatures and they are supposed live
and thrive as a group.Fix the infinitive
to live
Besides
, they must interact with each other and ought to learn to respect and tolerate others' principles.Thus
from childhood,these qualities should be watered and encouraged to have an ideal society.For instance
, there are ongoing crises and wars between prosperous and developed countries.Even though they are at the pinnacle of success still they experience insecurity ,because of the lack of ethical manners to identify right and wrong.Overall
, formal education alone should not be considered as teaching and students should be taught how to discriminate between right and wrong.
In conclusion,I believe apart from traditional school subjects
, the curriculum should aquatint ethics as it has clearly depicted the importance of having mindfulness about right and wrong.Though there is a dispute about the methods of teaching, according to
my knowledge
best method would be a combination of academics with thoughtfulness about justice.Submitted by g.s.subasinghe on
