▶ Your Answer :
Nowadays role of teachers has tremendous importance in our
lives. Opinions are divided over this statement that showing view political and
social issues in class is not good for teacher. I do not agree with this
statement for two reasons. First, teacher can help student to understand well
about social or political issues by showing their opinions with many media
sources’ view. Secondly, student can be
competitive
More than anything else, I think teacher only can help
student to understand social and political issues. Teachers’ main role is to convey knowledge to
students, so they are able to mention well-balanced view by integrating their
own thinking and other authors’ view about social and political. Therefore it
will be helpful for student to have opportunity to be well informed about
current society’s issues. Let me suggest example that can support my claim. I
had a chance to travel to Africa continent few years ago. I was highly shocked
that numerous people were suffering from starvation and AIDS. Even many
children were in malnourished and had little or no access to education. I could
not comprehend why these innocent people had to live in such detrimental
conditions. So I sought out various sources about it on the Internet to learn
more about as to the issues. There were conflicting views opinions in articles.
Some news blamed first world countries for not providing enough aid to
impoverish countries. Other pointed the finger at the civil wars among ethnic
group in African continent. Thus, I could not understand which view is
right. Some days after, history teacher
expressed his opinion regarding this issue, and suggested other experts ‘
perspectives in class. As a result, I was able to better understand the situation
in a balanced view. As my experience shows, teacher can help student to
comprehend current issue well.
In addition, students are able to enhance their debating
skills through discussion with teachers and classmates about main issues of
society. Nowadays most employers of
companies put importance on candidates’ real working ability such as
socializing and discussion skills when they choose their workers. Thus students
who have high level of debating can be competitive in job market.
I would explain how my
reason could be supported. When teachers express their opinion about social and
political events in the class, some student can have different view. In that situation, teacher can divide the
class into two groups, and two groups debate over the teacher’s view. For the
discussion, teacher would prepare well and help progression of it. Thus,
students are able to learn how to make points against others though debating
experience. As seen above, the discussion regarding social and political event
with teachers and friends who express their perspectives will give great
opportunity to improve their discussing skill to students,
As mentioned above regarding the topic, I think that it is
desirable to show their perspective about social or political issues in class
for the following reasons. Firstly, student can get balanced comprehension as
to social or political issue through that teachers show their opinion with many
authors’ views. Moreover, student can be grow up their debating ability through discussion
about social issue with teacher.
