Some argue that it is better for high
school students to study fixed curriculum because it will teach them necessary education,
therefore better prepared for college. However, I am of a believer the opposite
is true. Having to choose courses offer students to figure out what their real interests
are. Moreover, it is much more effective in terms of learning, because they
feel more responsibility.
First of all, giving freedom for high
school students to choose some of their classes will provide them opportunity
to find out what they are really interested in. To elaborate, since students
are not fully aware of their true academic pursuits, having choices what to
study will provide them to get a taste of many fields so that they can find the
particular study that they want to go deeper. A research done by Department of
Education of Korea, students who went to school where students had some freedom
of choosing course had 40% better academic achievement compared to students who
went to the school where had fixed curriculum all along. The department concluded
that the reason for this better academic achievement was students who had
choices what to learn during high school realized their career goal earlier than
those who had not. Looking at this research result, it is obvious that it is
better for high school students to have some extent of freedom to choose their
classes.
Moreover, it is much effective way of
learning because students would feel responsible to their choices. Since they
chose their courses by themselves, they will have much more responsibility to
be good at it than studying what they are given. Therefore, they will put more
effort on the class. For example, I exerted bigger effort to the classes that I
chose than the one that was fixed during my high school years because I wanted
to be responsible to my choice.
In conclusion, it is clear that
advantages of choosing some classes for high school student outweigh the
disadvantages.
