As time goes by, education has experienced from diverse aspects of modification as following proceeding of globalization. Giving freedom to the students to choose what they want to study is one of the examples of change. Differ from traditional instructing method, people expect it to engender positive effect on educational places. However, I firmly believe its advantages are not capable of veiling disadvantages: students may have inclined perspective on specific subjects and also make wrong decision in their studying.
It is natural that having a lot of knowledge is beneficial in many facets of life. Because all of the subjects may have common in even small portion, having interests in various subjects can make learner to be instructed in more proficient and interesting way. To illustrate, some students read books of Martin Luther to research about “Religion Revolution” in social study course. However, when they study further, the same contents can be also found in morality course. Therefore, students can easily put in use what they studied in society course. That is, as overlapped contents are existed in between subjects, student can exploit such advantages to boost their efficiency.
On top of that, lack of experience in education may become shortcoming to learners. Since all of them are not fully matured to proceed self-directed studying, an expert in education field is needed to. When schools let students study freely, it contributes lots of drawbacks. Students may not fully achieved ‘essential’ knowledge in many other subjects, which can be fully utilized in their social-life, to add, student can be biased to merely what they have concern, which means, balance among degrees of fulfillment in learning becomes bumpy state. Concentrating on just limited subjects may be temporarily effective in areas such as raising talented students, however, when the teaching comes to all students, it may considered that most of them should achieve essential teachings in certain degrees.
This world has now been becoming versatile. Accordingly, the person who the world wants may also be versatile in plenty of field in social life. The beginning of social life is education. Therefore, prudent choice in learning for students must be required. |
