It is often said that students should keep studying and attending school without regular breaks for efficient education. However, I firmly believe that it is necessary for students to have regular rest for one year for two reasons: during vacation days, students can learn really a valuable wisdom of life out of school and taking abundant amount of breaks is more efficient for student's education.
To begin with, students are requied to have a opportunity to learn not only information from their teachers at school but also various knowledge and wisdom from the world. In other words, they should precious values such as enjoy of valunteering and perspective toward the world out of school to be excellent adults. In my case, when I was first year of high school, I traveled around Italy for a month by myself. At there, I visited Vatican city and I could watch georgeous Vatican church. also, I met various people from many different kinds of countries. I was very impressed by very nice pictures and artistic works which I just learned from my text book when I went inside the church. Besides, while spending a time with many people who have diffrent nationalities, I could make my view broaden and develop my social skill. So this trip gave me a lot of memories and instructions.
In addition to that, providing regular breaks improve students' educational effects. This is due to the fact that every mundane task or studying wear people out of originalty and concentration. Thus, if students have time enough to take a rest, it will play a role as recharging students with fresh energy and improve their focus on studying. According to the Ministry of Education of Korea in 2009, students who spent much time with family and participated in various extracurricular activities perfomed well in school with high GPA of 3.8 average. On the other hand, a students who spent most of their time sitting at the dest and studying do worse by scoring 3.4 on average. These students dozed off and concentrated worse in class. This implies that more work or studying always does not mean better results.
All in all, it is much better way to provide students with abundant amount of time to rest because students could have beneficial experience from the wolrd through various activities and they are better good at focusing on their work. |
