▶ Your Answer : It is hard to say weather it is better to take a course in economics for basic subject.
Some people would say school must be the right place for teaching economics but, I am not one who agree with this concern. Maybe, school is the best place to learn efficiently and effectively, however, I do not think it is only option. One can learn from their parents or newspaper by own. To think about how much nowadays-students are burden for many other subjects, it is very ardent for them to handle in high school.
To begin with, students are already sick of their current condition. More subject they get, More negative effect will arise. Concisely, to make one concentrate on what they are learning, it is better way to seek one to focus on dependable amount of subjects. Efficiency is more important than how much they learn.
Next, one can acquire about a concept of economy, from many other pathes, such as parents or news papers, magazines and certain books which are related with economics. Someday, one would come to consider about economics seriously, and it will be led to study ecnomics spontaneously and eagerly.
No matter they have no base theories, because economy is directly related to one's own life so it will be learned anyhow by one's own.
All in all, altough it is hard to say which opinion is better, I strongly believe that one should not invest their time on learning economics in high school period. I would rather suggest one to exert their enthusiasm to favorite subjects. To think in a long term, it is more advisable. |
