Students behaviour has become a
big issue in many nations. The reason of the circumstances is explained in a
lot of ways. Personally, I consider that there are only a few major causes of
this, and I also find the causes solvable if authorities take right actions.
Firstly, the democracy, in my
opinion, is the root of the problem as it allows everyone to freely behave. In
most western countries, schools have an policy of giving an equal right to both
students and teachers to communicate in a classroom. On one hand it is
perfectly fine because student skill of articulateness improves. But on the
other hand it is seriously wrong as teachers might lose their control in
classroom. My suggestion for this problem is to increase the privilege of
teachers in school.
Secondly, the overuse of internet
among students may be an another explanation
for their bad behaviour. Social networking sites such as Facebook, twitter have
enabled every body to openly express themselves. There are even some Facebook
pages created by students which are intended to insult a particular teacher or
school. This sort of things could have a huge impact on their attitude. By
having some limitation on the use of internet for students by parents, the
problem can be diminished.
In conclusion, freedom is
absolutely vital in our lives, however, when and to whom this freedom should be
given is more critical. Giving too much freedom to youngsters who are not aware
of its detriment is most likely to harm only themselves but also others.
In numerous nations educational institutions are facing serious difficulties with the conduct of their pupils. This essay will suggest that poor parenting is the root cause of this phenomenon and submit that a public awareness campaign is the most viable solution, followed by a reasoned conclusion.
The principal cause of poor discipline in school is poor discipline at home. Many mothers and fathers either do not have the time or the skills required to teach their youngsters the value of manners and respecting authority. This results in many young people not listening to their teachers, being rude and actively rebelling against rules and regulations. For example, a recent study by Cambridge University found that 1 in 3 teenagers would refuse to comply with a rule if they didn't agree with it, compared to just 1 in 8 in a similar study in 1990.
The most practical solution to this problem is a government sponsored awareness campaign. An effective advertising campaign could warn of the danger of misbehaviour and hopefully raise awareness amongst the public. For example, the United Kingdom recently lobbied their citizens to teach their children about the importance of respecting teacher and this resulted in a dramatic improvement.
In summary, widespread negative behaviour in the classroom has been caused by caregivers not instilling the values of deference and civility in their offspring; however this can be tackled through a public education programme that promotes these values. It is also recommended that people should attend parenting classes before their child starts kindergarten.
