Topic: We must make school uniform.




agree side:)
Carol Smith: School uniform is formal, and students can wear it on official occasions. Moreover it is symbol of each school, so we can know which school is by seeing it.




Hanna Marin: Students don't have to have a time to choose school uniform if we make it. In the morning, they are so busy, so that 's important.
Also they can unite by wearing it.




Kofy Keita: If we make school uniform, students don't have to choose clothes everyday. And they can cooperate each other by wearing it, that is important.




disagree side:)
Finnian Lee: If we make school uniform, girl have to wear only skirt. So girlls can't play a lot. It makes their movement limit, that is not good.




Lucus Arden: If we make school uniform, students must spend much money for it.




Questions and Answer:)
1. What do you think about money we must pay for school uniform?
---> We must have a little bit time to pay for it, one time after entering school, so not so expensive.
--->Unless we make it, we must need  a lot of clothes everyday , that is more expensive that school uniform.
--->We want to wash school uniform everyday, but if we make it, we can't do.




2. Without school uniform, we can get free time by choosing clothes last night.   ----> But not all students can do.

--->Uniform was made in simple way, so not trouble like you said.


4.Girls must wear only skirt.
---> Even if they don't like it, they will get used to wear it.

9.About personality
--->Student tend to judge from appearance, so they can see their character easily if  everyone wear same clothes , uniform.


10. Suddenly making uniform is difficult, so at first we should make school batch or rain coat. Two things are lower than uniform.


Conclusion:)
We make school batch, don't make uniform.


My comment:) When I had weared from elementary school to high school, for 12years. In fact uniform is useful and good for students I think. When I think what uniform's role is,  it is for learn to observe the rules. There are many rules in society, and we must observe that. And if  students wear uniform, they can get cooperative spirit a littile bit. That is important for students.

discussion 1.22

Topic: We must introduce rental system of textbooks instead of free of charge.

disagree side:)
Lucy: If we introduce it, they will have some problems. For examples they can't bring out textbook at home, and draw under line to inportant points. So they can't study enough because of it.

Emiliy: Maybe some students wanna write some important points on textbooks. So if we introuce it, they don't come to write that.

Izabella: If we introduce it, they can't take a note and bring out textbooks at home. And teachers often says 'Take a note". So we shouldn't introduce it.

agree side:)
Sofy: Totall costs of textbooks will be so big. Some students are not afford to buy textbooks.

Sara: Cost of that is so big. And each school can get more high quality textbooks. Moreover they can forget that at home.

Questions and Answers.

Q1.What do you think about cost of it?
--->they should pay that by themselves in the future.
--->If we introduce it, they can save money, and we can give them more confortable place to study, buy computer, so like this we can use the money in other ways.

Q2. Why do you think more students can go to school if we introduce it?
--->At first, she thought we have to buy textbooks by ourselves, so she cancels that.

Q3 Disagree side said they can't take a memo.
--->If we introduce it,  they can concentrate on study to take a memo, but we should take a more detail memo by themselves.

4.We should change and buy textbooks every time that change.

5.Why don't you want to use other people's (used) textbooks?

6.If we intoduce it, it's good for ECO. Also they can concentrate on study and listen to carefully.
--->Without textbooks, it's hard to concentrate on studying by themselves. And teachers have to copy textbooks every times, give them handout.

Conclusion
We try to introduce it at trial periods in elementary school.
If we can't do well or not, we change this system case by case to improve it.


My comment
Students tend to rely on textbooks when they study, so I think by limiting times when they can take textbooks, they can study effectively and concentrate on study. Also if we think that we will introduce it for ECO, we should introduce not rental system, but tablet. In fact,  Korea introduces it in elementary school, so we should do I think. Also I can think we should rental textbooks in one year.
By doing that, they can bring out that at home, and whenever they want to study they can study without a class.In case of they lose that, they have to compensate that.

discussion 1.15

Topic: Teachers shouldn't give any homework to students.


agree side:)
Anna Jones
If teachers don't give any homework to students, they can have free times, and can spend time effectively.


Rachel Williams:)
If teachers don't give any homework to students, they can have free time , and can play sports or play with their friends. That is important for them.


disagree side
Kate Hail:)
There are two reasons to disagree this topic. First is that teacher should give student homework to make them study at home. Second is that teachers should do to make their dream come true. So what teachers give homework them is important.


Alex Bell:)
Homework is important, because it helps student study at home, and to get ready final test.


Questions and Answers
1. If students have free time, can't they spend time effectively because there is cases which they play games at home?
--->To play games is not bad thing.
--->But is studying most impotant?
--->Student can get enough time to study in class.
--->If they can't understand in class, how can they understand?


2.At school, homework is same,but if so, students can't study effectively?
 Because their learning abilities are different.
--->It's important to review what they learned at home.
--->But they can't concentrate on what they can't understand?


3.What's grade of the students ?
--->It is high school. Becaus they should enter university.


4.Types of student who both sides speak are different.


5.Is to introduce question paper good? Because they can ask teachers what they don't understand, so can study effectively.


My comment
 First of all, what is purpose of homework? Of course, it is to have students review what they learned. But  the most important thing is to let them get into the habit of studying by themselves at home. Agree side often discussed free time, but they have a lot of free times without school. So if they have homework, we still have enough free times. Also teacher should give them homework which match their each learning abiities to study effectively.  When I was a junior high school student,  I was said to study by myself as homework by my teacher. So not all homework are same.
