Field-trips from school - Good or bad?

Some people believe that children should have important lessons other than classes in schools, that is, visiting local businesses or public buildings. To what extend do you agree or disagree?          W ith the endless advances in every field in the modern era, education too is getting reformed in its own way. Many schools today often try to provide more innovative learning experiences to children by numbers of different methodologies. Among them, taking students to visit local commercial establishments or public buildings is one of the latest trends. This practice, I think, would be a significant opportunity for them to acquire skills and information which are not usually available in a school environment. To begin with, classroom learning can sometimes be monotonous and limited, whereas access to ideas and knowledge in nonverbal and practical ways, by visiting outer places can make learning creative, fun-filled and more effective.  For instanc...

Technology in agriculture - Positive or Negative?

Some people support the development of factory farming and the scientific creation of fruits and vegetables in agriculture, but others oppose these developments. Discuss both the views and give your own opinion. The inclusion of scientific approaches and advanced technology in the field of agriculture has changed the face of agriculture. Bio-technological advancements, according to many, offer lot of benefits in many ways, but the same is considered as a negative development by many others. Both the arguments will be analysed before reaching to the final conclusion. To commence, out of many positive reasons one of the major arguments to support such revolution is the opportunity to fight against the scarcity of food all over the globe. To illustrate, many parts of the world has been suffering with the lack of enough agriculture products, due to various reasons like climate, geography or other natural or manmade problems. In this scenario, the scientific methods will not only...

Describe a custom from your country that you would like people from other countries to adopt. Explain your choice, using specific reasons and examples.

Custom means a traditional and widely accepted way of that is specific to a particular society, place, or time. Every nation has its own peculiar set of customs and traditions and in the era of globalization it is quite common to see the influence of different cultures from different countries. In this scenario, if I am to suggest something from my country to be followed in other parts of the world, from many important customs of India, I would suggest bowing down or touching feet of respected elders.  Let me elaborate this in details. To start with, this is the custom wherein we Indians respect our elders by bowing down to them and take their blessings by touching their toes.This custom is not merely a habit developed in our gestures, but this teaches us many things. Firstly, whenever some younger one meets some one elder to him, possessing good virtues, knowledge, power or good values, he usually touches his fit by bending down. This is a gesture of respect. This would deve...

Most countries want to improve the standard of living through economic development, however, others think the social value is lost as a result. Do you think the advantages of economic development outweigh the disadvantages?

Solid economy is one of the most desired goal for majority of the nations with a view to providing better life qualities to their citizens.However, there is also a belief that this approach can lead to lose the social values. Personally, I could not agree with this, as I believe financial strength is a must for the nation not only in improving the life standards of the people but also for making their lives more contempt in many ways. This essay will discuss both the sides of the argument. To commence, economic growth will provide more comfortable and convenient life styles to people and this will serve many purposes. for example, if a country is economically stronger it would be able to provide higher standards of health and hygiene, education, medication, employment, entertainment along with safety and security to its people.This will lead to better circulation of money in itself and in turn it would help the government to balance economy in much better way. Moreover, if the pe...

A person's worth nowadays seems to be judged according to social status and material possessions. Old-fashioned values, such as honour, kindness and trust, no longer seem important. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

In this materialistic era, lot of people judge others by the status they have in the society with regard to their job title and the things they possess in life. However, it does not in any sense claim that moral values or ethics have no importance nowadays. I would say that I partially agree to the given statement claiming people are judged with their physical assets rather, people are usually judged by the way they behave and responds others. To commence, even though it is agreed that people nowadays get more attracted towards showy life style, it in no mean suggests values are dying. First of all, job status and material possession do not help much when one is lacking a good character or good family background. For example, I have neighbour who possesses almost all the luxuries of life and lives a lavish life but almost no one from my society has even terms of talking with him, just because he has been to jail numbers of time in some criminal cases. This proves people sti...

Nowadays in many families, the grandparents are responsible for bringing up children. Is it a good or bad development for grandparents? Give your own opinion and examples.

In today's contemporary era, with changing life styles, the roles of family members are changing. Owing to the hectic schedules of young couples, their children are mostly looked after by the older members of the family. Even though it seems quite relaxing trend at present, in my belief it would have numbers of harmful effect in the longer run for the aged people as they may face problems with their health at this age. To begin with, even though it seems quite relaxing trend for working couples, it is practically difficult for senior people due to their poor health at this age. For instance, taking care of children requires lot of energy and agility itself, whereas old age people are usually found lacking stamina or suffering with lot of other age-related problems. Hence, giving them burden of children’s care will surely put them in trouble. Moreover, I personally feel that the former generation usually have had already contributed enough for the family and they have spent ...
