Q:Some believe that more academic subjects, such as chemistry, physics and history,
should be taught in schools, while others believe that students will derive more benefit from studying practical subjects, such as motor mechanics and cooking.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
It is often believed that academic subjects should hold more significance in
students curriculum, while the other side of the coin believes practical subjects can be more beneficial for students. This essay will first explain how academic subjects gives knowledge about complex phenomena's and later discuss how practical subjects help students in securing job right after high school. Academic subjects are crucial for securing a decent job. These subjects provide all the necessary knowledge required for understanding complex phenomenen around us. Moreover, many decent job descriptions require knowledge, and expertise of academic subjects. To illustrate, all the jobs listed on career.com has clearly mentioned the requirement of having knowledge about academic subjects. Nevertheless, the significance of practical subjects cannot be denied. Practical subjects equip students with different skills. With these skills students can get jobs right after finishing high school. Furhermore, students dont have to go for universities to finish and polish their practical skills. For instance, in order to be a resturant manager one need certain years of experience rather than attaining a bachelor's degree. In conclusion, although academic subjects are crucial for better jobs, practical subjects are equaly significant. In my opinion students must learn academic subjects, as well as academic subjects.
