Some people believe that students should be taught international news as a subject at school.

Others feel that this would be a waste of valuable school time.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

While some think that international news should include curriculum for students at school, others
believe that this matter would waste precious school time. I partly agree with teaching international
news as they finally find out news between nations.

Schooling is a way that exists in countries to promote children's knowledge and make them ready to
enter a society. Because of this, we cannot eliminate the school skills and abilities they need to a
helpful member in the society. While we know they go to their homes after school and it cannot
isolate that not knowing news and press their parents expose and naturally they will be expose. So
their parents talk about international decision of government on their financial situation. Even if
they do not pursue this, they will find out some facts between their parents' speech. On the other
hand, even in the families without paying attention to nation press and broadcast on TV and
newspapers, we have social media on children's hand that will familiarize them to some news in the
world at last. For example, interrupting online games because of noticing a countries election result
would cause children to ask their parents why this is happening.

Others that contradict with making consist world news says it distracts students because there are
stressful news that may affect normal life. They say even we have one hour course in a week, it will
impact disastrous on children's mind. Therefore, it will prevent from focusing on their essential
lessons, and it reduces the efficiency of time when they are at school. Furthermore, we can replace it
by better skills like making handiwork or learning third language. The other aspect of opposition
group is that they say if they expose nation news, they might decide to choose special profession in
the future and while we teach all of them those, we need a wide range of jobs in the society. We
cannot have maximum of them serve the military as a career or go to political school at universities.
But as there are lot of courses in the school curriculum and societies have experienced a range of
selection determined by students in the past, this will not affect badly.

All in all, exposing students by international news not only make them mature and invite them to
some political discussion at home and social media, but it can also prevents them from being
isolated. It adjusts them with those kind of news and lead them to opt for the best profession they
can qualify in the future.
