Task Overview

Doctor Achebe

Next, we’ll be discussing the future of higher education, focusing on proposals for making postsecondary education (education after high school) more efficient and more accessible. One such proposal is to make class attendance optional. For instance, under an optional-attendance policy, university students could choose not to attend classes but instead study the course materials and acquire the knowledge on their own time. Their grade would then be based entirely on exams or papers. What are your thoughts on this approach?

Claire

I like the idea of optional attendance. University students have a lot going on, and sometimes it’s difficult to make it to class. As long as students are held accountable for the information they’re supposed to learn, I don’t see why they should have to attend every class session, especially for classes that meet multiple times a week.

Andrew

I have to disagree with Claire. I think that class attendance policies foster another important kind of accountability. They teach discipline and responsibility. Many of the jobs that university or trade school students will pursue after graduation have their own attendance policies, so students should see class attendance as good preparation for entering the workforce.

Although Andrew make a valid points about the benefits of the attendence polices, I would like to regard the optional-sttendance a better strategy, as it provides more freedom to students and it's not necessary to attend every class. I concur with Claire's view that it solve the university students' problem on attend all lessons by making it optional and providing sufficient course material. The teaching style of university, which basically is listening to a lecture, is not fit for every single person. Lots of person can apply better effiency of studing by reading materials on their own. If they met problems or there are acquried group works, they can still go on class as it's volunteered. Furthermore, I understand that Andrew believes the attendance policy let students perpared for future career, however, I am convinced that there are still numerous jobs that have more flexibility. Lot of companies nowadays, especially on the bussiness or financial field, don't impose their employees to certain attendancy. It is their working effieciency and ability that is most considerable criteria.

6.文章修订

Although Andrew presents valid points regarding the benefits of attendance policies, I firmly believe that optional attendance is a more effective strategy for higher education, as it provides greater flexibility to students and acknowledges that attending every class may not be necessary.

I concur with Claire's view that optional attendance can alleviate the pressure on university students to attend all sessions by providing comprehensive course materials. The traditional lecture-based teaching style may not suit every individual. Many students can achieve better study efficiency by reviewing materials independently. If they encounter difficulties or need to participate in group work, they can still attend classes voluntarily.

Furthermore, while Andrew argues that attendance policies prepare students for future careers, it is essential to consider the changing nature of the workforce. Numerous jobs today, particularly in business and finance sectors, offer increased flexibility to employees. Companies such as Google and Facebook implement flexible work arrangements, emphasizing efficiency and ability over strict attendance requirements.

By adopting an optional attendance policy, higher education institutions can cater to diverse learning styles and better prepare students for the evolving professional landscape. (184 words)

To be more detailed, professor spend their time in preparing the class and teaching students. If his students do not attend the class, the professor may be disoppointed to them and even lose the motivation off teaching. For instance, if there is a biology teacher and he spend massive time in trying to make the class attractive by creating more activities and group works. However, when he is having the class, only few people sit there and he can not organize the activites because of lack of students.

6.文章修订

I concur with Andrew's perspective that students should not have the option to choose whether or not to attend classes. Firstly, it is essential for students to demonstrate their commitment and respect towards their professors. Professors invest significant time and effort in preparing engaging lectures and activities, and a lack of attendance may lead to disappointment and diminished motivation.

For example, consider a biology professor who devotes considerable time to designing interactive group activities aimed at enhancing the learning experience. However, when only a few students attend the class, it becomes impossible to execute these activities effectively due to insufficient participation. Consequently, by the end of the semester, most students may not even know who their biology professor is, leading the educator to question their dedication towards teaching.

In essence, enforcing mandatory class attendance promotes a sense of responsibility and discipline among students while also fostering a more productive learning environment. This approach ensures that both students and professors remain engaged and motivated throughout the academic term. (168 words)

Though Claire raises a valid argument concerning the merits of optional attendance, Andrew, however, contradicts with Claire's idea by highlighting the importance of discipline and responsibility. From my perspective, nothing is more comprehensive and fair to take regular attendances into account when it comes to students' evaluation. Besides Andrew' rational, one of the merits of necessary class attendance is that it recognize and reward self-disciplined students who form the good habit of attending the class on time. In the fiercely competing job market, only can highly disciplined candidates win out and they also get promoted easily in the workplace. Therefore, attendance should be considered as a significant indicator of evaluating students.

As the social society continues to advance, students are becoming increasingly busier than before. In this context, I think that it is a wise idea for students to study courses on their own time. Firstly, I think all students are different, so their learning speed is totally different, and they are always good at adverse areas, which could lead to inefficiency for them to learn in a same classroom. Moreover, it is effective for them to acquire knowledge on their own time, which they can choose their favorite places and time to study. As a result, it will be beneficial for students' progression and let them feel more enjoyable on studying. For example, I found it is efficient for me to learn during night but the courses in the university are always in the morning, which lead to a negative influence on my grade. While I understand Andrew's idea that attendance is essential in the society, but I want to say that as the progression of the society, the environment is becoming more and more flexible, which means people have more choices on the things they want to do. In conclusion, I think studying on their own could be beneficial for most students because it means more opportunities and more choices.

In today's rapidly evolving society, students face increasing demands on their time and energy. Consequently, I believe that allowing students to study course materials at their own pace and in their preferred environment would be a more effective approach to higher education. This flexibility acknowledges the diverse learning styles and preferences of individual students, enabling them to optimize their academic performance.

For instance, some students may find it more productive to study at night rather than during traditional daytime hours when classes are typically scheduled. By offering the option to engage with course content outside of a rigid classroom structure, institutions can empower students to take ownership of their education and pursue knowledge in a manner that aligns with their unique strengths and interests.

While I recognize Andrew's argument that mandatory attendance policies can instill discipline and responsibility, it is important to consider the changing landscape of professional environments. As workplaces become increasingly adaptable and offer greater autonomy for employees, higher education should reflect this shift by fostering self-directed learning. In doing so, universities can better prepare graduates for success in the modern workforce while simultaneously enhancing student satisfaction and engagement in the educational process. (199 words)

It is widely-acknowledged that students spend a significant part of the time to academic pursuits, making them have on ideas that what the thing they are truly interested in. By expanding knowledges themselves, they will have the opportunities to step beyond their comfort zones, delve their interests, and find their untapped talents.

In my opinion, Claire's suggestion of optional attendance in higher education holds merit, as it can potentially foster self-discovery and personal growth among students. It is well-known that university students dedicate a considerable amount of time to their academic pursuits, often leaving them with limited opportunities to explore their genuine interests. By allowing students the flexibility to acquire knowledge independently, they can venture beyond their comfort zones, delve into their passions, and uncover hidden talents. Furthermore, optional attendance grants them the freedom to engage in diverse experiences such as traveling, part-time employment, and pursuing hobbies.

In my opinion, I concur with Andrew’s perspective that university students should be required to attend classes, as it can help students gain a solid foundation of knowledge and skills. To elaborate, thorough training and vigorous curriculums enable university students to learn the essence of knowledge quickly and better acquire the skills required for professional development. For instance, many universities have outstanding and well-achieved faculties that possess cutting-edge techniques and strong academic backgrounds. The courses offered by them can be significantly beneficial to students’ understanding as well as future developments. Instead of studying the course materials on their own randomly, the systemic courses can better boost their performance and enhance their abilities. Admittedly, some people may argue that optional attendance can provide more flexibility to students in their studies since they can decide their own learning pace. However, I contend that it will exert detrimental impacts on their productivity and enthusiasm for studying, as they may easily slack off due to their indiscipline.
