When talking about how a child should be educated, there is always be a discussion about how
their time should be better spent. On one hand there is a group of people who declare that
Physical Education is essential and must be included in school children curriculum. But on the
other hand, there are some people who affirm that Physical Education in schools is a total waste of
time; instead, children ought to spend more time on academic subjects. In my point of view,
schools must encourage Physical Education through kids; moreover, it should be included in the
curriculum two or three times per week. However, this may not imply that kids loose capacities in
academic subjects.
Childhood is an epoch of live which is represented by many changes in kids’ body. Consequently, a
rich nutrition in vitamins and physical activity will determine how healthy children will grow. That
is a strong argument of why sports should be introduced in kids´ daily routine, and it could also be
bound with good feeding habits. Another important aspect is that, it is scientifically demonstrated
that physical activities will eventually improve kids learning capacities, which will result in better
grades on academic subjects and it will also positively affect kids’ creativity. Therefore, it is really
important that schools foster those activities on kids.
Nonetheless, Physical Education should not be the focus on school’s curriculum, because it is only
one of the multiple skill a kid should develop. Academic subjects is as essential as physical
activities; in fact, they complement kids’ education, giving them more technical and social abilities.
Those types of subjects teach leadership, entrepreneurship, and math thinking; abilities which are
being demanded by a society that is becoming really strict. So, if kids are supposed to be
successful in both professional and academic careers, they need to acquire different elements
from school.
In my opinion, Schools need to create a balance which equilibrate academic subjects and physical
subjects, taking into account that both have really benefits for kids growth.
During the evolution of mobile technology, new developments has brought more benefits for the
human individual. Consequently, the mobile phone market has been positively affected by massive
buys of mobiles for both personal and professional uses. On the contrary, due to the dangerous
effects mobiles may induce on health and on society, governments need to decide of whether they
should impose some restrictions to ownerships of mobile phones, and limit the use of mobiles just
for companies. I agree that the use of mobile phones should only be free for companies and
limited by higher taxes to common user.
On one hand, technology and mobile phones has created several issues to our society. For
instance, the amount of people with depression has enormously increased, due to lack of human
company for the teenagers and adults. Connectivity has also created a new generation of kids with
social abilities deficiencies, and also a potential dependance of electric devices. Eventually this will
have consequences in how skilled are human beings for problem solution, leaving the big
problems to machines.
On the other hand, the environment is being seriously affected by the industrial production of
mobile technology, which is generating more mobile industrial production and more littering; and
this problem will keep rising due to the big necessity of electrical devices in our houses. For that
reason, I support the idea that governments impose measures to limit the production and the
consume of mobile phones.
Gathering all this information, it is necessary to encourage more measures in order to decrease
the use and the production of mobile phones. Otherwise, the damage to the environment and the
inability of the human being in solving problems, will continue until they reach points where there
are irreparable consequences.
One of the major conclusions of some investigations that a great amount of scientist has
developed is that the most percentage of that number of overweight people are teenagers;
additionally, some studies have concluded that there are two recurrent causes: 1) Addiction to
technological devices and videogames and 2) Addiction to junk food. In order to attack the first
problem named, it is a efficient solution to encourage sports in schools and invest in sports
facilities in Schools and neighborhood. Through those mechanisms, we will surely increase the
hours spent by adolescents who practice physical activities outside; also improving the health of
many people.
However, this solution will not be determinant if the health care system, helped by the
government, begin campaigns in order to divulgate the consequences of eating junk food to the
consumers. The reception of this information could be boost by introducing new taxes to the
production companies of those types of food. If the only measure taken is to reinforce the physical
education in school curriculum, the potential impact to the society could be seriously reduce.
To conclude with my opinion and sum up the information given, the widely introduction of new
sport subjects in academic institutions, will have great impacts in the teenager society.
Nonetheless, this solution will not attack the key causes of the problem. To my point of view, to
help this big idea to reach the most people possible, both Academic Sector, Health System and
Government need to work together and take care different fronts of the problem.
Over the 21th Century, Globalization has been popularized and constantly growing though the
tourism which has become one of the most successful businesses and it is the main economic
sustain for many non-developed countries. The spread of English as the most spoken language by
tourists and host country population, has only improved the communication between different
cultures. This lead some people to think that English is going to become the only language spoken,
referring to a great amount of advantages, without even think about the disadvantages. In this
Essay, we will discuss if disadvantages can overweight advantages.
On the one hand, the widely spread of the English language is creating a more internationalized
society; in fact, some of non-developed countries have just begun trading its national products to
well developed countries, bringing benefits to both sides. The capability to communicate between
communities has helped the humanity to diversify culturally and to comprehend that the earth
does not belong to any one; on the contrary we belong to our only home-planet. So, if we are
talking about advantages, we can say we have been benefited economically and personally.
However, anthropologist, which are expert people on studying ancient societies and cultural
expanse, they have warned about the dangerous effects that globalization could cause in
minorities cultural communities. They have affirmed that the lack of rights which are supposed to
protect those communities could lead to the extinction of some races and cultures. This have a
side-effect to the tourism as a business, because one of the principal reasons for people to travel
abroad is to know different types of cultures, and if there is no diversification, there will be a
massive absence of traveling.
In conclusion, the benefits of a unification in languages are notable and has some advantages to
tourism and the diversification of cultures; nonetheless, governments should encourage the
spread of national cultures, because the extinction of a culture could have enormous problems to
the economic and the tourism. Therefore, English should not become the only language to be
spoken; conversely, foreign people must adapt to the local language and enjoy the delightful
diversification of cultures.
Throughout the last century and until now, there have always been two sides which have
discussed the most optimal way to become successful in professional life. On the one hand, there
is a group of people which affirm that getting a university degree is the best option to get an
important job. But on the other hand, there are some people who argue this point, and conversely
think that getting experience and improving social skills bring more benefits in order to become
professionally successful. In my opinion, both arguments are valid, and have much importance
when getting a job. However, for many companies it is more reliable to hire professional
graduated people.
We have grown in a society which has educated our generation on the path everyone must take to
become a successful adult; in other words, we are constantly being prepared to serve well to our
community. Due to social pressure, we think that going to a university and getting a degree is the
only option to become professional successful. In order to that, a great percentage of our
company are in the track of well-prepared professionals, with amazing completed degrees and
awarded by the best universities known. Therefore, there are more chances to be hired in a
company, having a professional education; regardless, how much experience and leadership some
people could have.
In the reality, university graduated candidates are always struggling with their lack of social skills,
because they have never been taught of those in the academic sector; therefore, this is an
argument of those people who support other alternatives than going to university. In addition,
there are some examples of successful people who did not go to university, and have created
amazing software or rich companies. From my point of view, social skills and professional
experience are very important to become recognized inside a company; however, they are most
important when a person is trying to develop their own businesses and companies, and not to get
a job place.
To sum up, over the years, society has grown people believing that the only important factor to be
a prominent professional is to have the best university degree; therefore, this is the most
important feature that companies are looking for. Nonetheless, skills and experience in jobs are
some issues that some academic professional have to deal with; and those factors are only
essential when trying to create a company or develop our own business.
Some scientists have suggested that childhood is one of the most important epochs in life; in fact,
from the successful education that some kids have, depends how brilliant can children become,
and how many skills they will develop. However, there are a lot of ways schools can teach kids,
and those paths can be controversial to some groups of people. On one hand, there are some
parents which prefer their children to be focused in subjects they are best at or subject with their
most interest. But on the other hand, there are some who insist that children should learn all
subjects in school. In my opinion and from my experience with kids, I think that teaching all types
of activities and subject to children it is better to enhance their brain growing and skill developing.
The advantages to include all types of subjects in school’s curriculum for kids are uncountable. But
one of the most essential factors is that a widely range of education could strengthen kids’
creativity, and will apport some new experiences which children could use them back in the
future. In addition of that, creativity and experience in different life situation is one vital factor to
be successful in life; moreover, this could be an advantage to be chosen in a company rather than
some other applicants.
Additionally, another great advantage of educating children on all subjects is that prevent one of
the big problems which is the addiction to the online world. In order to support this idea, we could
think that if the kids are constantly being stimulated with more physical activities and academic
subjects, which could comprehend practical activities and funny theorical lectures; kids could
moderate their use of electronic devices, helped by their parents. Therefore, there are a lot of
advantages of a multiple skill education.
In conclusion, my position is to teach kids a wide range of interesting subjects understanding that
children learn new thing in a different way than adults. And doing so, we are expanding the
choices that our teenager could choose for a hobby, preventing kids to get addicted to technology,
and stimulating their mental growth.
