Synthesis Essay School

385 Words2 Pages

Schools forcing kids to all do the same things, act the same the way, and think the same way is preposterous. While it may keep students from acting disruptively at times, schools are killing student’s creativity. In other words, schools should not make students follow such strict schedules that constrict their imagination. Not only do schools make up the students schedules, they also choose students classes, this shows how much schools control every aspect of the school day. Students are all forced to go to school, yet many of them would rather not (Source E). One way schools are killing student’s creativity is by choosing all their classes. Schools make students take required classes for certain amount of time, such as, a year and a half

    Synthesis #2 Draft #1 The poems “Songs of Experience: The Chimney Sweeper” and “Hymn to the Intellectual Beauty” written by William Blake and Percy Bysshe Shelley touch on the topic of religion and the lack of importance of this faith in people’s lives. Religion does not bring truth and meaning to life as it is perceived to doreword this . There are topics of greater importance in one’s life, faith is not only put in God and his teachings but a much greater power. Blake followed the religious teachings of Christianity growing up, and still expressed religion as not being the most important belief in his life, ironic for a man of strong beliefs for his religion.

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of How To Get A Real Education

    Society forces students to take classes in which some students might not have a slightest interest in, in the hopes of them becoming successful figures. It is more beneficial for students to take classes in which students are capable to succeed and grow rather then to to force students to sit in classes that give the students no benefits. Scott Adams writes in his article “How to Get a Real Education” about the inefficient school system, he says “is like training your cat to do your taxes”(98). Adams compares “training your cat to do your taxes” to B students in classrooms to show the readers the concept that sometimes students are not capable to do well in a class, and the time they spend in this class could be allocated better. To further his claim Adams uses himself as an example to show his readers that learning things that benefit him proved him well.

Some might think that the weekend is the perfect amount of time to relax; however, most students are still doing school work, and they don’t have enough time for themselves. This will likely affect not only their grades but their attitude in school. Even teachers work during the weekend trying to get in grades and plan out their next lesson. One current policy in education that should be improved is that schools adopt an approach of four school days a week because it benefits both the school and teachers, it improves students’ academic performance, and student attendance greatly increases
