Prompt:
Some people argue that because the Internet makes it so easy for children to access facts, schools should not focus on teaching facts. Instead, they should focus on developing children’s skills and potential, and their relationships with other people.
To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
My Writing:
Nowadays, as technology is more advanced, children are able to search for information more easily. Schools should not place too much attention on talking about facts. Instead, they should be improving the innate skills of the children themselves. I agree that developing children’s skills is more important.
If people learn online, they can find a lot of videos of professionals teaching subjects that they are less familiar with. They can also find exercises there to practice by themselves to score better on their tests or exams. Students can also find different ways to answer questions that they do not understand.
One skill that can be taught by schools is social skills. People can learn how to communicate with each other in order to tell others what to do. For example, a group of classmates with efficient communication skills would know what they need to prepare for a presentation. They can also practice leadership skills. For example, in a football match, if the captain has good leadership, he would be able to lead the team to victory. The team members need to cooperate with each other in order to achieve success.
In conclusion, I think that students should develop skills instead of learning about mere facts.
