Writing Feedback / IELTS;A government's role is only to provide defence capability and urban infrastructure [2]

A government's role is only to provide defence capability and urban infrastructure (roads, water supplies, etc.). All other services (education, health, social security) should be provided by private groups or individuals in the community.

The primary function of every government is to provide basic needs to their countrymen Irrespective of poor, rich or any other differences. Privatization might affect people badly because there are many poor students, patients, workers completely relied on government funds. Thus, giving control to private groups or individual in the community will compromise things.

Firstly, In India, government spends around 200 Lakh crore rupees/annum for health care. Indian Health Care System has implemented a new plan called "AROGYA SHREE" which helps poor people(annual income less than 1 Lakh rupees) to access any government hospital for free medical emergency's. Similarly, In Canada health care is absolutely free. In fact even United States is trying to introduce Obama Care, not yet though. Hence, Privatization cannot provide above plans that are saving some millions of valuable lives.

Furthermore, In Germany 90% of universities provide free education based on few pre-requisites. In fact education is primary right of every citizen in Germany. Thus, Germany stands tall on literacy rates around the world. Similarly, there are many countries which are introducing education plans for poor students Irrespective of their credentials or any educational achievements. While privatization cannot provide free education to poor students. In fact no private firm or university or school in any country would give a chance for any student only based on his economical status-excluding merit of student. But government from ages doing it successfully. Similarly, Social Security is primary right of every citizen in any country but privatization might tag a price to it.

In addition to this, limiting a government role for defence or urban infrastructure will be an unwise decision. In fact considering the significance of basic needs-Education, Health and Social Security are primary where as Defense and Urban Infrastructure has to be always secondary for government. Thus, government role in above mentioned examples is very vital which can be seen or experienced daily.

Writing Feedback / Work place or research updates will help universities in showing direction to educate students [6]

Some people think that universities should provide graduates with the knowledge and skills needed in the workplace. Others think that the true function of a university should be to give access to knowledge for its own sake, regardless of whether the course is useful to an employer. What, in your opinion, should be the main function of a university?

Basically universities should focus extensively on giving access to practical and real time industrial knowledge. Any information which is completely understood is called Knowledge when it is experienced called Realization. Thus, I strongly believe that universities should design their courses based on modern research and skills needed in the workplace.

Firstly, every university has many departments, these departments have different courses and these course's have enormous amount of data or information in different faculties. So, practically it is impossible for any university to educate students with all the information in particular course or field. For Instance, In Physical Science department there are many topics like Light, Sound, Magnetism, Electricity, Nano Science, Quantum Theory etc. Based on recent updates most of the physics research these days is highly focused on Quantum Theory or Theory of Everything. Research on Sound or Electricity is obsolete.. I mean rather than focusing on out dated topic universities should help students mostly on recent research.

Secondly, Business Programs all over the world are mostly preferred by employee's from diverse fields. Employee's can be from Food Industry, Software Industry, Automobile Industry and Construction Industry. So, universities should function based on the recent work place requirements in these industry which might help students invariably to update their knowledge. For example, renowned psychologist Daniel Goleman's ground breaking New York best-seller "Emotional Intelligence" was an unknown subject before 1995. However, every top-class university has included his topic "Emotional Intelligence" into business course curriculum.

Therefore, giving knowledge for it's own sake by university might be obsolete without including recent break through. Work place or research updates will help universities in showing direction to educate students or employee more on specific topic, no body can drive a car by reading books it is a practical experience. Thus, universities must strongly focus on giving practical, relevant, research and work place knowledge.
