College study is a higher from of education which is required in many jobs. In our journey of learning, beside the tests and experiments, attendance is also one of the most important factors that decide our results. People who have their own situation and cannot go to class every day, but the policy of college do not allow to missing too three times. Although many people feel that attendance is the most important things, I believe that attendance should be optional for three reasons.
The first reason is that most the people who attend a college are adults, so they should be responsible in their life. In college, we do not only learn about what in the textbook is, but college also teaches us how to show our thinking, how to work with others, how to get life's experiences, and how to be responsible. Therefore, people who are in college have the right way to decide to go to class or not because they are not children or teenagers anymore. They are supposed to figure out that they go to class because they need to, and they have thought about school clearly, so that they can notice the important of college in their life. If they choose to stay at home instead of going to classes, they were willing to deal with the result. So there is no reason to make attendance to be imperative.
Second, nowadays, most college classes use computers to control all work, and most teachers have a private web-page for their own class. For instance, my friend Peter, who had been in a serious car accident, was luckily secured on last Christmas. Unfortunately, he has had to stay in the hospital for six months, but he is international student and must come to school legally to stay in the United States. Both his teachers agreed to give him a priority to study through the computer instead of going to classes. After that semester, he came back to school without problem about attendance and graduated with an excellent degree. How it could happen? That is because the computers can have all information, such as lectures, handouts, schedule, grades, events, or homework, so that the student can know everything just by staying at home. That is why attendance is becoming less and less importance in college.
Finally, attendance should not be required because our society has a diversity of people in college including single, married, and workers. Moreover, every single person has their own situations to prevent them make a perfect attendance. To single people, they might go to school every day, but to married and workers, most of the time college cannot be a first choice for them. For example, some they might have family members sick, they have to work extra time to get money for their life, or most college and children's school don't have the same holiday. In that case, parents have to decide stay home instead of being an outstanding student. So if attendance is required and someone fails because of it with a justifiable reason, it will be a pity for them even though the can still catch up with the class. Vanessa, one of my classmates, told me," I am going to fail my classes because I missed too many hours. I do not want to, but my son, he is really sick, and he might have just only 3 months left. I am his mother, so that my son is the most importance to me."
To summarize, attendance is importance in education, but college is a place of people who are intelligent and responsible enough to make their own decisions. There are many difficult reasons to prevent students going to classes every day. Therefore, the attendance should be optional in college to help some unlucky people who will complete their course works even if they do not attend classes.
The first reason is that most the people who attend a college are adults, so they should be responsible in their life. In college, we do not only learn about what in the textbook is, but college also teaches us how to show our thinking, how to work with others, how to get life's experiences, and how to be responsible.
It is good if you began this body paragraph with the reason. What is the real reason here? It is that college students are capable of handling their own learning process and therefore there is no need of having such classroom discipline in order to ensure they complete their studies properly. So, begin your para with this reason.
Dear, Dumi. Thank you very much for helping me. I am very appreciative. Would you like to tell me any out of topic problem in my body paragraph parts? Have a wonderful day!
For instance, my friend Peter, who had been in a serious car accident, was luckily secured on last Christmas.
... that latter part is pretty confusing.... did you mean -
For example, my friend Peter met with a serious car accident and had a narrow escape.but he is an international student and must come to school legally to stay in the United States.
but he is an international student and by US regulation, international students should maintain a good record of attendance.Well, you are not going out of topic, but you need to align your writing more with the task of your prompt. With practice you can improve and we will help you do that!
You too have a wonderful day! :)
