Education plays a crucial role in molding the future of our youths. Schools are
painstakingly at work in producing bright young students. However, the current
generation of students would rather gain popularity than to work hard.
Loitering is becoming
rampant among them. Some even skip school to loiter. How do we
address this? First and foremost, we cannot undermine the power of education.
Parents should teach their children the importance of education. In school,
teachers ought to instill the importance of
studying hard for the sake of a bright future. Often, students do not understand
the relevance of their actions in the present. Perhaps by listening to both
parents and teachers, students will be able to realize that persevering in their
studies will undoubtedly improve their lives in the future.
Besides that, schools must increase the number of discipline teachers.
Discipline teachers should also be given the green light to punish students who
disobey any school rules or regulations. By doing so, students will be afraid to
loiter and choose to stay in the classroom instead.
Moreover, teachers should strive to include new methods of teaching in their
daily lessons. Their teaching technique should always be upgraded to suit the
changing needs of students. By doing so, the lesson in class becomes more
enjoyable and students will be more interested to study. Interactive methods of
teaching such as using computers and LCD will attract the attention of today's
tech-savvy students.
Last but not least, schools and the community could organize more interesting
activities after school hours. If something interesting is happening, many
youths would be attracted to participate. For example, if there is a talent
contest or a dance competition, I am sure many of our youths would have no time
for loitering. Co-curricular activities in school should also be more relevant
and interesting in order to captivate their attention.
The problem of loitering has plagued many schools for a long time. Loitering
can be solved if steps are taken immediately to curb it. The youths are our
nation's future leaders and should be taken care of to ensure a prosperous
nation. |
