Students Should Not Work in High School Working in high school can have some advantages such as teaching responsibility and the value of a dollar; however, the effects can be harmful to grades, social life and relationships with parents for many teenagers and cause behavioral problems. Many teenagers experience a drop in grades because working takes away from their study and homework time. They lack time to spend with friends; therefore they feel distant and sometimes lack social experiences. Most of the time they spend less and less time with their families and parents; therefore causing them to feel left out. Many behavioral problems and some health issues can also be linked to working in high school.
Juvenile crime is highest between 3 pm and 7 pm because kids are out of school" later school times ill prevent juvenile crime. So in conclusion, not only will later school start times improve grades, attendance, and behavior, but also society. It will ease the stress of teachers and parents, but also kids. It will also reduce the level of juvenile
Rosenthal and Jacobson's study showed that young children were effected more by labelling than older students, this is because the younger ones will start to believe the label that they have been given, which then leads to self-fulfilling prophecy, they live up to what they have been labelled as. They did a field experiment, giving teachers false information about the students and their IQ scores. They found that the students performed in line with the false information that the teachers had, regardless to the actual IQ scores. This showed that the teachers focus more on the 'higher IQ' students to make them achieve even higher rather than helping the 'lower IQ' students to help them improve. This is a limitation of their study because the 'lower IQ' students are getting ignored/not the main focus to the teacher so these students will not improve as much.
Can Students Learn Critique The article “Can Students Learn to Learn?” focuses on why some students perform better in school than others. There are many different reasons because all students vary but some of the main factors relate to the need for students to have metacognition. Metacognition is being able to understand why we learn the way we learn. A student with metacognition may realize after a disappointing test that they didn’t study hard enough and need to devote more time to academics; but a student without metacognition may just blame the professor. I find this argument logical because by understanding the way we learn we can perform better in school.
The third reason is they’ll have better behavior. Sometimes it’s very hard for kids to get focused on school ,and cash incentives would be great stimulator. This is the first reason why kids should get paid for the good grades. Kids will have a choice between spending time by TV or computer and spending time to prepare homework . If their priority is make some money, in this case with getting good grades, they will be more focused to complete homework neatly and correctly.
This information supports the fact that students have trouble waking up early and functioning properly at school. Lack of sleep also interferes with problem solving, teens cannot do math, or make right choices under these circumstances. For this reason, school’s should start later to yield the best working states of teenagers. Study by Dr. Kyla Wahlstrom shows that later start times not only benefits academics but also mental health. There was less, tardiness, depression, and teeneagers even began making better desicions.
Many times they will wear clothes that are inappropriate or pressure parents to spend extra money on designer labels. Sometimes students will make these decisions to simply avoid being bullied at school for not being trendy enough. Students that only have the option to wear uniforms have less of a burden showing off brand names or certain styles to peers. For example, a pre-teen girl wouldn’t have the pressure of wearing short shorts or carry a Coach handbag just to impress her friends or get attention from boys. Additionally, schools will have less violence and see discipline increase among students because they will not have issues with anger or jealously based on what others are wearing.
Having officers who can double as educators will help kids relate and spend time with these officers making it more likely for them to ask for help in times of need. Without an escalation of police officers in schools we cannot assume that the students will take it upon themselves to solve these problems and more likely they will become worse over time. “In the 2009-2010 school year alone 1,183,700 violent crimes were committed at American public schools according to the department of education and department of justice. Many of these violent crimes have gone unreported to police.”(cnsnews.com) These crimes include rape, sexual battery other than rape, physical attack, fights, and robbery with or without weapons. These bone chilling crimes committed by these youths and young adults could be lessened if not completely stopped by police escalation in these institutions.
Over 60% of students had cheated in the past month, which is fairly recent, and a staggering 83% had cheated in the past quarter. This showed us that cheating is an on going problem that almost certainly happens daily in Perry Hall High. To sum up our survey we asked students to tell us how big of a problem they though cheating was in our school on a scale from 1 to 5, 5 being the most serious. 41% responded a 3 with the rest of the figure split evenly between 1,2,4, and 5. We concluded from this that students don’t really care about the subject or are indifferent about it.
At the end of each tier a participant’s academic progress is analyzed, if it is determined that farther intervention is appropriate, then, the student is moved to the next tier. Because RTI uses a unique and innovative approach to learning students and parents may feel more receptive to it. An Overview It is very frustrating for educators when a student is struggling in their academics but continues through the grade levels. School administrators are likely to recommend placing the student in special education classes. Unfortunately this cannot be achieved unless a student is tested for and labeled as learning disabled.
