With the use of technology, students now know how volcanoes are formed with a click of a button. Find out more about other cultures in which maybe their teachers do not even know the existence of, as well as share their creative works online and get instant comments on it. Now, these are things one can never do without the use of technology. Sure, everything works both ways, but just as it is harming teens through stuff such as pornography and vulgar content, it is also helping teens learn more about their world even more than what the classroom can offer them. The use of calculators, as stated in the context, will not decrease any teen's mental ability to do maths as long as he/she knows how to do the question with or without a calculator. Furthermore,in the future, I don't think bosses will go "I want you to calculate my company's profits for me. and you're not allowed to use a calculator!" In fact, it applies just about any occupations the teens may undertake in the future. Even teachers use calculators when calculating basic scores and statistics. Does that make their mental ability to do maths deteriorate? I don't think so.
Cellphones should be allowed in schools as they provide a communication platform where teachers can readily contact a student in case of any matter. It would make a teacher easily be able to check up on students who are absent, reasons they are missing in class, and so forth. Also, as students nowadays are more comfortable with opening up through non face-to-face interaction, staff and/or counsellors can embrace this influx of cellphones in school to try and get the more reserved students to open up in the face of adversity should they need emotional guidance.
Diplomats SHOULD enjoy immunity as after-all, they belong to and represent the country from where they come from. This means that the country from which they come from should be responsible for their misconduct or misbehavior. This would also prevent diplomats from getting into 'nonsensical trouble' in which the country they are in has laws which are disagreeable with that of their own country's. And since they represent the country they are from, it is only right that they be prosecuted and held responsible by the jurisdiction from that country and not the one they are in.
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
