I think the purpose we go to the college is being taught and getting some kind of knowledge, not being indoctrinated with some kind of believing. We come to the college, and then we get the knowledge. We use the knowledge to think about the world which we are living in; then we find out the believing that we want to be in. So, for me, the teachers should not indoctrinate the ideas they have to us; they can tell, but not to make us to believe those points of views. What we need from the teachers are the ways of studying, the senses of knowing something, the direction of finding out our believing. As being college students, we don’t really need the teachers to tell us what to do and how to do for everything. You may believe what the teacher tells you when you were in the high school, but as a college student, I think we have to learn about doubting things. We are in the age that we have to think more about things than to accept things. That said, in a classroom, the teacher should know what to teach the student is the best, and the students should clear about their needs and choose the parts which are good for them.

I agree that teachers should present information rather than try to indoctrinate us with their views. At the same time, though, I see how it can be good for a teacher to carefully present his or her views. To, me, it shows that they have thought critically enough about the topic to form their view. At least, I hope they have. This is what my essay is about, and reading they Conspiracy Theory essay really made me think back on my own academic experience relating to if my teachers chose to present their views, and how they went about it.
ReplyDeletei agree, students goes to school is to be taught and not hearing some else believe and what they think, students shouldnt pay for some else opinion they should pay for the subject that they want to learn
ReplyDeleteYes, being a college student can have own thoughts in the class. They don't have to agree with all points what the instructors say in the class. However, I think instructors can share their viewpoints in the classes because of academic freedom. They also can sum up their experience and lessons. That will contribute students improving their study.
