The point of this essay was to show parents and teachers
that there is a better way of teaching students. The way he refers to is by patience
and by the “naturel” method. This method basically states that one should let
their child/student do things naturally; they should let them think and act
freely as long as it does not exceed the behavioral limits that are set on
them. By using this method, it is also allowing the student, as long as the
rest of the class, to think with a more open mind and choose their own path in
life or education. It is also teaching the parents/educators to be more
patient, which can become useful to everybody.
This essay would not be effective if it were to be presented
to the wrong crowd; in this case, the audience is the readers of the magazine,
but it is mostly effective to educators and parents. If educators and parents were to follow Ralph
Waldo Emerson’s theories, a completely new and improved education system could
be formed, which can be experimented with and eventually used. If this method
were to be enforced throughout schools, it would not only make teachers more
patient, but also much more understanding. One issue with the “naturel” method
is the fact that students might try to take advantage of the freedom given to
them, but that can be changed over time.
This essay is very effective to the audience and is able to
reach its purpose of persuading and educating.
Talar, you have written your SOAPST correctly and your post was written in a way that was easy to understand. Your explanations were done extremely well and accurate. Your writing style for this post was amazing and it was to the point! Awesome work and wonderful job!
ReplyDeleteKeep on writing!!
I also wrote about "Education" and I completely agree with Emerson's idea of how students should be taught in school. You did a wonderful job with elaborating on Emerson's "natural method", but I think you could have written more about it. Then again I could say that your blog was summarized and to the point instead of the extensive lines of repetition. Students should naturally find themselves in school and work to earn high grades. Keep up the excellent effort Talar!
