From Compas.

com state that the student delinquency in Indonesia is 75%, drug

addicted is 50-60%,free sex is 90%. Those date are very fantastic and need a
best solution to overcome the problem. It’s all cause of system education that
not supported the student to have a good moral. So here I purpose that
government should apply full day school.
Firstly let me define the proposal

Government Should apply full day school

Indonesia government It is the best solution conducting full
day school. The mechanism: the
school that start from 07.00 am to
16.00 pm. With full student and
teacher schedule. At 07.00a.m. to
12.00 a.m. that academic guidance
and 13.00p.m. to 16.00p.m. that
guidance formation of skill. So nothing
homework because if there is
homework, the students not time to
rest at home and will not time with
family. The date from
Mediamasha.com .
Before applying this program the
school must be coordinate with their
parents.
Why government should apply full day school?
Alright let me analyze from educate point of view
(A)Through applying full day school the number of student delinquency will be decreased.
(R) Their time to do negative thing or something that not too useful will be limited then they will
not involve into the negative environment. Like smoking, drinking, drugs, free-sex, and Involved
many other criminal acts such as gambling, theft and others. So full day school is one of the solution
of the cases.
(E)From Asia Pacific.com state that In Singapore has been applying full day school, start from 07.00
a.m. to 16.00 p.m. The result is student delinquency will be decreased. It means that by full day
school, there is not time to every thing ban.
(L) So that’s why I do agree with this motion ,Because through applying full day school the number of
student delinquency will be decrease with their limited time not to beneficial time.

From educate point of view:

(A)Through applying full day school, the students get full study like academic and vocational skill.
 (R)because in learning process, the students get much knowledge from academic. In academic case
the student can learn from material of the subject that explain how something is coming from and
how it has been. But the academic will only learn of something has been without knowing the way
how to practice start from little thing. Therefore the students need to develop their knowledge
gotten from academic by interest, talents and creativity development. And only applying full day
school this house can balance the academic and its implementation . If they get academic guidance
but they also get skill guidance versus 50-50%. The skill formation includes the interests and talents
of the students that will be developed in accordance hobby students. Why the formation of these
skills? because when they come home from school, at home not doing anything they can channel
their talents and hobbies, in school already facilitated so they have place for their talents and
hobbies. It is balance between academic guidance skill guidance. So the school can be conducted
well.
(E) From Jurnal Asia.com state that 70% the most academic graduates are unemployed because in
this era the worker must have skill to be ready to work.
However, the full-day school will be another educational problem as it will fit in
traditional schooling system in Indonesia.
Before regulating any policy in Indonesian education, policy makers should
consider of what is called by ‘grammar of schooling’, a term referring to regular
structures and rules that organize how schools work. The term of ‘grammar of
schooling’ was introduced by David Tyack and William Tobin from Stanford
University to explain the rules and structures of schools that hindered any
educational innovations and policies.
As we might know that school in Indonesia is rigid organization with clear
objectives, standardized curriculum, and classes are divided and evaluated using
traditional methodologies.
If we look at the daily activities of students in the classroom, we will see exactly
the problem of Indonesian schools. Most of students and teachers are working to
prepare for examination. Therefore, teachers tend to explain lessons abstractly, then
they ask students to work on students’ worksheets to drill material discussed
previously.
While there has been numerous policies such as the newest 2013 curriculum that is
believed to promote active learning and character building, if the structure and
objective of schooling remains the same, any educational innovation will settle on
the structure of traditional schooling practices.
Therefore, the idea of full-day school might fit in the traditional schooling
practices in Indonesia which can add the burden for teachers and students. While
the additional hours are expected for enjoying learning activities, they can turn to
be additional times to do homework. This is similar to what happens when students
approach the national exam, students learn test preparation until afternoon.
Full-day schools will also add burden for teachers in that they should stay at
schools, setting up lesson plan and preparing activities for additional hours. This
could be unfair for them as they also need to get along with their families.
Moreover, some of teachers still get treated unfair, receiving low salary.
I do believe that educational reform is a complex endeavor. Our country has
identified the problems of education countless times, such as the problems of
standardized testings that cause rigid schooling systems and create schools like a
factory rather than nurturing creativity and respects from students.
Rather than regulating controversial full-day school that receive many
disagreements from parents, now it is a time for education policy makers to ponder
about the grammar or rules existing in Indonesian school systems. The rigid rules
such as excessive homework and examinations need to be reconsidered as they kill
students’ developments.
As supposed to teaching students to work collaboratively, the school environment
create individual competitions. In this fast changing world, students need to have a
collaboration and creativity. These real-life skills are lacking from our schools.
To change the grammar of schooling in our country, we need to think about the
objective of schools to assist students develop their skills, knowledge, and
 character. So far, our schooling system has tended to put too many attentions to
knowledge. Therefore, activities in schools should unite those three things in daily
activities by having problem-problem based or project based learning to prepare
for students to the real world learning. In addition, schools should create rules and
structures that can nurture students’ positive behavior and characters such as
respects and cares.

Among the reasons some students reject full-day school, among others, the ability of the
brain is certainly limited in receiving lessons and need to rest, tiredness becomes obstacles
for students so difficult to receive lessons even when the time is added, then full day school
also hampers the activities of students outside school such as reciting and helping parents.
In conclusion, the school is very important, but in addition to learning, of course there is time
for the brain to be rested, half a day more is better enough for students in learning, so that
outside of school students are able to develop other talents and creativity hidden in students

 This topic should be one of the most talked about topics in the country.

"What if the cure for cancer is trapped in the mind of someone who can't afford education?"
Everyone deserves to be educated. It's sad that intelligent people drop out because they can't afford
to take another loan or because books got too expensive. Other students juggle 3 jobs with their
classes. Education wouldn't be free even if it was, we would be paying back our community by
studying hard and getting a decent job! Education elevates one's status, we want to elevate our
country's status.

 Education should be free, an educated citizen is a productive citizen.

Education should be accessible to everyone. An educated citizen is a more productive citizen

therefore able to pay more taxes (well ideologically speaking since we still refuse to tax high income
earners properly). The cost of college education here in the US has gone up 500% since the 1980s
without offering anything more than it did back then (except for maybe internet access). College
grads are left with huge loans to re-pay often in the hundreds of thousands and the average income
for a new grad nationwide is approximately 35 to 40k. The claim that free education promotes
mediocrity is completely bogus, simply because you have access to free education doesn't mean you
will be able to easily graduate.

 For the betterment of the human race!

The availability of great education is already open source and ready for anyone, with the motivation,
to learn it. The perpetuating view of education as a rare commodity is a downward spiral, not only for
individuals, but also for the nation as a whole. Most people have heard that few things are rights and
are required for survival, for example, water, food and shelter. Education must be added to the list. It
has been quite clear that in recent years the average American is falling behind in science,
engineering and mathematics, allowing the nation itself to fall behind in development and job
creation. Obviously, it is not only a personal endeavor to become educated, being an educated
country is a national interest. The nation has goals of being self-sufficient with most commodities
such as energy, fuel, materials, and the list goes on. How can a nation expect such high
achievements with such an unbelievably selective method of individual success? If education was
viewed as a national interest, and therefore, paid for with public money, a national could support
success of not only its people, but also the nation as a whole.

Education should be free because some parents cant afford it. So if education was free more children
would be in school.It is unfair that only the parents that have money gets to send there child/children
to school every child must be given a chance because some children have the talent but there
parents dont have the money.That is why i think education should be free

Education should be free because some people can have a very good future and they can get many
scholarships but not all of them would pay for school. Another reason why it should be free is
because a lot of the people that do bad things are the ones that had a future but couldn't because
they didn't have enough money.

 Yes, education should be free.

Nearly every country in the developed world, and more and more in the developing world, provide
free primary and secondary education. Such education is generally uncontroversial and accepted as
necessary by both liberals and conservatives around the world. In the case of university education,
however, there is a great deal of disparity between educational policies. In many states students
must pay fees to attend university, for which they may seek student loans or grants.

 We should have free education in the U.S

We live in a system where the rich get the education to get richer. We should provide the education
at a very very low cost essentially making it free to change all this. We should learn from some of the
European countries where college education is free and how much benefit each of these countries are
having from this.

 Of course!

We should all be allowed the access to education. That's a reason why our economy is so bad, no one
has money to repay the debts they had from college. Given the fact that going to community college
first and then college is still cheapest, it doesn't mean that all people can truly afford it. I believe that
it would take a lot more than just handing us a college go to for free to fix our economy but, it may
be a start right?

 Yes, education should be free.

 Everyone should have equal access to education, and the only way to accomplish this in a society
with large economic class diversity is to provide education for free. That way, even the poorest
citizens have the opportunity to pursue their goals and be productive in society. Without free
education, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

humans? What way is more efficient. What do people need more of, pencils, or computers, and is

 Yes it helps

According to Conservatree, one tree makes 8,333 sheets of typical 20 lb. Weight copy paper. If we
assume one newsletter sent to one recipient would consume at least one sheet of paper (that’s being
very conservative), one tree = 8,333 emails.20 million emails/day divided by 8,333 = 2,400 trees
saved every day! Just by sending email instead of paper-based marketing materials.

 Paper doesn't have access to the Internet or World Wide Web.

Paper is great, we have used it for thousands of years and it's served it's purpose. I've read a few
calculations on cost posted above, but none of them had taken into account the amount of
productivity generated by the use of computers. With information at a student's fingertips, think of
how much time this saves over flipping through a book. Sure, some sources on the WWW are
suspect, but so are many textbooks. Paper has become obsolete in the Information Age, it's time to
get with the times.

Positive point about using technology in the classroom is that if teachers see that children are not
doing very well in Scholl he can send them work for out of school and if they are struggling then the
teacher could give the pupil a skype lesson for outside school hours.

 Students who have bad handwriting are at a major disadvantage writing on paper.
 In my school (I guess in every school) teachers have really troubled me for my bad handwriting. I
have tried various styles and only one has looked good (still I do not get appreciated for that). Grades
are given on the basis of that and no doubt I do not get good marks. It has also killed my interest in
making notes. Using computers everyone is on the same level in terms of handwriting and students
get judged on what they write instead of how they write.

I want uniforms in school. The reason why I want uniforms is because they save money. Also, you

 Yes, but there is some question

Without uniforms kids can wear whatever they want, which is all good and well, but there is a lot of
judgement. A lot of kids will pick on others BECAUSE of what they're wearing. Like for girls whose
shirts are cut lower, or if a boy wears those checkered shorts that they seem to love so much. But
with uniforms all of that is taken away because everyone will be wearing the same thing. I know your
first questions will be: "But where's the individuality?" But it can still be there. Kids who roll their
sleeves up or fold their collars differently, or who tuck their shirts in or leave them out. There are a
LOT of factors to keep in mind.
Second, I know you'll say but that's teaching them conformity (that everyone has to be the same),
but really? It's not. It's teaching them respect and to a certain degree discipline. Kids who wear
whatever they want tend to think they can get away with a lot more, because their teachers/school
staff aren't as strict. But by having them wear uniforms and enforcing it you are showing them that
that's not the case.
Third of all, kids don't need to wear whatever they want to be different and individual or to express
themselves. There are other ways. The quality of their schoolwork, drawings, writings, attitude, etc...
The list goes on.
Another thing is that with uniforms there won't be any place for judgement or prejudices based on
appearance, or at least not as much.
Now, a lot of you will probably say that making kids wear uniforms is the same thing as making them
all the same race, religion, sexual orientation, color, have the same hair color/length, no tattoos or
piercings, and more. But really, it's not. Giving kids uniforms only means that there won't be anymore
sagging, or as much skin, and it certainly doesn't mean that everyone will have to be identical. Kids
need individuality. Uniforms just give them a larger margin for it.
Of course a lot of you will say it in fact gives them a SHORTER margin. But again, that's wrong. By
giving them uniforms you are giving them opportunities to express themselves and their individuality
 in other ways.
And uniforms really aren't that ugly either, as I know that's what a lot of people argue. They can
actually be really nice.
Long Beach California implemented uniforms in 1995 and these were the results (tallied recently); the
overall crime rate by students dropped by 91%. There were approximately 90% less school
suspensions. Sex offenses were reduced by 96% (a lot considering). Incidents of vandalism were
reported to have gone down 69%. Assaults in grades K (P) - 8 decreased by 85%.
Norfolk, VA implemented uniforms in 1995 as well, and these were their results; leaving class without
permission dropped by 47%. Throwing objects dropped by 68%. Fighting dropped by 38%.
So you see now why uniforms are the best course of action?

 Yes, students should wear uniforms because bullying is a huge issue!

Students get bullied a lot just for wearing the non-brand clothing. Just because they're not wearing
the latest fashion trend, students feel superior to others and make fun of them for it. It's not right
and it's not fair. Certain parents can't afford nice clothing for their children, and they have to wear
the hand-me-down clothing from older siblings or other family members. Wearing school uniforms
stops students from making fun of students for their clothing, because everybody would be wearing
the same exact thing.

 Less Money Spent On Uniform.

You spend less money on the uniform. Before you say "no you don't! School uniform is expensive!"
Just think about the money you'll spend when you have to buy different clothes just so your child
doesn't wear the same clothes everyday because you know bullying can occur like that. So if you
spent $500 dollars on your child's uniform that they'll wear for the year, and you think that's bad. Just
think about the money you spend altogether on that one year off buying different clothes everyday.

after a long time, but generally they are good.

CONS OF SCHOOL UNIFORMS

1. School Uniforms Stifle Creativity and Individuality
There are many school uniforms pros and cons -- one major argument against
school uniforms often posed by students in the school uniforms debate is that school
uniforms stifle creativity and freedom of expression.
Students may say they have a right to their individual identity and that school
uniforms prevent them from expressing who they are. School is a time when
students are just working out who they are -- it is unfair and unwise to stop students
from expressing who they are at this vital stage by stifling their options in their choice
of clothing. This sends a contradictory message to students when, on one hand,
they're taught to be who they are and not pretend to be someone else while they are
simultaneously being forced to dress exactly the same and to conform to strict
unified standards.

2. School Uniforms Are Too Expensive

Another argument commonly raised by parents in the school uniform debate is how
costly they are. Parents may argue that having to buy expensive school uniforms on
top of regular after school and weekend clothes can become a financial burden on
families, especially those with multiple school-aged children.
School is already expensive enough, with parents having to pay for school
excursions, books, stationary and transport. Adding the cost of often expensive
school uniforms can make balancing the budget very difficult for many families,
especially those from low socioeconomic backgrounds. School uniforms could be
made cheaper, but doing so may affect the quality and comfort of the clothing.
Ultimately, however, the greatest reason school uniforms are expensive is because
they force parents to buy two separate sets of clothes -- this is an inherent problem
for school uniforms in that whenever school uniforms are required, two sets of
wardrobes (doubling the cost) are required.
In conclusion, while many parents acknowledge that there are pros and cons to
having school uniforms, the cost is still just too much for many families.

3. School Uniforms Infringe On Religious Freedom

School uniforms, as argued by religious organizations, may often lead to religious
discrimination. These organizations may claim that, in turn, school uniforms infringe
on a student's religious freedom. Because many faiths have quite specific dress
standards which must be followed, school uniforms mean that many students aren't
able to meet the dress standards of their particular faith. Often, due to the two codes
of dress being contradictory, a student is forced to choose between following the
school's rules and the rules of their faith.
While it may be possible for there to be exceptions to the uniform rules, this can
often create more problems. In fact, these exceptions may be even less equalizing --
for example, Islamic students' school uniforms mean that they are the only ones
wearing something different and this can lead to isolation, bullying and cultural
intolerance.

4. School Uniforms Are Uncomfortable and Impractical

School uniforms are uncomfortable to wear and impractical for learning. This is an
argument raised in the debate against school uniforms by students having to wear
them because the uniform may be made out of uncomfortable material. Students will
claim also that they're better off wearing their own clothes.
School uniforms, for whatever reason, are often made of uncomfortable materials
which students often despise. Therefore, it is reasonable to argue that if school
children were allowed to pick their own clothes, then they would learn better because
they feel more comfortable. The problem seems to be an inherent one -- school
uniforms need to be uncomfortable to keep costs down and achieve the desired look.
Therefore, making a comfortable school uniform simply would not be possible.
When considering school uniform pros and cons, it is vital that the purpose of school
uniforms is discussed. If uniforms don't meet the purpose they were intended for,
then they should be abolished.

5. Dress Codes Are a Practical Alternative to School Uniforms

A practical alternative to school uniforms is instilling dress codes. This means that
the school can continue to enforce dress standards without forcing all students to
wear the exact same thing. This way, the school uniforms debate can be side-
stepped completely. While it is reasonable to want students to meet some minimum
standards of dress, having a compulsory uniform is not necessary to achieve this. By
having an enforceable dress code, it's possible to have the best of both worlds. All of
the arguments against school uniforms simply fall away when you replace it with a
dress code instead.
