    APATHY ESSAY

    “Many students in schools show a lack of interest and


    motivation in their studies. Discuss the reasons why they are
    academically uninterested.”

    In every school, while there are hardworking students, there are


    also lazy students who are not interested in anything about school.
    They just come to school, sit at the back of the class, talk and
    disturb the others. There may be some reasons for such behavior
    such as family, peer influence and financial problems.

    The most common factor which influences the academic


    performance of students is family. If the parents are interested in
    how their child is doing at school, the student will be more
    interested in his lessons too. Educated parents generally show more
    interest in the academic performance of their children; however,
    this should be a practice common to all families not only to the
    educated ones. When the parents are not interested in the success
    or failure of their children, the child will not care about school or
    lessons, and will perform poorly.

    In schools, the best-known students are the ones who do


    everything except for studying. They seem the coolest students at
    school and everybody admires their reputation. When the parents
    fail to show any interest in their children, they are likely to become
    one of those students who look cool but display no academic
    achievement. Because in these ages teenagers do not understand
    the importance of useful things, they do trivial things which seem
    really important among their peer group. Their only aim is to be well
    known at school and have a group. Studying lessons, then, is not
    one of the ways to become popular at school.

    The most important factor for the lack of interest on part of a


    student is the financial situation of his family. There are some
    students, for example, who think even if they pass the university
    exam, their families will not be able to find the money needed for
    their education. Apart from this, some students have to work after
    school; as a result, they cannot concentrate on their studies. When
    the difficulty of the lessons is added to this list, school becomes a
    nightmare for these students.

    It is possible to rescue these underachieving and academically


    uninterested students from this fate. The parents and the students
    themselves may be warned, or the government can give financial
    aid to these students. Maybe it is very difficult to completely solve
    this problem of student apathy and lack of motivation, but we can
    at least ameliorate it.
