雅思范文欣赏大学生对课外活动态度

Full-time university students need to spend a lot of time on studying, but it is essential to get involved in other activities. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

On college campuses, extracurricular involvement is a key tool to develop the whole student. It is appropriate to say that full-time university students should not only spend a lot of time on studying but also interact with their peers in social activities, thus improving their social skills. While time spent on studying can enhance academic achievement, time spent on getting involved in out-of-the-classroom activities will help students mature socially on the individual student level and the professional level.

The development of the well-rounded individual is a principle goal of extracurricular activities during college years. A variety of personal experiences that these activities provide could positively impact students emotional development. When working together with other individuals, students learn to communicate and gain more self-confidence, autonomy and appreciation for others similarities and differences. Further, by identifying a peer group, that group may influence ones affective and cognitive development as well as ones personal behavior. In addition, taking part in activities outside the classroom enables one, among other things, to learn to negotiate, manage conflict and cooperate with fellow students. And last but not least, almost any type of extracurricular activities may help students understand the importance of critical thinking skills.
