Some teachers say students should be organised into groups to study. Others argue students should be made to study alone. Tell the benefits of each study method. Which one do you think is more effective?

Intro: Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Paragraph 1: Advantages of studying alone:

1.     No distractions. So students can focus on study

2.     Increased independence – cultivates the ability to solve problems

3.     Students become competitive which is deemed as a necessary quality.

Paragraph 2: Advantages of studying alone:

1.     Discussing and debating becomes possible. Students’ knowledge complements each other. So time and energy is saved.

2.     Sense of co-operation is cultivated which is a necessary virtue.

3.     Communication skills develop.

Paragraph 3: Your opinion. Individual choice. Depends on situation. Depends on subject. Boring subjects like history are better studied in groups and subjects like maths which require concentration are better studied alone

Conclusion:
