Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

No, i do not think that Shakespeare's work should be studied in high school especially in Texas because it is difficult and somewhat challenging and really does not determine if we graduate or not. There are other difficult things we need to kno or do such as pass TAKS, other tests, and jus graduating because we work so hard not for shakespeare but for the TAKS because if we dont pass we wont graduate.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

To me i dont think so, because it realy hasn't influenced my life.And thats wat i am here at school for, to learn thing that are going to help me out in the long run.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

I think that shakespeare should not be studied in high school, because it really has nothing to do with english or any other subject. The only thing that shakespeare does is make students work harder to pronounce words in the story that are incorrect anyway.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: yes

Pronunciation is a big part of the English language and so grammar. What Shakespeare’s work teaches your pronunciation and what proper grammar looks like. His work also teaches you how to think out side of your own box and at a harder level so you are better prepared for college and or a conversation with some one.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: yes

okay well first of all shakespear is literature and literature is a part of english 4. second the words are correct thats just how they talked back then. The way most people talk today is incorrect because they are to lazy to just say the whole word. Just say for sure and not fo sho. seriously!
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: yes

It does have to do with english. The words aren't incorrect, they actually took the time in this time period to speak properly and they weren't lazy.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

Shakespeare's work has amazed critics around the world, but some students say his work should not be continued to be taught in high school. I really do like his work, but I feel like the difficulty of reading his books ,such as MacBeth, is too far, to some.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

i think shakespear has done good work, but should not be pushed on students to read. i think it should be left to choice. if students whant to read his work by all means go for it but if you dont whant to dont.
Debate: Should Shakespeare's works continue to be studied at the high school level?
Side: No

Shakespeare is the most boring story I ever reed before, It just go on and on about nothing. I say they shouldn't make us read it all over again.Because most people don't understand it no way.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Many people may argue yes, because they find their classes to be dull, and want an alternative to the droning noise of their teachers voice. I don't take such a cynical stance of class, but actually believe that listening to music can help certain individuals to concentrate and work more efficiently - for example, when revising, I find low volume music can help me to work faster and, actually, better. Whenever a teacher allows music in class, I work much better than without it - people are going to concentrate more on their work than speaking to classmates, and get more work done.Of course, I cannot argue that students be allowed to just come into a lesson and start listening to music immediately - first, the teacher must be allowed to do their job (teach the lessons content), and set tasks - but proceeding this, I see no possible harm that can be caused. As soon as a task has been set, students, in my opinion, should be allowed to listen to music (at a suitable noise level, of course).
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Thank you .. and i hope that the music be able in the school :)
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

Your right, in some cases music can be calming and relaxing, it can relieve stress and sometimes even calm the nerves.But in a class, full of working students, music is not acceptable. (Unless of course it is learning a song for school purposes- National Anthem etc).
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

I don't think music is distracting. And if it is, then it is the students choice to keep listening to the music instead of just taking their earbuds out. If the student knows that the music distracts him/her then they shouldn't listen to it while working but they still might. This is purely their choice. Students just as easily could be distracted by something else. And if a student doesn't want to pay attention in class or learn that is also their choice. Nobody can force them (they can try but I'm betting they would fail).
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Of course they should. For some students, music helps them think as they do their work, it can also make them get the work done quicker as they have less distractions (ie: talking to friends). However I'll just point out that the only time I would deem this unacceptable is when the teacher is talking to the class and teaching something. The obvious thing is to stop listening to the music and listen to what the teacher is teaching you. For other things, I feel it is completely okay to listen to music in class, as long as the work is getting done.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

For one it is a huge distraction. Imagine a child being in the middle of a test with a loud testy beat booming in their ears. The poor child would hardly be able to concentrate on the test, let alone keep focused on the given task.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

yes , but in free classes only . That will make us feel better . And I like music so much .
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?

Do you think that the parents and teachers of the students would appreciate this new allowance? Chances are, no they would not appreciate their children/students listening to music in class.

Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

good idea but I need more :D because i can't without music and if I didn't listen in the class .. i become singer :P
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

It should be fine for study sessions or independent work as long as the student has good earbuds that nobody else can hear and be distracted by.Not for tests though. How long would it be before somebody puts the answers on their player and skip studying for the test?
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

A few points I should mention: Kids should NOT be allowed phones because that would cause more problems with txting and cheating. However, music is different. Music can relax those with nerves during an exam or just provide entertainment while you sludge though all that math. Some wouldn't WANT to listen to music because it may be a distraction to some but I don't think we should not allow something because a few are against it.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

I think we should listen to music in school, just not during class. Just before school, after school, recess and lunch.music can help students concentrate calm down and it reduces the background noise.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

The parents would be angry that their child's education is being interrupted under the infulence of music.And what about the teachers, think about what a heard time they would have trying to teach their students and get them to focus on their work...
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

yes i like listen music in the class , but not all classes only in the bored classes
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

and who's going to decide what boring classes are? most people hate science and maths and all the other important subjects.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Listening to music for a while during classes can be helpful for students, for it's power of adjusting mood and refreshing mind and for it is a couse of relaxation after a tough exam or a defficult subject that should help students to be positively active and concentrated :).

students need to study in class. and teachers need to teach. i don't think a kid would listen to what the teacher is teaching when he is listening to heavy metal in class.

Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Music can also help with your creativity in classes such as English or Art. (me and my friends are all writers and artists. Music is our muse so why can't it be to others?)
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

some students prefer listening to music as they study, but while learning, i disagree that a student can listen to music and concentrate on chemical problems. it has to be either one of them. i agree that music could be allowed in a few classes, maybe during gym, or art, but during classes that require full attention, i think music would only be a distraction.

“Listening to Music Helps Students Be More Productive in The Classroom.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

Yes.*
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

It has been scientifically proven that students perform better with music on. Of course, let the teacher set the tasks and teach, etc. but once the students get to work, I think they should definitely be allowed to listen to music. It helps people concentrate more, and teachers are always asking for a silent classroom, and if students are listening to music, you would be able to hear a pin drop!
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

I think that listening to music in the classroom through lessons would help students relax so that they can be more productive .I don't think that listening to music in the classroom will confuse or bother students because there are many types of music and the intended type here is the quiet one, which doesn't make the student annoyed or disturbed.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

I'm pretty sure someone was drunk when they made this because the obvious answer is yes
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

Yes. Everyone on the site is drunk at any given time.*
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Yes, they should. There are schools banning the use of earphones for anything. I think that if it is silent work, such as writing documents on the computer, students should be able to listen to any music they like using Pandora or anything similar.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Yes! That is what my teachers do and it makes all of us more focused. If we didn't have anything then our minds would just be wondering around completely not focused on the very boring essay.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

Yes. Is it that or all of those crack drugs they give kids now to "focus"...

Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?

Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

That is true, many people would agree that music can certainly generate productivity and a good state of mind - but, you can't ignore the fact that this would only work if every person in the class with content with the choice of music! I think the main problem is making everyone satisfied and as teachers, the reaction of the people decides whether it is appropriate to them. Personally, I would like to have music on in the classroom because it can create a less tense/ hushed atmosphere.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

This is up to your prospective. If I was the student I would be ecstatic at this idea. However, on the teachers side, it would be pestered by this vexing activity in the classroom. On the students side I can find arguments supporting this detail, 2 against it. I will first and foremost start with the points supporting music in the classroom from the students prospective. Firstly, music helps you concentrate. Each individual taste for music means that they won't get annoyed by what song is playing and diverge from school work or listening to the teacher just to change the song. Secondly, it would exit you for school. Most students will get up in the morning with a sense of, 'Dang it, school...", or somewhere along those lines. However, with music it could be more like,"Yeah, I know what I'm going to listen to in science!"  That point brings me to the downfall of having music in a classroom from a students prospective. Firstly, to a student working hard in school to achieve something great, such as strait A's, these would be annoying having them working on there working listening to their teacher while everyone else in zoning-out. Lastly, (the last point on the students behalf) it may be hard to hear the teacher. Now I realize this is a weak point, and I realize it could be easily fixed by having a volume that you have to be at. However, it is a fair point in this argument considering this whole debate could be over by just asking your theater for permission for you, and/or your classmates.  Now I will talk on behalf of the teachers. I have, for the teacher, come up with 2 upsides and 2 downsides. Firstly, on the upside, students will be more engaged on you depending on the student. For brilliant students who like to talk to their friends, it would pull their attention away from their friends, and, hopefully, back on you, helping them succeed. Secondly, they may learn something about music, like how it is structured, and what instruments are used in what songs (the more knowledge the better ;).) Now to the downsides, if I were a teacher, of music in class. First of all, most students don't listen to classical or music that is scientifically proven to help students learn, they mostly listen to modern music which can easily diverge them to dancing or singing catchy melodies as modern songs often do. Finally, there could be stolen mp3's or iPod's causing fights and overall, total chaos.  In conclusion, I believe that music should be listened to in classrooms with caution, however only do it with your teacher, and fellow classmates, approval.  (Thank You For Reading This Lengthy Argument!)
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Music has been proven to stimulate the brain so FUCK YES. I think I would be a totally fascinating combination lml
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Music has a positive effect on the brain. By allowing students to listen to music in class, they are likely to be less bored and more productive. Obviously, don't let them listen to music WHILE the teacher is speaking; only while the teacher is not talking. It CAN be a distraction if abused, but with proper moderation it can turn out to be a great success.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

I think so, but only during work time. I'm in high school and my teachers all let us listen to music when they aren't talking. By listening to music, that makes kids not talk to each other, resulting in a better learning environment. It will make kids more focused, too. With having something that you like and that is familiar to you, it makes that class seem a little bit easier and takes some stress off of your back.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?

I'm in high school and my teachers all let us listen to music when they aren't talking. By listening to music, that makes kids not talk to each otherThis actually sounds like a possible legit methodology.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Absolutely, I am a student and music helps me focus. As long as everyone has headphones or ear buds, I think it is a great idea!
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

I think music is basically like its own language.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

It depends. There are some people who couldn't focus while listening to music... Though, hey, it's your grades!
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Children should listen to music because students say they work better listening to music also did you know that if you listen to your favorite songs it boosts your mental focus but if you listen to unknown music your brain slows down and you perform less in class.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Yes but only if it's high quality, nutrient dense rap music.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

Recent studies proved that people produce effectively and happily when they listen to music. I myself like this idea. However, the case of getting students to listen to music IN THE CLASSROOM is completely irrelevant. Students should be busy all the time listening to the teacher, listening to each other or even speaking to each other. Therefore, it is illogical to allow students listen to music DURING CLASSES.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

sir.. if the students was very bored ... what is the problem if they refresh their mind ?
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Students would only be able to listen to music during work time. I don't understand why everyone thinks that it would be the entire class, even when the teacher is talking. At my school, we are only allowed to have one earbud in so then if the teacher has an announcement we can hear it. It works, too.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Listening to music in class has really helped me focus more and actually understand what I'm learning about. Due to the fact that classrooms tend to get extremely noisy and busy, listening to music (with earphones/headphones) can create a peaceful atmosphere, something that all students need. In addition, the reason students talk to other students in class is because they are bored, but with music, that boredom is reduced, so students pay more attention to their work. And with most people listening to music, there is also a peaceful atmosphere for the teacher. Also, teachers are more like a guide in my class, not an instructor. So we are more independent and are able to use are creativity and study in ways that are effective for us, because everyone is different. This way of teaching is extremely useful.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: Yes

Studies don't prove anything. They provide evidence that supports or doesn't support a hypothesis. I've done a lot of research in this area, and how people respond to music depends on a lot of things such as a degree of extroversion, familiarity of the music, volume of the music, the type of task being performed while listening to music, emotional state, whether or not the music has lyrics, how fast the music things, and that is just the tip of the iceberg. And I'm not sure why you say it is illogical for students to listen to music in class. Sometimes students have to work on something independently. Take for example a free writing assignment. Sometimes, students will instructed to respond to a prompt and write for 25-30 minutes. During this time they will not be talking to one another, nor will the teacher be talking. So it's not illogical in the least.
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

I think that if listening to music helps someone while they're taking a test or studying than they should do it. But if someone gets distracted by it than they shouldn't. If music was allowed during school some students could do a lot better. And it wouldn't distract others if they have head phones on. Just like gum, it is not allowed in some schools but people haves said that it can help someone do better on an exam. It could be allowed only during tests and it would help.

Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?

If you listen to music , you will come out of the class humming the music instead of thinking about what you have seen in the lesson because all the senses work together

did you try to listen before ?... or just give an opinion
Debate: Should students be able to listen to music in class?
Side: No

it is possible for some specific students to listen to music while doing a free assignment. but while in school when the teacher is teaching, i think it would help to concentrate only on the teachers voice instead of eminem, or avril or whoever you listen to. also that is one reason why the teachers constantly try and ask you to stop blabbering with your friends. because you need to listen to what they have to say.
