Two faces of social platforms

Social media is a truly amazing human invention. We spent so much time on such a small area that we were forced to explore every aspect of it. Even though the people are liked they are also hated at the same time. These negative aspects are what lead people to act improperly.

WHY CHOOSE STEM?

The senior high school is a bridge for you to prepare in your upcoming college years.In senior high school you can choose a strand that you want. Strand is a track for you to choose in your senior high school years. But why just promote a single strand instead all strand?

In senior high school there's a different strand that has different characteristics. The senior high school is only a preparation for the college and not all strand has a connection to what you’re going to take in college. So instead of promoting just one strand, why not promote all strand because what if the student is undecide of which course they will take in college and because we promoted just one strand the other strand will not stand out and many students will not be aware of the other. In addition, when you are promoting a strand you are essentially comparing other strand, and what will happen is the other strand will not stand out and that will result on just one strand being the number one option even if the course is not aligned in the strand.

I believe that we should not just promote just one strand because each strand has different identity and every student has a right to receive an education.
