With the rise in interest in art fields, like painting and drawing, some say that art classes ought to be mandatory in high school. While this trend offers several benefits for fostering creativity, I strongly contend that its disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
Without a doubt, art classes can provide considerable opportunities for improving creativity. By implementing art classes like drawing and paint in high schools, students tend to participate in these classes daily, thereby developing a passionate in learning about details of this field. As a result, they may face complex topics in this field and challenge themselves to deal with these difficulties, which ultimately increases their creativity. This demonstrates, in addition, how artists popular become icons from ordinary people.
However, from my perspective, compulsory art classes can undermine time efficiency. If Governments implement art classes as mandatory subject, students must attend in these lessons, which make it difficult for them to allocate their valuable time to their own priorities. Consequently, they may struggle to meet deadlines and complete assignments in their own fields like science and math, diminishing their academic potential and progress, all of which may undermine long-term academic achievements. In a world where many students struggle with eliminating time-consuming processes, these classes reverse this trend. A case in point is Uzbekistan, where the government has implemented this plan for two years; as a consequence, the creativity rate has increased considerably among schoolchildren.
In conclusion, while implementing art classes in high school can bring considerable merits in terms of creativity, I firmly believe that it does more harm than good by undermining time efficiency.
