Rhetorical Analysis Of Working Students By Laurence Steinberg

Who is a full time student at the University of Louisville while working the night shift for UPS. This is a program that allows her to go to school for free as long as she works this shift for UPS. As school went on McLin started having troubles staying awake for her full shift and staying awake for her lectures and classes later in the day. The Journal of Nature and Science of Sleep conducted a study on students who worked while in college. They found that if students are sleep deprived it can lead to grades dropping as much as two letter grades, lower grade point averages, and lower test

Adolescence can be a challenging period of time for many students because they have to take more responsibilities, be more mature, set their future goals and increasingly concentrate on their studies. However, there are quite a few students who choose to have a part-time job, regardless of the obstacles like having more things to handle and the difficulties to find a job. Teenagers want to work for a variety of reasons. For example, they may want to provide a constructive use of their free time, work for the money to buy things they want and spend the money on their preferences, or even work because they want to build up their confidence, have some fun and make new friends. Nevertheless, some people say that students should not have a part-time

When Steinway goes to explain that he does not oppose workers fighting for their rights, I do believe him. In the document, it states many views that he had about the workers. He believes that’s the workers do not have the appropriate housing, good education, or the skills needed for the work force. In the testimony, he explains under the subtitle, The horrors of the Tenement House System, just how bad the housing was for the working families, one room to share; having one or even two families, where they would do all the cooking, washing, etc… Another idea that he brings up is the apprentice law, which would teach the workers, how to do the job, and the skills needed. Steinway agrees with the labor unions but, he thinks that in order to have

There isn’t much time for social area of their life such as interacting with friends, family, personal interest or they cannot stay focused as one is tired and starting to feel sleepy and they do not even have time to rest at all. To balance work with classes can cause a lot of problems for part-time students, no consultation time after the lecture to ask questions if a student does not understand the content, hard time to complete their homework, submit assignments very late, poor school performance which may result in poor grade at the end of the year. The number of part-time students dropped out or that are still struggling to finish is increasing day-by-day, because they face unique challenges that make it difficult for them to complete their

Academic obligations are not the only responsibilities for American high school students. One of the responsibilities that many students have is a job. The unemployment rate for teenagers is a mere 9.1 percent. The reasons why students work wildly vary. For some, it’s to earn

First of all, students who work more than 20 hours a week while in school are very likely to suffer when it comes to their academic achievements. A research done in California and Wisconsin states "students who increased their weekly

The purpose of this study was to examine if student employment only negatively affects GPA when the student works a certain amount of hours. Researchers also wanted to determine if work and school contributes to low social time and higher job-stress. Finally, the researchers attempted to find out if high-achieving students who are employed are more organized and attentive to their school work. Results indicated that working student’s either have the same or even slightly higher GPA’s than non-working students. Student’s who work between 10-19 hours a week saw a benefit to their GPA, while those who worked 20 or more hours and those working less than 10 hours were more likely to have lower a GPA’s than those working 10-19 hours per week.The

In 2000, it was reported that 9 percent of full-time students worked 35 or more hours each week, 22 percent worked 20 – 34 hours each week, and 20 percent worked less than 20 hours each week. In 2014, full-time students reported working less hours each week (7 percent worked 35 or more hours, 18 percent worked 20 – 34 hours, and 16 percent worked less than 20 hours each week). In 2000, 47 percent of part-time students reported that they worked 35 or more hours each week, 27 percent worked 20 – 34 hours each week, and 9 percent worked less than 20 hours each week. In 2014, less part-time students reported working more than 20 hours each week (only 7 percent worked 35 or more hours, and 18 percent worked 20 – 34 hours). However, the number of part-time students working less than 20 hours each week increased to 14 percent (Characteristics of Postsecondary Students, 2016). Overall, both sets of students have followed a trend of working less hours while earning their degree than they were nearly two decades

Many publications claim students who work for pay for a certain number of hours while attending university perform better than other students who either do not work at all, or work more than the threshold number of hours, various estimates of which are discussed in this review. Once differences between and within various student demographics are considered, however, such generalization begins to lose validity, once research sorts for differences between and within classes of students, definitions of performance, and various types and levels of employment. Significant differences confound generalizing from existing samples to the total population, government and peer-reviewed academic research reveals. Likewise, past student work-study

I, being employed with a part-time job, truly do believe that there is no wrong in having a part-time job while being a student. I honestly think that it is an awesome, great idea for students to have part-time jobs before they graduate from high school -- if they have the time and resources to do so. Students who are responsible, or learn responsibility, have nothing to loose but all to gain by having a job. There are a few key points that prove students having part-time jobs is an awesome concept which I am going to point out.

The fifth effect can reduce stress, to which is a bigger factor to full-time college students who work part-time. Income difference, paying off debt, picking up fewer hours, time management are all stressful consequences that can be reduced in a change in policy. Both personal and academic performances can be a positive outcome as well if both Ohio Student and State minimum wage matched up and the policy took effect. It may sound like a reaching concern, but ask any working college student and they would not contest such matter. According to Stanford University sleep study, the average sleep requirement for college students is well over eight hours, and the majority of students would fall within the range of this value plus or minus one hour. If this amount is not obtained, a sleep debt is created, thus stress level begins to increase (William. Dement, 1997).

We all think that once we can get a car then we can get a job. Once we have a job, then we buy what we want that our parents will not buy for us or you want to help your family because there is barely enough to eat. Even though the later case maybe a necessity, the first case is not and may lead to further issues with school. According to Marchetti, Wilson and Dunham, working part time has a negative effect on school achievement, as an increase in working hours leads to a decrease in standardized scores and grades. (6) “The negative effects of working seemed to be buffered somewhat when students work to save

However, most of the USA schools support students to work part-time. They are willing to inspire their students to enter society. In conclusion, both parents and teachers in China and America have different answers base on the problems that whether working part-time will district students’ concentration.

On the other hand, the part-times work intensity do not allow part-time job student have too many time to study. “Twenty years ago, evidence of negative associations between work intensity, especially working more than 20 hours per work, and school performance/ engagement began to emerge.”(Greenberger & Steinberg, 1986; Steinberg & Dornbush, 1991. P 554). According a report by Smith and Taylor (2000. P.543) “almost 50% students have part time job and the hour that part time students spend per week is 14.2 hours. And it had been justified that working fewer hour is not necessarily beneficial for students, furthermore, it is detrimental to student’s health. There is no significant different between gender and working hours for part time students, however, a apparently different for part time adolescent employer is that the number of students who living at home and those living away from home.” The reason is that those students who living at home have a stable environment to working a long-term part time job during study, while, those students who living away from home might feel it is struggle to get and maintain a job during university terms. Still, there is a reason to believe that working part time job can harmful in student’ daily routing, school life and

Students are working hard, a new study finds, taking on part-time and even sometimes full-time jobs to avoid racking up more debt while in school. They have different perception and prioritization when it comes to Education and also to Employment. More likely, it deals to a diverse of activities in school and workplace. The perception that set in his/her mind is highly centralized and the prioritization given
