Some people think that having these people to give a talk to school students is the best way to tell them about the dangers of committing a crime. Do you agree or disagree? Educating school students on the consequences of carrying out a crime has long been a contentious issue. There is a common belief that talks by exprisoners should be held at school to inform students of the threat to society when a crime is committed. While I accept that this practice is beneficial in a few ways, I believe there are many better methods to educate students about the dangers ofcrimes.
There are certain benefits of having reformed criminals talking to students about the hazards that are 1 crime. The most obvious benefit is that students may learn from those who truly understand about crime. Those who 2 have likely 3 about the dangers of crime for the victims, not only from their own offenses but also from communication with other criminals. In addition, this method may also educate students about the threat to the offenders themselves when they commit a crime. To explain, exprisoners are those who have 4 a long process of 5 and 6 , so their lifestories are often a great source of reallife experience of not only what prisoners are deprived of but also how 7 they feel. However, I am convinced that there are better solutions to teach students about the neg¬ative effects of partaking in criminal activity. The most viable measure may be to introduce 8 as a subject at school. While the lifestories of exprisoners are often biased, criminology knowledge is based on empirical data and research and as such, tends to be more reliable than anecdotal evidence. With this method, students can learn all the necessary knowl¬edge about crime, including the dangers of it, through 9 and therefore have a 10 on crime and the associated dangers. Another useful
measure could be to film the harsh daily lives of prisoners and show it to school students. Notwithstanding the benefits of giving talks, films with vivid imagery can be much more visually attractive and thus more effective in informing students of the harsh reality of life in 11 . To conclude, I am of the opinion that although talks by exprisoners may keep students in¬formed of the dangers of carrying out a crime, there are stronger measures such as the introduc¬tion of criminology as a school subject. 371 words, written by Tu Pham
