Thirteenth discussion

Topic: We must introduce rental system of textbooks instead of free of charge.

Moderator: Ashley

[Agree side]
Sophie: Some students can't go to school because of money. If we introduce the system, more children will be able to go to school.

Sara: The cost of textbooks is so big. Some students forget textbooks at home, but if school lend textbooks, they don't have to worry about it.


[Disagree side]
Lucy: If we introduce rental system of textbooks, students can't write anything on the textbooks. And if they can't bring them in their home, they can't study at home.

Emily: I write notes on the textbooks. So, if the system is introduced, students can't write anythin on the textbooks.

Isabera: If the system is introduced, students can't take a note. And new textbooks make me study hard.


[Questions]
Moderator: What do you think about the cost of textbooks?
Sophie: We have to pay the money every year, so it costs much money. But, if we introduce the system, we will pay only once. We can save much money by introducing the system.
Emily: I want to pay the money for my children.

Sara: Writing notes is important for study. So, they they should write the notes on the notebooks.

Isabela: How are students given the rental textbooks?
Sophie: In elementary school, teachers give the textbooks in the beginning of the classes. After the classes finished, teachers have to collect them.


[Conclusion]
We will introduce the trial period of the rental textbooks for only elementary school.


[My comment]
When we introduce the system, Apollon will be able to save much money. However, it is difficult to take notes on the notebooks considering some subjects. I think it is important to draw lines on the textbooks. So, I disagree with the system. This group could reach the conclusion, but disagree side's memebers should have stuck to their opinions without compromising.
