ASP (4/23)

We discussed the following topics in the class:
" What is a good discussion and what is a bad discussion."
" Japan should start teaching English (language) from the beginning of elementary school every day."
" The age of consent/adulthood should be 18 (or other age) in Japan."


The most difficult topic for me is the third one. Our group thought that 20 is ok and I think so because we do not know about society just after high school graduaion. If I work after high school graduation, however, I might not think so. It is strange that I work and pay tax but I can not vote. There are many different type of people in Japan. We can not accept all ideas but we must think constantly that what is the best. In the class, I think we can discuss the first and second topics somewhat, but we can not do the third one. The topic is very difficult to judge and very important for us.
