Student Loans - Are They A Problem?





Image result for banner gif

My podcast, titled "Problems" discussed the topic of student loans. I focus on some of the positive aspects of them as well as the negative aspects.  It's important to keep both of these types of aspects in mind which is the message I'd like to get across here.  I think it's also important to acknowledge how student loans change peoples' views of college or universities.  It may instill fear, which I don't believe is the initial goal.  Schools obviously want people to apply to them, but if money becomes too big of an issue it may result in fewer applicants.  More of this is discussed in my podcast linked below.  






A Little About Myself
Hi! I'm Ola. I am 15 years old and I enjoy the typical things a fifteen-year-old enjoys.  I often hang out with friends and family, stress over school, and make fun of my sister.  Being 15 speaking about this topic, I think it'll open up a door to a different mindset about student loans.  My goal with this podcast is to simply make people aware of how things are on the topic of loans, and how they are changing.

Episode 67 - From The Ground Up

Is Homework Truly Beneficial? School is already a full-time job for kids, having the additional burden of doing homework can overload a student with stress. The struggle of balancing homework along with other extracurricular activities cause students to become sleep deprived, unable to function properly the next day at school. Homework is also difficult to enforce because most students could not care any less and nor can any parent or teacher inspire a student to become motivated in doing their homework. Students also still have the opportunity to be able to maintain an adequate grade with or without doing their homework. When it comes to homework or any other form of learning, quality is much more important than quantity. In this podcast episode, a student from BMS and a parent-teacher dive deep into the controversy that surrounds homework.
