Some people think that literature and history classes are more crucial than math and science to students. However, I have a different idea of it. First of all, it is more practical in everyday life. Secondly, it can allow students to increase logical ability to solve a problem.
To begin with, For example, advances in science and mathematics have brought many benefits to people, such as the extension of lifespan, the extent of disease that can be treated, and long distance travel that has been made easy by the development of transportation facilities. Moreover, as the demand for new fields based on theories of science and mathematics, such as computers, it is also necessary to have specialized knowledge and skills that can not be replaced by literature and history lessons. Hence, students have to concentrate on science and math in order to their job and the future society. On the other hand, the wisdom of the past day which provided by studying literature and history could not offer proper information to the student who living changed today.
On top of that, the students can increase their problem-solving ability when they study math and science. With the several science experiment and process of math problem-solving logically, they can find the more creative way to handle their tasks. For instance, according to subject-preferences research by the University of Maryland, the student who has more interested in science and math than other subjects showed the higher score at logical ability test, also had tended to exchange own's opinions actively and listening other's idea too. This tendency can help people to find a solution in a various way, so they can resolve a task more effectively. Therefore, science and math class is good methods to students develop their problem-solving capabilities.
To sum up, I strongly believe that math and science lessons can provide students with useful knowledge in everyday which could not be offered by other subjects such as literature and history, also increase logical capability.
In this regard, I agree that science and math class is more important than literature and history lessons.
