Sample Discussion Text on Health
As we know, the structure of the discussion text consists of (1) introduction, (2) content (several main ideas and reasons or evidence), and (3) conclusion. The example below uses a discussion text model with two points of view, two reasons and evidence, plus one additional point of view to complete the discussion.
The Danger of Covid-19 for the Elderly and Young Generation
introduction
Covid-19 is a disease caused by the coronavirus. The virus can spread quickly through the fluids released by the sufferer, both mucus from the nose and saliva from the mouth. This disease is very dangerous, especially among the elderly.
Main idea
This virus is known to attack the lungs quickly in elderly people. This is due to the vulnerability of the elderly's immune system. When the virus manages to paralyze the lungs, the sufferer has a small chance of being able to recover.
Reasons and Supporting Evidence
This can be seen from the statistics on the number of victims of the WHO. According to data compiled by WHO, 8 out of 10 people who died from this virus were aged 65 years and over. So it can be concluded that COVID-19 is very dangerous, especially for the elderly.
Main Idea Another Point of View
But that does not mean that this virus is not dangerous for young people. In fact, there are some people who are relatively young but do not manage to recover. In New York City, a 15-year-old boy died of complications from Covid-19.
Reasons and Evidence Supporting Other Points
The case was reported in the New York Times newspaper containing the WHO warning about the dangers of the coronavirus to youth. The news states that COVID-19 is also very dangerous for young people, especially those who are known to have a history of illness or have poor health. For example, congenital disease or obesity (overweight).
Another Main Idea (third)
Even if we don't fall into the two categories vulnerable to COVID-19, we must remain vigilant and always follow the government's health protocols to avoid and reduce the transmission rate. If we are strong, it doesn't mean we don't have to be afraid, but we are afraid to pass it on to people who are vulnerable to COVID-19. It could be that that person is the people closest to us, including our parents.
Conclusion
In the end, we all have to be careful and vigilant against covid-19. Does not see the limit of our age, health, or endurance. Together we fight this virus by maintaining distance, maintaining health, maintaining cleanliness and following various other health protocols that the government has set.
Example of a Discussion Text on Education
Advancing Education with the Independent Learning Program
introduction
Freedom to learn is a new idea launched by Mas Minister Nadiem Makarim, who wants to provide freedom of learning for all Indonesian people. This idea provides various reforms that allow various parties to be more flexible in carrying out teaching and learning activities.
Main Idea 1
One of the advantages is how the RPP documents that teachers must prepare can now be completed through only one sheet of documents. Previously, the teacher had to prepare a lesson plan consisting of dozens to tens of sheets before being able to present learning materials to students.
Reasons and Supporting Evidence 1
RPP stands for lesson plan implementation. Through the minister of education and culture regulation number 14 of 2019, the Ministry of Education and Culture has inaugurated the RPP format, which only consists of 1 sheet of documents.
Main Idea 2
On the other hand, student learning and tests were also evaluated. Mas minister wants to replace the National Examination with a Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) and a Character Survey which is considered fairer in determining whether or not a student has graduated from school.
Reasons and Supporting Evidence 2
AKM is done by assessing students' literacy and numeracy abilities. "Literacy is the ability to analyze reading and understand the concepts behind the writing," said Mas Minister Nadiem at an event at the Bidakara Hotel, Jakarta, Wednesday (11/12/2019). "While numeration is the ability to analyze data through numbers," he continued.
Main Idea 3 Viewpoint
Meanwhile, at the higher education level, independent learning gives students the freedom to study according to their needs. Mas Minister allows students to spend 1-2 full semesters studying off-campus. The method can be directly involved in the field, namely internships or temporary work in companies related to education on campus. Another way is to study at another campus as a comparative study.
Conclusion
The independent learning program is a program that is able to liberate our education in a better direction than before. This program can also be said to be one of the most innovative programs ever compiled by the Ministry of Education and Culture. As educational participants, we should welcome it with careful preparation and follow it with all our heart to participate in its success.
Example of a Discussion Text about Free Association
Dangers of Promiscuity
introduction
Free association is a topic that is always discussed from time to time. How not, promiscuity can negatively impact the growth and development of student's character, attitudes, and morals. But on the other hand, the association is an important part of human beings as social beings.
Main Idea 1
If not controlled, promiscuity can have a negative impact on students, especially teenagers. If we trust a stranger too easily, he may actually have bad intentions towards us. This bad intention can be done openly, or even the most dangerous is by stealth.
Reasons and Supporting Evidence 1
However, this could also be done accidentally by parties who have a bad influence on victims of promiscuity. The evidence is that there has been a murder case against Nurhikmah, a resident of Cerih Village, Jatinegara District, Tegal Regency, Central Java, which was reported by detik news on Thursday, August 15, 2019. After an investigation was carried out, the cause was promiscuity among teenagers, which caused them to rarely go home, drink alcohol, and end up having disagreements. Understand drunk.
Main Idea 2
Meanwhile, always staying open and welcoming anyone well is something to do anyway. Control or restriction is what must be done. We just want to be friends with anyone but don't want to get involved in the slightest with people who provide invitations and bad influences on us. Intercourse, if done with good control, will have a tremendous effect back as well.
Reasons and Supporting Evidence 2
One of them is an increase in learning motivation that can be generated from healthy peer relationships. In their research on the effect of peer association on learning motivation, Fitria, Rosra, and Mayasari (2017) revealed that based on the results of data analysis carried out, there was a significant influence between peer association on peer association learning motivation.
Conclusion
The conclusion can be ascertained that promiscuity can have a negative impact on students. These influences include rarely going home, hanging out too freely, drinking alcohol, even drugs. Meanwhile, good positive relationships can actually provide motivation to learn. Control is the main tool that must be done in socializing.
