Alonso (2011) the article “Students to employee” writes about becoming students to
workers. Alonso(2011) writes about the differences between school and work and transition
in the working world.
The school requests permanent memorization of teaching materials. It is one of the standard
education systems. Most pupils learn according to the principle: homework, classwork, tests,
and exam. This system does not provide opportunities for the development of important
skills. Alonso(2011) writes about important points for future company staff: teamwork and
analytical thinking. Also, writer Lewis discusses school study and work processes. About
their differences. For instance, at school people study according to the learning to
memorize, while at work people try to act quickly. Alonso(2011) gives an example of Ryan
who is moving from the study field to the world of the labor market.
The first aspect is analytical thinking, Alonso(2011) suggests this is a student's problem,
because during the study students had not the opportunity to analytically think, and it is
necessary for the working process. I agree with the author because analytical thinking will
help students in the company. Analytical thinking is a significant plus for each student.
Moreover, such kind of skill can be utilized by students in their future business as well as can
help them significantly in their carrier.
The second aspect is teamwork. The author writes about teamwork being a large difficulty. I
absolutely disagree, I think students and employees who collaborate with others, succeed
more and quicker. Despite, it is not being easy, students try to manage this Work in a group
allows people to complete a task more quickly. Because each member of the group knows
their responsibilities and tries to fulfill them. Also, teamwork is useful, because, if someone
can not solve a problem another can help, and they will solve it together, According to
Everard and Morris (1990), “Group and team are not the same”. Teamwork includes listening
to other teammates, Working as a whole for the benefit of the community. Effective
collaboration is one where the particular talents and skills of everyone help the team
accomplish a common mission most productively. In the modern world collaborating is
needed in every company
In conclusion, future employees will be useful to develop their knowledge and skills for the
future professional job. Their qualification will open opportunities for them and they will be in
demand.
