GROUP DISCUSSION
TOPIC-STRESS in academics
#.Stress is our mind and body’s response or
reaction to a real or imagined threat, event or
change.
#.The way our body and mind react to life
changes Webster’s defines stress as a physical,
emotional factor that causes bodily or mental
tension and that may be a factor in causing
disease.
VIEWS OF OTHER MEMBERS OF THE GROUP:
#.Many students worry about getting a good grade
or simply making time to study if there is more than
one upcoming test.Test stress doesn’t just affect
struggling students, either-high achievers usually
experience a lot of stress about doing well on tests.
#.Whether it’s advanced-level classes or the
amount of studying required,a heavy workload can
be major source of stress for students. This is
especially common for older high school students as
they start making their post-secondary plans.
#.Not getting enough sleep makes it difficult for
students to concentrate and learn effectively.This
can lead to feelings of stress when he or she isn’t
able to perform well in class or on assignments.
#Students experience stress from their parents.For
instance parents push their children to study hard in
order to succeed.This builds stress among the
students.

MY VIEWS ON THE TOPIC:

#.Students suffer from stress because of the
academic pressure whereby they are involved in
tackling very difficult assignment. Also parents and
teachers exert a lot of pressure on student to
perform better. This makes them to work tirelessly
a situation that ends up creating stress. Excessive
levels of academic stress can result in an increased
prevalence of psychological and physical problems
like depression, anxiety, which it turn can affect
their academic results.
