Argumentative Text : Information Regarding Timely Teaching and Learning Activities

  Thesis On Wednesday morning, March 14th, 2024, heavy rainfall prompted the school to transition to online learning. Persistent rain over several days resulted in flooding across the Semarang area, leading to the closure of numerous roadways. For instance, access to SMKN 4 Semarang was restricted due to flooding. The sudden shift to online learning caught many students off guard.

This inconvenience forced students to navigate their way back home amidst the floodwaters. Argument 2 Timely and responsive communication is essential for effective teaching and learning activities. Sudden announcements frustrate students as they receive information too late. If notifications were prompt and not sudden, students could a...
