My Homework Project

By: Kevin Palmer

My theory is that homework is beneficial in some situations but
can hurt more than help in other cases. Students can be
overwhelmed by staggering amounts of homework at once.
Schools are not the same everywhere but getting homework
from four classes can put serious stress in the back of a students
mind. The problem is the teachers give a little too much
homework with no regards for students that have plans or task to
do that’s more important. Once they get back to school they
recieve a failing grade when they did not have time to properly
complete it. The solution that I have come to is to have teachers
plan with the other teachers about scheduling what days they
give homework. The second part of the solution is to not give
homework to students that know the unit really well, or to
students that are struggling a lot because they won’t recieve
more help at home.
