Homework is a task assigned by teachers at school to their students. The task must be completed at home. The task becomes a job that must be completed by the students.

Homework becomes very unpopular with the students. This is because homework is perceived by students to have taken their time away from school. Homework is also considered to stress students.

Many of the teachers consider home work is very important given to students. Teachers or teachers consider homework to help students better understand the subject matter. Teachers also assume with the homework the students will learn back at home. But did you know that giving homework too much and too much is not good. Here are some reasons why teachers should not give homework to students.

Homework becomes a burden

It can not be denied that homework becomes a burden for students. With the homework then sisw time to melakuka & nbsp; other things will decrease. Tough home work is also a burden to the mind so students feel the pain.

Science should be lightening not a burden. School should be a stimulus to think students rather than burdening it. If a child loves the subject matter then without any homework he will still learn.

Homework is not effective

Give homework is tantamount to having students re-learn. Actually this is very good but it provides a lot of homework and too often makes students can not do anything else.

Jila a child has spent 7 hours at school to learn a lot of things it is appropriate when he was out of school he learned something else. Direct out of social interaction or from nature. Science is not only in school but also outside school. Giving too much homework is one proof of a teacher who failed to teach in the classroom.

Teachers may be aware that their students are not mastering the material and he also gives many tasks in the hope that the students will learn by themselves. It should be the teacher who should be able to stimulate students' thinking. Not with homework but with a good way of teaching.

Homework sucks

Some students consider homework to be a nuisance. Therefore rarely there are students who are happy when given homework. Because students who do not like to make students are reluctant to learn it.

The teacher should not need to give many tasks or homework to the students. Let them stay focused. Teach them that what they learn in school is very important. Teach them that what is learned in the school is important and all related to the community. So invite your students or children to learn and understand instead of doing homework that does not go forward.

I don't really agree. Homeworks can be good, if the time needed is reasonable.

Completely agree! I am all for projects that need to be done at home, or research to be shared at school - but that's it.

How can parents support or guide their children in school matters if there is no homework?

Parents have their own tasks at their jobs. School is totally for children and their responsibility. Whether they have homework or not. My parents never did anything more than visit school meetings.

I would like to follow my kids very closely. Homeworks consist of a good way for that.

Parents can chat informally about the subjects their children are learning at school. Or even go through their books and check with them what they already know or where do they need help... I agree that mandatory homework can be harmful for children. There are lighter and funnier ways to guide children's formal education.

Study is not about task or home work. We can ask anything to my children about his school what his study without homework. Let them learn all they want not slaved by task.

Here in the Philippines teachers are encouraged to not give homework during weekends (non-school day). So that children can enjoy their weekend school break.

Homework is a good way for parents to keep up on what their child is learning. But it shouldn't be a packet of worksheets the child receives everyday. If it was 1 or 2 worksheets or a reading assignment of a couple of pages that is fine. It does take teachers extra time to grade the homework giving the teacher a little more work to do.

That is right. But learning not about the task and school. If the children play with their friend that is learning too. Learn about life learn about social. That is. 😁

I agree. Actually, if a lesson is well delivered, there should not be a need for homework. Maybe a small preparation for next day, but many schools dedicate an hour for that after lunch and then combine it with another hour of sports and activities. This is a much better option.
