[quote=Anonymous][quote] 3:45, your assumption that less homework = dumbing down is incorrect. Just take a look at the rote worksheets that are sent home with kids these days, projects that require heavy parent involvement to complete, etc. This is not how future scientists are made.[b] Empirical evidence also shows that homework in the younger years -- with the exception of reading -- yields absolutely no benefit.[/b] [/quote] While there is much debate around whether homework raises standardized test scores in elementary schoolchildren, your statement above is patently wrong.[/quote]
