[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]homework is also often only 10% of the grade - and its not looked it, only checked as "completed"[/quote]

But if kids don't do it, how can they do well in the other 90% of the class? And when is their time in a 45 minute class for start homework? That isn't a lot of time to go over last night's homework, introduce and develop a new concept, and practice it.[/quote]

You're absolutely correct. Homework is no longer a part of the learning process. They DO sometimes go over it in class, if it is Math etc. and that's where, if there is time, the teacher will re-explain a concept if everyone has got particularly answers wrong, etc.[/quote]

It varies by the teacher, our last year's math teacher was great and gave some homework but they really needed more to master the concepts.  Having a book in pre-calc. was helpful.  Teachers don't know if they kids need a concept re-explained if they don't have homework.  Test scores are down.. this new teaching style is not working.[/quote]
