[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think part of the problem is that kids no longer have to manage their time beginning in elementary school like they used to. Homework is gone and has been eliminated through middle school. If it is given, then time is given at the end of class. This even happens in 9th and sometimes, 10th grade classes. All kids now have a dedicated study hall unlike years ago when college-bound students typically did not. And by the time they get to junior and senior years, they must be taking 12+ AP classes or forget about a shot at their state flagship. Talk about 0-60 in seconds. [/quote] Agree, but on the flip side to this the kids aren't getting enough practice, especially in math and other areas in terms of doing the actual problems, which really hurts them academically. Kids don't even read novels anymore. [/quote]
