[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No homework is the consequence of the American society's collective decision to low-pay public school teachers. Preparing and grading homework, writing recommendation letters, among other tasks, take outside teacher contract hours. With the already abysmal compensation, what do we expect from our teachers?[/quote] I'd argue the bigger problem is all the administrative headache of covering Gatehouse's rear end on things like documenting IEPs and doing pointless training. Less of that would make more time for preparing and grading homework. Having a more set curriculum where homework was provided in a textbook/workbook would help to - no preparation then, just grading. For drilling math concepts it should be stupid easy to grab worksheets as provided by a curriculum then grade them against an answer key.[/quote]
