[quote=Anonymous][b][/b][quote=Anonymous]Any system that requires 3-4 hrs of homework per night needs to be fixed. I plan to limit the number of AP classes my kids take because I don't think kids should spend 3-4 hrs per day on homework after spending 6.5 hours in school. I see this as a race to nowhere. I hope at some point the school system will figure this out and cut back on the expected homework. I think sometimes teachers look at the homework they assign in isolation without considering what all the other teachers are also expecting.[/quote] :roll: AP and IB courses are supposed to be COLLEGE level courses ... I can't think of any college course where I didn't do outside reading/studying. I have found in ten years of teaching, that when kids are spending that much time on homework, it is because they either are a) on social media or b) procrastinated and doing everything at the last minute. Students are pretty open about this.[/quote]
