[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is in high school has straight As and no homework. All honors and AP classes. I dont know why the schools did away with homework. What do you want my kid to do in their free time? [/quote] I mean theoretically homework is to get in enough practice to master the subject, not to fill free time. But I have a hard, hard time believing you can learn college level (AP) math without homework and The Atlantic just published an article bemoaning the fact that kids going to college no longer know how to read a book over the course of a few weeks for class. So many schools aren't meeting the standard of mastery. At all.[/quote]
