[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where did the idea that 3 hours of homework per night is a good thing come from? That sounds dreadful. I sure as hell didn't do that of work when I was a kid in public school, and look at me now -- gainfully employed, successful in the workplace, making good money. [/quote] Homework being a good thing is less about the amount of time it takes and more about the sheer amount of repetition required to learn anything (as proven again, and again, and again by neuroscience and ignored by many education "experts"). Homework should be the amount of work required to get to mastery on material taught - not more, not less.[/quote]
