Do Students Have Too Much Homework?
This collection of essays will get your students revved up, about homework. Debates between the essays include whether college students study less now than in the past, whether the family unit is strained from too much homework, whether life lessons are more important than school lessons, and whether increased homework correlates to improved performance. A discussion of selected global homework practices is also included.
