A student goes to his room to complete a homework assignment assigned by his math teacher. But when he begins to dig through his backpack to find this homework assignment, he finds the other assignment from his math teacher and the other four assignments he had also forgotten about. The student is immediately overcome with a surge of anger due to stress and never seeing an ending to the long tunnel of homework. Just then his father walks in and the child snaps at him. Excessive amounts of homework can create an extreme level of stress. Overflowing amounts of homework can have many negative effects.
A lot of the time, homework will cause huge amounts of stress. Sometimes, a family can organize and plan for weeks to go on a fun family vacation …show more content…
Assigned work past school hours itself can be presented as an extremely large antagonist of a student’s stress. The very torture device in itself is an extremely outdated way of teaching (if it can be called that) a student the things that they would learn better from a good classroom environment and a good teacher to work with. Homework really got its definition that we know of today, just after the soviet union launched the first manned spacecraft named Sputnik, into global orbit on october 4, 1957. America was already in the middle of the red scare, and this put Lady Liberty herself in a mad dash to catch up to the new set bar. One foolproof way to make sure that our next generation is smarter, faster, and more efficient than our communist enemies was to add a few more pounds on the workout weights of our youth’s brains, but there was a problem. Still our schools today are rushing to crunch and cram as much information into their student’s minds as possible in the limited time allowed to the teachers, and our nation needed a way to extend the education past the normal school hours, so our nation turned to homework. But now today, we are at peace with our Russian brothers, and it is time to start teaching student much smarter, and no longer any harder, because students who won’t take the time to work at school, certainly won’t take any time out of there precious day to focus on something they may not be grasping completely. There is no longer a need for excessive amounts of homework. Homework is no longer an effective way of helping students raise their poor grade in a teacher’s class. Society today tells teens and children that they will never be good enough, and a poor grade may just further justify that statement. Teachers most of the time want to give students every possible chance to succeed
