are you a student? have you ever been a student? do you take your homework seriously? i am a teacher, last week, i asked students to send in a paper about what we have learned? you know what they send in today? so many papers that directly downloaded from internet even without a tiny changes. some students even downloaded the same paper,and send them to me, of course, they dont know that. are you the students like that kind?

Of course, I do. As in once it was given, I start to work for it.

obviously, you are a good student, a docile student also. i am wondering have you ever thought that some lesson is not that important, and will do no help to you, then you would take it less seriously. if you are no interested in some lessons, will you still be work for it?

For me doing my homework was always a headache. I don't understand why schools give homework?After attending the school for long hours,students are already so streesed out,they become late while coming to home,they need to sleep,they have 2 or 3 coachings a day,and more to go.In mid of all this students CAN'T manage to do their homework. In my school days,i always used to copy the homework from my freinds notes without even understanding a single word of it. Therefor,in my opinion homework shuold always be given only in weekends.

Well no. I used to do my homework seriously. Sometimes even completed it in school itself.

Homework is such an important thing in school life. I think homework can make us understand the concepts more, more than that homework helps in keeping us in touch with the concepts that were taught that day. But, so much is it, i dont like doing homeworks as psychologically it is a burden for the students. I really dont like it when i have to do a lot of homework. Everybody wants to take rest in their houses rather than sitting and nutting over the books right.

Hi! I used to be a student. Now, I'm working for a company. When I was a student, I felt our homework was necessary but it was not enough. Because I was a good student in our class. I always bought or borrowed some books to do some extra excercises to improve myself. I was not lucky like your students. Twenty years ago, few people have a computer, let alone me.

frankly i never used to take homework seriously.Only if homework was interesting enough i would do it.I used to think homework was boring and useless, except when the exercise given was something a bit interesting and we could relate to it somehow.
