They’re pressured by their parents to do their homework while simultaneously being encouraged to spend time with family, eat, spend time with friends, go outside, participate in sports or other extracurricular activities, and sleep for 7+ hours. Rather than motivating students to master material and learn efficiently, homework negatively impacts students by taking away from personal time that is necessary for them to lead balanced lives.]]> 2021-10-04 21:41:26 UTC https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1790923069 811556 https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1790928555 children in disadvantaged areas are more likely headed to work after school, taking care of siblings while their parents work or dealing with an unstable home life.

feelings among students. A substantial percentage of students do not feel happy (82.6%)
or dedicated (89.7%) while completing homework; however, 22.6% of parents and 37.5%
of teachers reported homework has positive effects on students’ social-emotional health.
Based on the data collected, the most common feelings students reported were “Bored”
(41.3%), “Annoyed” (29.1%), “Smart” (24.9%), and “Frustrated” (23.0%). While parent
and teacher responses suggest homework does not affect students’ social-emotional
health, student data indicate homework does affect how they feel. Specifically, children
likely experience feelings of boredom and annoyance toward completing homework at 
46
home. These findings are consistent with results from Bennett and Kalish (2006), which
indicate homework is often “minimally challenging” or used as “busy work.” If the
purpose of homework is to enhance student achievement and foster learning, educators
must re-evaluate homework assignments to align with best practices, as indicated by
Vatterott (2009). For example, homework should be differentiated by the level of
difficulty, as well as the amount of time it takes for completion for each student. ]]> 2021-10-06 21:07:50 UTC https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1797790187 811556 https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1797799746 . Families in the United States have drastically changed over the past 20 years.
More mothers work, more households are run by single parents, and caregivers often
work long hours (Kravolec & Buell, 2000). After long work days, parents often find
themselves battling their children to finish homework. Children may perceive this
homework battle as controlling, which creates conflict and affects individuals’ wellbeing, as well as family relationships. Trautwein et al. (2009) defined homework as a 
20
“double-edged sword,” when it comes to the parent-child relationship. While some
parents can provide students with beneficial homework support, parental support can also
be intrusive. When students receive support that is perceived as overbearing, homework
help is likely to have negative effects on a student’s self-concept. For example, this may
send negative messages to children and adolescents regarding their abilities. When
examining parental homework styles, the study found a controlling approach was
negatively associated with effort and emotions toward homework]]> 2021-10-06 21:14:03 UTC https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1797799746 811556 https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1797813544 Several studies show elementary students who do homework fare no better in school than students who do not.

Homework load was measured utilizing the 10 Minute Rule promulgated by the National Education Association. Family stress, measured by self-report, increased as homework load increased and as parent's perception of their capacity to assist decreased. Contrary to the 10 Minute Rule, primary school children received about three times the recommended load of homework. The amount of homework load reported also varied significantly between English and Spanish speakers, as it did between parents with limited education and those with advanced education.]]> 2021-10-06 21:46:14 UTC https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1797851981 811556 https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1800150115 “Parents may find it hard to evaluate the homework,” she says. “They think, if this is coming home, my child should be able to do it.

Odds are if you ask a teen what's got them so worked up, the subject of school will come up. School can cause a lot of stress, which can lead to other serious problems, like sleep deprivation. According to the National Sleep Foundation, teens need between eight and 10 hours of sleep each night, but only 15 percent are even getting close to that amount. During the school week, most teens only get about six hours of zzz’s a night, and some of that sleep deficit may be attributed to homework.]]> 2021-10-08 20:57:02 UTC https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1803316261 811556 https://padlet.com/811556/u85jherae17zq25/wish/1803318960 Many studies show students who sleep less suffer academically, as chronic sleep loss impairs the ability to remember, concentrate, think abstractly and solve problems.
