Don't you think homework is stupid? It's like "You guys worked very good all day today, now go to your house and work some more!"

It doesn't make sense to me. Why do we have to go to our fun house and work some more?

Homework at college to me makes a bit more sense. Because your there to learn a particular subject.

As for Highschool. I really thought it was a waste, especially because my classmates were morons, includin my teacher.

I didn't know that Cenere was in colege, that surprises me.

I'm not sure if I should be happy or sad about that.

Reminds me of awesome thing (because I don't want to reply to the comments, obviously):
You know how math teachers always argue you will ttly need math in real life? That it is very important to know how to solve long equations?
Yeaaaah. Math is probably the only science that doesn't have to relate to reality at any point.

yes true. you will need math to do well in most jobs that make more than minimum wage. i think that science can be useful sometimes, but most of it is just BS that we don't really need to know. like i need to spend 2 weeks studying how hot the sun is!

Lol. I'm lucky my teacher had a bunch of different jobs before, so he actually sometimes says, "Who needs math?", since he knows that in reality only a certain field of jobs require complex math.

I agree with this. Home should be a place where we can relax. A place where we can get some rest, have fun. It would actually help in school because we wouldn't be worried about forgetting our homework or anything.

Sure, only a few jobs "require" complex math, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't learn it anyway. Math can help you understand the world/universe better, and it also exercises your problem-solving abilties. If you don't care about either of those things, then don't learn complex math (or just find another way to understand things....).

Homework is used for maintenance of learned skills and for retaining new knowledge resented recently.

Oops, typo. That's supposed to say "Presented Recently".

I have to totally agree with that comment. It does have a certain amount of value to it

I think homework is bloody ridiculous. Why if we go to school to be educated are we required to continue studies at home? To me that signals that school isn't doing its job. Secondly, as a child/teenager there are two parts to the day, school where you go to learn, and out-of-school where you have fun. Keep the learning in one category.

Additionally half the crap that gets chucked at us is exactly the same as what we do in lesson. If someone feels uncomfortable with a topic then the student should ask the teacher or the school should revise who have the job of teaching.
