"Sometimes I wonder." -- Anoymous.

WHO INVENTED HOMEWORK.

There is no clear date or inventor.



•Teachers who want their students to learn the subject and end up being at least moderately intelligent adults.


•Homework is meant to let you practice what you are learning. It has been around as long as schools have, because it is needed to help you learn what you need to learn.


•School education has always been expensive, teachers have to be present to show and guide students through lessons as well as needing time to plan work and mark tests e.t.c, e.t.c. So during the normal work time that he cant teach you s/he organises work for you to do under your own cognisance. Home work gives the student to opportunity to continue their education during the time that the teacher cant be there with them without the associated cost of keeping a school building running. It also prepares a person in the knowledge that being able to organise and do work on your own will stand you in good stead out in the real world. The most important thing a school can do for you is teach you how to learn.
