+421 Homework just doesn't seem like a reasonable deal. After sitting in school for hours, why would it ever make sense to give more work to do at home. amirite?

See, this is what you say in school...then you become a teacher and you realize how f***ing hard it is to fit all the material into class time. Especially when kids don't want to actually pay attention and work in class. There are definitely teachers who assign pointless homework. But I don't think you realize how necessary it is until you're on the other end, trying to be the "cool" teacher who doesn't assign homework and discovering how badly that doesn't work.

The only class that I think can actually justify homework is math. I've actually understood stuff better because I did my homework. Other than that though, homework is pointless.

Homework is meant to reinforce the material learned in class or to prelude the information that will be taught.
