WILL BE COOL I U HELP^^ 11 Points!!

Each school day, students head home with a list of assignments. From reading chapters to writing reports to preparing projects, students often have hours of homework to complete each day. The National Education Association recommends about two hours of homework for high school students per day. However, many receive three hours or more.

Some in the educational community claim that this is too much and that students are overwhelmed. Research shows that high levels of homework can result in increased stress, weight loss, exhaustion, sleep deprivation, and other issues. In a study in the Journal of Experimental Education, 56 percent of the students cited homework as their main cause of stress.

However, others say that the amount of homework has not changed substantially. According to a 2014 Brookings Institute’s report on education in America, homework load has remained stable since 1984. Many educators explain that handling a homework load remains important because it helps students practice responsibility and time management.
