Hello Hivers, hope you all are doing good. Today's post I am writing after getting too many assignments from college.

As a student myself, I must admit that homework is an important part of an #education. However, it does have its merits and demerits. It builds #discipline in the student's mind. It helps them to stay focused on a certain task for hours. It also gives an opportunity to see how the student works and what they are capable of. This helps teachers to understand the students well.

However, in many cases it is excessive. It should be kept at a moderate level only. It is true that homework teaches the students how to focus on a certain task, but it can also be harmful for them in many ways.

Here are some reasons to reduce excessive #homework:

The purpose of education is to prepare a student for the real world which includes work. And what does homework do? It just teaches them how to study and memorize stuff, but they will eventually have to learn how to think on their own in the workplace.
Homework won't make students to pass because if the teacher asks them questions about it, they can ask their parents or look online for an answer rather than spending countless hours trying to figure out what someone else wanted them to get from a chapter.
It distracts them from their other activities, such as #sports or #socializing with friends.
It causes them to be stressed out, which can lead to mental problems.
Several students usually get distracted from their homework and lose the #focus.

The reason why Finland has the best education system in the world because they don't give homework to their student's.

While watching video's on YouTube I got this video, which i would like to share.
