I suggest to my students that approximately 1/2 hour 4 - 5 nights a week should be sufficient. They are generally not taking more than 4 or 5 courses at a time, as we are on semester, which means that if all teachers made the same recommendation, they would spend maybe 10 hours a week doing homework. Many of our students are holding part time jobs outside of school, in addition to volunteer work and extracurricular activities, so to ask more would likely be unreasonable, and they wouldn't do it anyway. I also leave them some discretion - since I don't do homework checks, if they are busy the night I give an assignment, I don't expect it done the next day, but I do suggest they find time to do the assignments before the next test if they wish to do well on the test. ***************************************************************** * Nancy Kerr * At the end of the game, both the king * * Winnipeg MB * and the pawn go back in the same box. * * nkerr@minet.gov.mb.ca * * *****************************************************************
