Except few people, most people feel studying as a burden, especially when it is in a form of homework. Because of this, people, regardless of generation, probably have had experiences of feeling nauseous of doing homework when they were students. Despite the prevalent dislike toward the existence of homework, most of the education institutions adopt the system of giving homework everyday to students in order to help students develop better studying habits, and teachers to plan efficient schedule for their classes.
To begin with, students can develop more effective studying habits by being assigned homework everyday. When students are left alone to study, they are likely to only study what they are interested in, or what they think is the most significant. In addtion, these students are apt to study for a short period of time as they feel sick of keep studying. However, as teachers give students homework everyday, they will have to persevere until finishing their homework disregarding their will, because they feel studying as a responsibility. Moreover, by completing the tasks the teachers made, the students will be able to grow more balanced studying habit. These beneficial habits formed by homework will become the students' habit, as they memorized the studying pattern unconsciously by myriads of practices. In this respect, doing homework everyday can bring forth better studying habit to the students.
Furthermore, teachers can efficiently plan their class schedule. In order to teach students without homework, teachers inevitably have to prepare time to offer background information and help students review and preview class materials, because they are not sure whether the students studied the necessary information. As these information takes up the portion of the class, the teachers often have unenough time to teach the core texts. To solve this problem, the teachers can give students homework everyday to make them prepared for the class. Giving homework that is comprised with review of the class content of that day or preview of the forthcoming class will render students to have deeper understanding about the before class, and background knowledge of the next class. Eventually, based on the settled knowledge, students will obtain more information during the class and learn more swiftly. This will lead teachers to save time by being capable of omitting not essential information, and teach in faster speed. In this regard, the teachers will be able to teach students with better organized lecture.
In light of these circumstances, teachers should give students homework everyday to educate better studying habits and lecture more efficiently .
