    My countries gouvernment has recently proposed a set of laws that would limit the maximum length of homework to 1 hour a day for 0-IV and 2 hours for V-XII
    It would also make all homework for vacations optional

      In the age of AI I don’t even see how homework should even be a thing anymore.

      Or if there is homework, it needs to be tailored in a way that it can’t be fed into a machine and solved, it needs to be projects that lead to personal engagement and reports on what the experience was like, or group activities or something.

      Or tests designed in ways that you need to have understanding of the topic to pass while in class. Basically we need a LOT more teacher involvement, but I’m speaking from a country that hates our own teachers so much that I can’t blame them for sending schoolwork home and trying to be done with the day.

        Project style homework would be so much better, it’s more creative and enjoyable and if you use AI it’s not like you had zero input yourself like what’d happen with a worksheet for example.

        Takes more time to plan this type of homework tho and idk how it’d work generally and it’d probs need to be done in small chunks idk wait am i dumb

        People still do homework even if text generating AI could replace that

        My countries gouvernment hates teachers too
