Homework Myth

Talks about homework - its negative effects, and why it's so widely accepted. This book examines the usual defences of homework - that it promotes higher educational achievement, "reinforces" learning, and teaches study skills and responsibility. It shows how none of these assumptions actually passes the test of logic, research, or experience.
