Introduction: We did this essay in this semester's beginning. We have different sides in different groups and write the essay with the research information.
Reflection: I think the hardest thing to me is my position, it is hard to write. The thing I did well is search the information. If I write this essay again, I would like to change a position and I think I can do it better.

Should homework be banned or not
First at all, I believe that schools should ban homework for their students. Students don’t have enough time to do other things after school because of homework. Homework will decrease our sleeping time. Homework will give us more pressure. We already have many kinds of subjects. And sometimes homework is not helpful, because we already have enough practice in class if we focus on class. So it is wasting time.
Researchers from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, U.S., looked at transcripts and data for more than 18,000 tenth grade students nationwide. Their findings show more homework assignments didn’t translate into better grades. That show us focus on class is more efficiency than do more homework assignment at home. And if students do homework without any improvements, this is wasting time. Prof Tai said: ‘In today’s current educational environment, with all the activities taking up the children’s time both in school and out of school, the purpose of each homework assignment must be clear and targeted. With homework, more is not better.’ If there is no improvement, teachers didn’t achieve their purpose, why do we need homework?
Homework just added stress to us. ‘The more time students spend on homework, it’s not clear that they are getting better grades or better test score.’ said Robert Tai, an associate professor with the Curry School of Education at UVa. Every time come to the final, we will have so much homework to do. It will let us feel nervous about the final exam. For example, we are very busy during the final because we need to finish many projects. We may feel uncomfortable when we didn’t finish our assignments. We don’t want to do other things even when we are have lunch, we will still thinking about the homework.
Data from the AIFS found 95 percent of ten years old and eleven years old students were given homework. I think children at that age should take more break because they need to sleep for enough time to let them grow up. When children were 10 or 11 years old, they don’t have ability to manage themselves well. So there must be someone to in charge of them. Parents are not always have time. For example, The Chinese Education always let us to do a lot of assignment whether it is helpful to our study or not. When we were in the middle school, we should do our homework until 00:00 almost every day. It is really influence our life. We cannot have enough time to sleep. So the next day, we might feel sleepy during the class. That makes our efficiency become lower during the class because we cannot focus. We don’t know what we learn in this class. It is negative to our study.
In a word, more homework is not gonna be helpful to our study. It will influence our physical health and mental health. So I believe that school should ban homework for their students.
