How Has Traveling Affected You?By Gabriel Pearson

How has traveling affect you? Well I think in many ways traveling can affect you by the way you are,your trips will shape you the way you are thats what we will discus in the next paragraphs.

In this paragraph we will talk about how does traveling affect you for example will you change or will you become a better person?Well for me yes it change me I didn't realize what I had finally after coming back I wished I could go back to this trip again and again because this is what learns you all of the thing that you don't know. 

A trip is meeting new people new culture it changes you of how you saw and see the world now this is why we are all different we all come from a different place and go to different places and this is what shapes us our feelings our view of all the world and people from everywhere we are all different.

In conclusion people are all different ans trips are the way we are shaped and how we see the world or people.

Does Homework Really Help You Learn? By Tristan Bedard

Homework: Finishing work outside of class to help you learn during the process. The definition of homework is a lie. Homework isn't about finishing up classwork anymore, it's now a task. We spend approximately 6 hours in school sitting in chairs listening to teachers and when we finally arrive home, we can't relax anymore, we have 2 hours of homework to do plus our out of school activities. Homework isn't a learning enhancing method anymore, it's a burden.

When most students arrive home, they don't have the energy to complete unfinished work. Most students don't even bother completing their homework since so little teachers even check the answers to grade it, they just skim over it to check if all the answers have been answered, students catch up on the teachers habits, they will just answer whatever they feel like because they know they will get the right answers since the the corrections will be on the board.

In today's generation, school grades aren't as good as they were before. You can blame it on all you want on media, social networks etc... The only reason for this, lack of participation amongst the teachers. Before, teachers used to collect the work that was assigned and grade it, now they just check if the student answered all the questions and that is an issue.

Homework was once a tool to retain the information you learned during the day, but now it's just a task, basically a waste of time. Most highs school students have more than one after school activity, like sports, a job etc, and we don't have anytime to relax. The next day, the teachers complain that our homework isn't done. Which adds up even more pressure.

Studies suggests that high school students, in this current generation, are 25% more stressed than others. With added homework and long-lasting projects in multiple classes it is just hard to get a hold of schoolwork.

I have nothing against education and learning, but today's schools and classes aren't as useful as they used to be. In my opinion homework isn't worth it anymore because of accumulated homework and projects, high levels of stress and simply a lack of combined time with out of school activities. There is only one simple solution to avoid this problem, teachers must grade homework.


Does Homework Help You Learn? By Josh Jacques- Alain

Should teachers give homework? The answer you should think of is yes because  if your student does not pass his year they will take a look at your homework and will maybe make you pass. Homework helps students to learn because by doing it many times it becomes more clear. Students learn a lot of thing in homework and they understand more when the teacher give homework not too difficult. Students develops their skills by doing more homework.

First of all, students learn a lot in homework because if they need to learn something new for the next class. They would try it by their own and if they have trouble they could already go see the teacher to ask. 

Secondly, student develop their skill by doing homework because if they did different thing but a like they will find the trick to make it. When the student have enough develop, his skill the teacher makes the homework harder so they could have more skills.

In fact, homework help to learn more and easier because when you do homework you develop skilland you learn new subjects. Its through that teacher give student a lot of homework but does it worth it?
