Thread Starter Re: Homework Waiver!

so what most of you are saying is that BECAUSE, homework is boring, tedious, etc. is the reason why we should do it? I understand that jobs have boring parts (i work part-time at Toys R Us, I know all about boring) but they all have some sort of reason. Homework's purpose is memorization through repetition or simply reading something to know the information, so if i have already completed the purpose, why go through the motions? I would hate filing reports or standing at a cash register or restocking shelves if they served no meaning, but they do! The end result can only be accomplished through the work in the real world, if there were an easier way, everyone would do that instead. Basically what I am saying here is I understand the importance of knuckling down and just doing it, but only when that is the only way to accomplish the task at hand.

Eager to see your responses.
