Homework Policy

I attended staff development day at my high school a few weeks ago and I finally realize how complex the school system is today. We talked about homework policy and how there are times when you can't assign homework over extended holiday breaks which I found interesting because I had so much homework assigned as a high school student during breaks. Furthermore, as teachers we are required to create a survey to gauge how much time students are spending on homework and whether they found the assignment valuable. This survey is suppose to be done either every week or biweekly and needs to be tally and saved. I found this very interesting because I have never heard anything like this before.
