教师们常常在布置家庭作业时,很少给学生以选择的自由。教师指定家庭作业的好处,在于教师可以确切知道每个学生所做作业情况,也使得随后对全班的作业检查相当简单。不利之处则是,有些家庭作业超出了学生掌握的相关知识的实际,而学生又不能自选作业,让学生错过了自负其责的机会。如有一天,我在办公室接到学生家长打来的电话,声称教师布置的作业又多又难,学生做到深更半夜也 Teachers often seldom give students the freedom of choice when arranging homework. The benefit of having a teacher assign homework is that the teacher knows exactly what each student does and also makes subsequent homework assignments fairly simple. The downside is that some homework goes beyond the knowledge of the students, and students are not able to do their homework, leaving students to miss out on their own responsibility. One day, I received a phone call from my parents in the office, claiming that the assignments of teachers were more and more difficult.
