They have the largest percentage of kids with no homework (especially when the homework shirkers are added in) and the largest percentage with more than two hours. Of the three age groups, 17-year-olds have the most bifurcated distribution of the homework burden. The disparity can be explained in one of the conclusions regarding the Brown Report:
On our own Student Life in America survey, over 50% of students reported feeling stressed, 25% reported that homework was their biggest source of stress, and on average teens are spending one-third of their study time feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck. The research, conducted among students from 10 high-performing high schools in upper-middle-class California communities, found that too much homework resulted in stress, physical health problems and a general lack of balance.Īdditionally, the 2014 Brown Center Report on American Education, found that with the exception of nine-year-olds, the amount of homework schools assign has remained relatively unchanged since 1984, meaning even those in charge of the curricula don't see a need for adding more to that workload.īut student experiences don’t always match these results. Studies of typical homework loads vary: In one, a Stanford researcher found that more than two hours of homework a night may be counterproductive.
