Do you think we(students) get TOO much homework in high school?

We Answered:

We get waaay too much. I'm in my last year of High school and I get so much that I don't get to bed until really late sometimes. It's not so much that they're really hard, it's just they're soooo time consuming!! Teachers don't realise that we actually have lives outside of school and they just keep piling it up. They don't understand that we have OTHER teachers that also give us mountains of it.

I think school should be for the working. We shouldn't have to do it at home. We go to school six hours a day, five days a week...Our leisure time should be spent doing whatever we want, not what teachers want us to do.

high school students with jobs during the school year?

We Answered:

I'm a sophomore in college studying psychology and I am in this class called "Adolescent and Adult Development" and this was one of the chapters in our text book. Here are some of my notes:

Adolescent Employment in US Timeline:
- 1925 – Most 15 year olds leave school for full-time labor
- 1940 - 70% of 14-17 year olds in school; 30% in full-time labor force
- 1950+ - Post WWII saw increase in retail trade and service
- 1980 – 50-60% of high school students were working part-time jobs while being in school full time.
- 1990 – Over 80% of high school seniors had held at least one part-time job.

Work: good or bad?
- Good things about teens who have jobs:
- Responsibility
- Money & time management
- Social & occupational skills
- Self-esteem
- Life satisfaction

- Bad things about teens who have jobs:
- Greater drug, alcohol & cigarette use
- Increased anxiety & depression
- Decreased sleep & exercise
- Less time for homework
- Negative results present at 10 hours or more a week…

confused high school student with summer homework...HELP PLEASEE!!!?

We Answered:

The basic argument that people have used against evolution is that a given metabolic pathway couldn't have arisen because all of these enzymes would have to have been created at the same time for the final product to be able to be produced. The counter to this argument is that a given metabolic pathway as it exists today wasn't present in an ancestor. "The existing diversity of metabolic pathways that produce the same or similar products" indicates how the current pathway could have evolved from several pathways coming together in an ancestor in order to create the desired product. Thus, an ancestral organism could have had part of a metabolic pathway and then acquired a portion of another metabolic pathway from another organism and added that to a pathway it already had in order to create a new pathway (and that new pathway would have to be passed on to its progeny and that new pathway be advantageous for the species for evolution to occur). Alternatively, a portion of a pathway that makes a similar product could have been used by the ancestor and through mutations, that portion of a pathway could have evolved into the current pathway. Does this help?

Jim Said:

Is it legal to provide students with research for homework help and research papers?

We Answered:

Academic freedom gives the schools and students on what to do with their educational system. Thus, they have the choice whether to provide research to students as a service of a business.
