I have a radical take on this. Why not just let them do what they want? Put all the emphasis on the exams. Education for some reason has always been about bullshit busy work anyway. Homework is for people who don’t understand the material and need more practice imo and should be optional and worth 0-5% of the grade. Have midterms finals and projects count more, and the tests would probably be monitored with proctors anyway right? I went to a mediocre college because in high school I would get F for homework. 95-100 on midterms and finals. 5s on all AP tests and almost perfect on SAT. artificial gate keeping based on a GPA based on BS work because even if I got the material and ace the tests the best I can get is like a B. And I did “bad” in college too where I failed homework and scored 95-100 on exams. If you’re gonna impose busy work on me I’m not doing it if I don’t feel it’s necessary for me. And I shouldn’t be punished for it. And neither should these students if they are genuine about learning. I’m there to learn by choice. Education needs to evolve. It keeps some people down for no reason.
