There’s an interesting line in the article towards the end about homework being a teacher’s way to exercise power over a student’s time when they are in their own home. I thought it was noticeable that the argument didn’t take the next logical step and observe that homework, in addition to demanding the child’s time, usurps the sovereignty of the parents in their own home by turning it into a workplace devoted to the school.
I wonder if and how parent’s perception of homework changed amidst the rise in remote work arrangements over the past few years.
