Our trig and calc teacher (taught both, had her two years) gave 45-90 minutes of homework every goddamn night, unless we'd had a test.
She was a major part of why I just gave up on doing a whole lot of my homework in high school. That's a lot of time period, let alone for just one class, and others would assign work, too. Screw that, I'd already spent a workday of time in school.
College was such a relief. So much more free time even if I did 100% of what professors asked of me. So's work life as an adult. High school is batshit crazy.
- mangodrunk 3y agoBoth trigonometry and calculus are classes that I think should be dropped in high school. I think it would be much better to teach probability and statistics (without calculus) and personal finance. A lot of the math curriculum in high school doesn’t make sense for someone not planning to major in math.
