It is very common to see
children
 nowadays being pressured by their education system. There is a belief that
homework
 is not required for a successful education while others disagree by pointing out that it is rather crucial.
This
 essay looks
further
 into both aspects and agrees that take-home assignment is important to the extent that the amount is balanced, not so many that it starts to be stressful. For some who hold that assignment is optional,
children
 will have more freedom to manage their own studying performance.
Students
 will not be forced to revise the material at a period of
time
 that instructors set up as a due date, so they will have more
time
 to do other beneficial activities
such
 as playing outside, spending
time
 with their friends and families or relaxing.
Therefore
,
this
 aspect relies on
children
's responsibility and effective
time
 management, or else
students
 would perform poorly at school because of a lack of material revision.
On the other hand
, many believe that
homework
 is required at school because it keeps
children
 engaged in studying.
Furthermore
, by having to hand in assignments on
time
, it practices
students
' punctuality which is important in their career life.
As a result
, despite being tough on
students
, the benefits outweigh the cons of giving out
homework
. In my opinion,
homework
 is beneficial when it is gradually assigned each session.
Students
 should evaluate themselves by checking if they fully understand and be able to complete the assignment.
However
, teachers should keep in mind that
students
 have many subjects to attend every school day, so many courses could assign
homework
 at the same
time
 resulting in too many tasks to complete at home. In
this
 case,
homework
 will no longer act as a help anymore, but rather a torturing. In conclusion,
this
 essay successfully looks into both views and provides my opinion that
homework
 plays a vital role in schooling but it has to be carefully assigned.
