Here is a discussion on homework at the university level. The transcript is in this site, in case you do not understand the audio. There is also a quiz to check your comprehension in that page.1) Is there a balanced view on this subject, just one point of view or more than one position?
2) Do they include evidence or facts to prove their positions?
3) What is YOUR position? Do you think there should be homework at the university or not?
Do you need to be told what to do, like doing assignments and practicing, or are you responsible enough to do what you are supposed to?
More information if you want to read about research on the pros and cons of homework.
Here is a sample of our next argumentation exam on Thursday April 2nd (week 12).
