Fun fact: Finland's education system has little to no homework. They focus on playing outside and socializing with family and friends instead. Incidentally, Finland not only has one of the top education systems in the world, they have also been the world's happiest country for six years running.
Also fun fact: The Finnish almost entirely put every homeless person in a little apartment thing with low cost bills, and it was cheaper then allowing homelessness to continue as well. Finland is the shit man.
As someone who was always the smart kid, who was in GT and got good grades, everything stopped in fifth grade. I lost all my confidence, stopped doing homework because it took up time I could've used to do anything else, and just didn't turn in any assignments. If I didn't turn them in on time, they wouldn't be turned in at all.
I had a math teacher who utilized a flexible teaching format. He prerecorded lessons that you could watch either in class or whenever. He prioritized class time for practicing the concepts so he could help and guide students through the process as they did it. There was no homework, only quizzes and tests and a cool project at the end of the year that substituted the final. If you had watched the lessons and made the most out of class time to practice and ask questions, you did well for yourself. I don't ever remember struggling or stressing out over his math class.
Reminds me of when I went for a science competition back in high school and found out one of the smartest kid there would close from school by 3pm. And my school had us closing 5:30... getting home by 6 and having ton of assignments to do. It was as if giving students more time to assimilate what they've been studying makes em smarter or something 🙂
I had a Math teacher who assigned 30 minutes of homework each class, and offered after school help for anyone who needed it. Every student that had a class with him (aside from one weirdo) said he was the best math teacher they ever had.
I have a biology teacher that never gives homework. He just gives us papers so we can learn the subject( that isn't even that long) then after a week we have a quizz, but not a boring, stressful multi answer quizz, he just asks us questions from the things we did last time, and it works. I can remember more information from that class than all the rest of my classes combined. That man is a saint!
I absolutely love the idea of getting homework as punishment for lazy or bad students. It will motivate the rest to study and the ones assigned with homework to pay more attention and get their sht in order.
I feel like that would make everyone think homework is still trash because "we don't know how the teacher decides to hand it out. How lazy is too lazy?"
@@silentnight3192 Sure, those are the obvious signs, but what if you get a really strict teacher where even being caught staring off into space for a few moments is instant homework?
Nothing beats start of the year meeting your new teachers and they say "i dont assign homework in this class, the only time there will be homework is if you dont finish your classwork"
Real talk, in college I hated taking notes during class, so for 4 and a half years, whenever I had free time I would always make my own notes ahead of time. Whenever I was too tired to make notes I'd just opt to read; basically I was always trying to literally stay ahead of the topic just so I could have the luxury to just sit and listen with a neck pillow on my head leaning on the wall or the table every time class starts; even if I fell asleep I practically didn't miss anything. But the biggest bitch of a foil to this perfect system, was every time I had to do pre-written lab write-ups. In the first and 2nd years I had like multiple subjects to outrun so just a single lab report combined with any extra take-home work would just set me back to square one and I hated that so much
Homework’s original intention wasn’t that bad, it’s when the teachers became lazy and books mass produced, homework became the definition of what causes suicide

@@drshockwaveIt's not entirely their fault. We're starting to see a demographic change in the work ethics of students and young workers. Not to sound like a parent but it genuinely is "those damn phones", nobody actually wants to put the effort forth for the reward at the end of it. Are Schools incredibly flawed? Yes. Are they responsible for tragedies like suicide? NO! The amount of hardship you have actually have to endure in order to go that far is simply impossible if you have either a good home life or good school life. Either one gives you a release from a shitty situation which helps alleviate mental health issues. What needs to happen is a complete restructuring of the entire school system in America. We spend the most on Schooling in the world and aren't even in second place for literacy. This is a problem rooted at the core of society. It might sound insane and delusional but schools are supposed to teach the newer generations important skills and work ethic. If that doesn't stick society collapses.
I actually showed this video to my teacher by projecting it to the entire class. Unfortunately, she couldn’t go 5 minutes and we watched something else. I hope she learned something from that because the rest of the class sure did.
I remember so many traumatic nights with my parents screaming at me about not being able to do basic math, and me bawling my eyes out. Protip: yelling at a kid makes it REALLY hard for them to concentrate! For the vast majority of my public education, I scraped by just doing the barest minimum of assigned homework. I was fine if I enjoyed the class, but if it didn't interest me, I didn't bother. Got diagnosed with ADHD late, at the age of 18. Oh and I also have dyscalculia, so that explains the math thing.
I got perfect scores in English, science, literature. Everything but handling numbers. Simply because I would make these bizarre calculation mistakes even I couldn't explain. It was like my brain was imagining another number, and at that time the answer made sense. Fifty or more long division problems. Simplifying fractions. Failures. And, even if I got a C, I was told to redo the entire assignment again because that wasn't good enough. Homework on top of new homework. So I just quit. Everything. By fifth grade I just stopped trying. Not just math, everything. Even the things I was good at. I especially like to recall my oh so serious assignment of gluing fucking Cheerios to poster board to make a model of an atom. I don't know. It's not that complex really, but something about the monotony just pissed me off so badly I preferred to sit and do nothing, as opposed to that. Fucking that. I'm dying anyway now. I didn't even make it to forty. Just barely, and these last years are full of pain and exhaustion. And I probably won't even see forty, in the end. I know plenty about atoms. Enough. And most of it came from random RUclips binges. You know what I learned in school? That we need to take weeks to finish one short story about Donna Devarona, gold medal swimmer. That name, that utterance, with precisely that title, is burned into my goddamn mind, to the point I can still hear my teacher's accent when saying, Donna Devarona. Gold medal. Fucking swimmer. I was in fourth grade. I read every story in that reading book well before the year was up. You know what happened? I got in trouble for not being on the same page as the rest of the class, reading about Donna. Fucking Devarona. Gold medal bane of my goddamn existence... Got a little heated there. Point is people who have high school diplomas ask me not only to spell things for them, but I shit you not, they will ask me to do math problems as well when they need help with basic multiplication. That's fucking astounding. I lose my place counting change, and somehow I'm more fit to do basic math. And I have no diploma. I guess I did say that I just stopped trying at all in school, so, no surprises there. Fuck it. Dying. Don't ever let anyone force you to do stupid crap. Die on that hill. It's better than living on theirs.
Ah shit, y'know what? I got curious about the spelling. I was just crap shooting phonetically. It's De Varona. When I say that sound is burned into my brain I mean it.
@@ashwhiteforest9078 You sound like a smart guy/girl that really was destroyed by school, and I get you I literally have the exact same problems. When I do math equations, for example last time on a test that I was learning 30 hours for, my brain thought it would be cool idea to swap the equation formulas that you need to use for basically every equation on the test making my grade go from probably B+ to an E, my brain also does this thing where I can do the whole equation correctly, and at the end when I have to write down the result, I just write something completely different than what I just completed calculating. I also have dyslexia and I have to be given more time on tests, which should look like this: Everybody has 60 minutes to complete the test, and I receive 90 minutes. So I was on my way to school to write this test I studied so much for and somebody decided to faint on my train, so I had to catch another one because that one had to stop, I somehow made it but I literally had to run to make it, do you know how much additional time I received from the teacher even tho I was late (not because of my actions) and i even tho i have dyslexia? 5 minutes. I got 5 fuck*** minutes despite all of this, I get that this is a teacher issue but god damn it i have bad luck, and a bad teacher. But despite all of this I didn’t gave up. At the time I studied for 3 days, 10 hours a day a straight and right before school, I was just exhausted on this test, instead right now I’m learning every day, not because I need to, not because I want to. I learn because I’m not forced to, Oh the test is in a month? I’ll just start learning right now. I only learn in small amounts, and I make it as easy and comfy for myself as possible. I get a coffee/tea, a comfortable blanket, I launch the lofi hip hop stream, and I just go with it. The hardest part is actually starting, but once you do it’s easy, and there are 2 sayings, that motivate me every time to do hard things to the point where sometimes it’s annoying to remember them because I know that if I recall them I will do those hard things: if you won’t do it, the only person you’re cheating on is yourself, and do the hard work especially when you don’t feel like it :), and it’s not only for learning math of course, but going back to it when I write results I always go back and check whether i wrote them down correctly, practice makes prefect. I know the system is so fuck*** stupid but all you can realistically do is change you’re attidute towards it and play smart against it. I do the bare minimum on the subjects I don’t need for passing my final high school exam because they don’t matter (I’m from Europe, idk what the situation looks like in your country) and I give all of my time to the ones that I will need to use on the final exam. You just gotta make it work for you.The worst thing you can do is give up, and I don’t mean only school. I didn’t believe I could overcome this, and I did, and I bet there is somebody who wants you to succeed and get this fricking paper or whatever it is you want to succeed in, you can do it for them, and even if there is no one like this, I believe in you :)
@HQ I figured that out way too late in life. Almost all of my capability stems from habits and understandings I picked up less than ten years ago. I'm gonna be honest, if I had my life ahead of me now I'd become a complete menace to society. But yeah, that comes from believing in hard work and never giving up. I think decades of severe social isolation turned me into something of a faux psychopath. I have extreme emotional connections to things, but in the end, I found that so many powerful and law abiding people just got there from a combination of luck and being on the right side of the sword when the poppies fall. So my biggest piece of advice is exactly that. Don't learn to impress others. Learn specifically so you can crush them. A lack of intelligence can be countered with knowledge. If you can't figure it out yourself, steal, and most importantly, remember the answer. Come to terms with your dark side, make peace with your demons, and find out how to feed them. You wanna be a drug dealer? Be the best. Be the most affluent and capable criminal on earth, and absolutely crush everything in your way. Do *nothing* for the sake of people's approval, unless you feel that approval will genuinely fulfill you. That case? Go full Mother Theresa, and the *things* you learn about her. About Gandhi. It's almost no coincidence that my health began to fail the moment I realized just how little I really wanted or needed in life, and just how much I could get away with if I walked around like I genuinely owned the world already. Thing is I wanted everyone to feel that freedom, so while it seems dangerous and manipulative, I was extremely forthright about this, and even encouraged people to call me out on it. People actually love honesty, come to find. And suddenly I'm dying? Tell me that's not divine intervention. I'm probably gonna be in a heap of trouble for the answer I arrived at in life. But you can't say I was duplicitous or unfair about it.
i wish i could enjoy language arts (that’s what it’s called in my school) i got assigned a massive project that has almost no resemblance to what i have spent the year in language arts learning except the idea of -claim/thesis -3 examples to back up your claim -conclusion which has been tought at my school since 5th grade, so it seems pointless
Wow I'm fuming I actually would have passed school with Flying Colors if that would have been my situation. All those years wasted on stuff I had to teach myself anyways. And now I have to waste more years to get a piece of paper for the equivalent. That's just a kick in the nuts to say the least.
In my school I am simply not given homework, there’s no laws against it or anything, the professors just don’t care enough or aren’t paid enough to care

My story about homework. I had a chest infection for three weeks and missed school. My math teacher told me to do a whole two weeks of homework I missed and the homework that was due the following day and only gave me a week to do it all. Luckily my friends helped me and managed to finish it all. I had to ask five people to help me. It was during the time when sending it via email didnt exist. 😂
I just pulled 3 all-nighters finishing up the group assignment and I can tell most of the members in my group didn’t learn SHIT Our teacher just totally gave us her share of work and made us teach other students who are like toddlers by this assignment.
One time, i had all A's exept a C. All because of 1 missing assignment worth 4 points, even though in another class with the same points on 5 missing assignments and I got a B
Bro here in Egypt we get MINIMUM 12 pages of homework a class BUT EVEN AFTER ALL OF THAT WE STILL HAVE AFTER SCHOOL CLASSES AND THOSE GIVE MORE DAMN HOMEWORKKKKKKKK
Remember guys, don't blame the creator of homework, he only used it as a punishment against failing and misbehaving students, not forced them to do it every day. I wish it stayed that way, We're all in pain because of it
Blame Horace Mann and who thought it was a good idea to change how it’s handed out (it does sound like it could’ve been somewhat of a good thing in theory, but in practice…) and ESPECIALLY blame the dumbasses who keep enforcing it even after what it’s done.
We actually have this in Russia(or at least in my school) But its only for like 1st-4th graders I dunno if its still here,because i was in 4th grade 7 years ago
THANK YOU! I've never been able to articulate this well, but you said what I've been thinking for a long time, what we've all probably been thinking for a long time. I'm not in school anymore, but I still get pissed off at the fact that homework is still prevalent and as invasive as it is in America.
this made me think of something. when school ends, you aren't happy that you dont have to go to school for a while, your happy you have a few weeks without homework
as a burned out high school student i agree with every point brought up in this video. homework has had a SEVERE negative impact on my mental state and i cant even do any of it because i get like 5 assignments a day its absolute hell.
My teacher did something similar and she taught AP calc and I actually really learned in that class, we did notes and studying at home and doing the work in class, her pure care for her students and style of teacher really helped us and got her our teacher of the state but recently she got TEACHER OF THE NATION LIKE THE G THAT SHE IS, much love to her
As someone who was doing an essay homework just about some minutes ago and reviewing the physics content taught at school later, i can confirm, studying or reviewing a matter for some minutes is better than doing homework to learn something, it's only you memorizing something that you already saw and even noticing some details you didn't found out
I loved my math's teacher for this, she never gave us homework. She would teach us something, gave us some exercises and that was it, really appreciated that woman.
Honestly I loved it when teacher would do open book and or go over stuff the week of the test. It's a lot better and funner than actually studying. Especially when they played games
My current math teacher doesn’t give homework, and only makes us do notes and then give us an assignment that she’ll answer a few questions to make sure we get it, and so far, this has been the easiest math class I ever had, and I’m genuinely enjoying learning math! And I haven’t gotten a final grade above a D in math since 5th grade, and right now I’m actually understanding the work!
"Can we appreciate how hard he works to provide us these videos" - 🤖 "This guy can talk about anything and make it entertaining" - 🤖 "This guy is so relatable" - 🤖
This is why I love him. He gives us lessons that we should be learning in school, but we’re not and is also relatable and it takes anything serious funny.
The amount of painful laughter i had when he was talking about grades going down from an A to an F minus when you missed one assignment was plentiful💀😢😢
The worst part of the schooling system in America is that parents drop mad bread for the kids to learn but most kids are forced to teach themselves since tenured teachers/professors don’t care bout much more than their paycheck
Nah it lasts for a little after the video unless you turn off your device If you turn off your device after watching it, then I guess your Day could be better from him only

Homework’s original intention wasn’t that bad, it’s when the teachers became lazy and books mass produced, homework became the definition of what causes suicide
Honestly, I'd have to agree with that.
what causes suicide is the cringe of the public forcing of your fetish and furry kinks gtfo
What I hate about would be them short deadlines while having to deal with other homework stuff from other subjects

I didn't even make it to forty. Just barely, and these last years are full of pain and exhaustion. And I probably won't even see forty, in the end. I know plenty about atoms. Enough. And most of it came from random RUclips binges. You know what I learned in school? That we need to take weeks to finish one short story about Donna Devarona, gold medal swimmer. That name, that utterance, with precisely that title, is burned into my goddamn mind, to the point I can still hear my teacher's accent when saying, Donna Devarona. Gold medal. Fucking swimmer. I was in fourth grade. I read every story in that reading book well before the year was up. You know what happened? I got in trouble for not being on the same page as the rest of the class, reading about Donna. Fucking Devarona. Gold medal bane of my goddamn existence... Got a little heated there. Point is people who have high school diplomas ask me not only to spell things for them, but I shit you not, they will ask me to do math problems as well when they need help with basic multiplication. That's fucking astounding. I lose my place counting change, and somehow I'm more fit to do basic math. And I have no diploma. I guess I did say that I just stopped trying at all in school, so, no surprises there. Fuck it. Dying. Don't ever let anyone force you to do stupid crap. Die on that hill. It's better than living on theirs.
Ah shit, y'know what? I got curious about the spelling. I was just crap shooting phonetically. It's De Varona. When I say that sound is burned into my brain I mean it.
@@ashwhiteforest9078 You sound like a smart guy/girl that really was destroyed by school, and I get you I literally have the exact same problems. When I do math equations, for example last time on a test that I was learning 30 hours for, my brain thought it would be cool idea to swap the equation formulas that you need to use for basically every equation on the test making my grade go from probably B+ to an E, my brain also does this thing where I can do the whole equation correctly, and at the end when I have to write down the result, I just write something completely different than what I just completed calculating. I also have dyslexia and I have to be given more time on tests, which should look like this: Everybody has 60 minutes to complete the test, and I receive 90 minutes. So I was on my way to school to write this test I studied so much for and somebody decided to faint on my train, so I had to catch another one because that one had to stop, I somehow made it but I literally had to run to make it, do you know how much additional time I received from the teacher even tho I was late (not because of my actions) and i even tho i have dyslexia? 5 minutes. I got 5 fuck*** minutes despite all of this, I get that this is a teacher issue but god damn it i have bad luck, and a bad teacher. But despite all of this I didn’t gave up. At the time I studied for 3 days, 10 hours a day a straight and right before school, I was just exhausted on this test, instead right now I’m learning every day, not because I need to, not because I want to. I learn because I’m not forced to, Oh the test is in a month? I’ll just start learning right now. I only learn in small amounts, and I make it as easy and comfy for myself as possible. I get a coffee/tea, a comfortable blanket, I launch the lofi hip hop stream, and I just go with it. The hardest part is actually starting, but once you do it’s easy, and there are 2 sayings, that motivate me every time to do hard things to the point where sometimes it’s annoying to remember them because I know that if I recall them I will do those hard things: if you won’t do it, the only person you’re cheating on is yourself, and do the hard work especially when you don’t feel like it :), and it’s not only for learning math of course, but going back to it when I write results I always go back and check whether i wrote them down correctly, practice makes prefect. I know the system is so fuck*** stupid but all you can realistically do is change you’re attidute towards it and play smart against it. I do the bare minimum on the subjects I don’t need for passing my final high school exam because they don’t matter (I’m from Europe, idk what the situation looks like in your country) and I give all of my time to the ones that I will need to use on the final exam. You just gotta make it work for you.The worst thing you can do is give up, and I don’t mean only school. I didn’t believe I could overcome this, and I did, and I bet there is somebody who wants you to succeed and get this fricking paper or whatever it is you want to succeed in, you can do it for them, and even if there is no one like this, I believe in you :)
@HQ I figured that out way too late in life. Almost all of my capability stems from habits and understandings I picked up less than ten years ago. I'm gonna be honest, if I had my life ahead of me now I'd become a complete menace to society. But yeah, that comes from believing in hard work and never giving up. I think decades of severe social isolation turned me into something of a faux psychopath. I have extreme emotional connections to things, but in the end, I found that so many powerful and law abiding people just got there from a combination of luck and being on the right side of the sword when the poppies fall. So my biggest piece of advice is exactly that. Don't learn to impress others. Learn specifically so you can crush them. A lack of intelligence can be countered with knowledge. If you can't figure it out yourself, steal, and most importantly, remember the answer. Come to terms with your dark side, make peace with your demons, and find out how to feed them. You wanna be a drug dealer? Be the best. Be the most affluent and capable criminal on earth, and absolutely crush everything in your way. Do *nothing* for the sake of people's approval, unless you feel that approval will genuinely fulfill you. That case? Go full Mother Theresa, and the *things* you learn about her. About Gandhi. It's almost no coincidence that my health began to fail the moment I realized just how little I really wanted or needed in life, and just how much I could get away with if I walked around like I genuinely owned the world already. Thing is I wanted everyone to feel that freedom, so while it seems dangerous and manipulative, I was extremely forthright about this, and even encouraged people to call me out on it. People actually love honesty, come to find. And suddenly I'm dying? Tell me that's not divine intervention. I'm probably gonna be in a heap of trouble for the answer I arrived at in life. But you can't say I was duplicitous or unfair about it.

which has been tought at my school since 5th grade, so it seems pointless
My school has a grading system where homework does not effect your grade. What a true luxury.
Edit: Maspeth High School.
Wow I'm fuming I actually would have passed school with Flying Colors if that would have been my situation. All those years wasted on stuff I had to teach myself anyways. And now I have to waste more years to get a piece of paper for the equivalent. That's just a kick in the nuts to say the least.
You live in La La Licorice land?
Bro same over here
In my school I am simply not given homework, there’s no laws against it or anything, the professors just don’t care enough or aren’t paid enough to care
Take me to your school now!

My story about homework. I had a chest infection for three weeks and missed school. My math teacher told me to do a whole two weeks of homework I missed and the homework that was due the following day and only gave me a week to do it all. Luckily my friends helped me and managed to finish it all. I had to ask five people to help me. It was during the time when sending it via email didnt exist. 😂

Who else remembers that one kid who at the end of the class would remind the teacher to pass out homework. I wish the hell I didn't.

Hearing the history of homework through Degenoricity is pure content.
7:55 is soooo accurate
True, I missed one assignment and got an F
If you miss 1 loss it all free
One time, i had all A's exept a C. All because of 1 missing assignment worth 4 points, even though in another class with the same points on 5 missing assignments and I got a B
Out of all my years being on youtube and somehow passing highschool this is the video i can relate to the most.
Bro here in Egypt we get MINIMUM 12 pages of homework a class BUT EVEN AFTER ALL OF THAT WE STILL HAVE AFTER SCHOOL CLASSES AND THOSE GIVE MORE DAMN HOMEWORKKKKKKKK
Remember guys, don't blame the creator of homework, he only used it as a punishment against failing and misbehaving students, not forced them to do it every day. I wish it stayed that way, We're all in pain because of it
Blame Horace Mann and who thought it was a good idea to change how it’s handed out (it does sound like it could’ve been somewhat of a good thing in theory, but in practice…) and ESPECIALLY blame the dumbasses who keep enforcing it even after what it’s done.
4:45 no one told me he was packing the entire baking industry

In my classes, the teachers don't really "have homework" but give us a fuck ton of classwork to the point it becomes homework
Tbh if I ever become a teacher, I'd just make it a punishment, after all, it was originally meant to be that
Imagine if school changed it to "Extra work" and you're not allowed to leave until you finish it, or a certain time passes
You psycho path don’t give them any ideas
Hell
The whole population of students are gonna commit a "Dream on"💀
Nah that's better. At least you're still in a learning environment when doing homework.
We actually have this in Russia(or at least in my school)
But its only for like 1st-4th graders
I dunno if its still here,because i was in 4th grade 7 years ago

THANK YOU! I've never been able to articulate this well, but you said what I've been thinking for a long time, what we've all probably been thinking for a long time. I'm not in school anymore, but I still get pissed off at the fact that homework is still prevalent and as invasive as it is in America.
this made me think of something. when school ends, you aren't happy that you dont have to go to school for a while, your happy you have a few weeks without homework

as a burned out high school student i agree with every point brought up in this video. homework has had a SEVERE negative impact on my mental state and i cant even do any of it because i get like 5 assignments a day its absolute hell.
Imagine if someone really showed this to there teacher!🤣
He didn't just ruin the childhood of everybody in America. He also ruin the childhood of everybody in the world.
this guy just straight up got up and decided to make such an educational video that all past, present, and future will agree
Let’s hope that at sometime in the future they won’t have any homework
@@HyperNova808 dont think that will happen 💀💀💀💀💀

My teacher did something similar and she taught AP calc and I actually really learned in that class, we did notes and studying at home and doing the work in class, her pure care for her students and style of teacher really helped us and got her our teacher of the state but recently she got TEACHER OF THE NATION LIKE THE G THAT SHE IS, much love to her
Homework over a break or the weekend should be illegal.
every one can agree homework is torture and can ruin your free days
As someone who was doing an essay homework just about some minutes ago and reviewing the physics content taught at school later, i can confirm, studying or reviewing a matter for some minutes is better than doing homework to learn something, it's only you memorizing something that you already saw and even noticing some details you didn't found out
I loved my math's teacher for this, she never gave us homework. She would teach us something, gave us some exercises and that was it, really appreciated that woman.
Honestly I loved it when teacher would do open book and or go over stuff the week of the test. It's a lot better and funner than actually studying. Especially when they played games
My current math teacher doesn’t give homework, and only makes us do notes and then give us an assignment that she’ll answer a few questions to make sure we get it, and so far, this has been the easiest math class I ever had, and I’m genuinely enjoying learning math! And I haven’t gotten a final grade above a D in math since 5th grade, and right now I’m actually understanding the work!
9:40 this type of teaching exists. It’s called the flipped classroom model

thank you so much for tihis video,I laughed so much! I needed it because i having a bad time with math homework!
