Is homework important for students?

Schools give assignments to students. This is one of important role. A lot of students don't like that, and even some people suspect its meaning. I think homework is essentially important element for students. There are 2 reasons that will lead you to this conclusion.

First, time is limited. Learning is based on a lot of effort that requires a lot of time. And that is not enough just study at school. Also, the levels of each student differ that the school as a whole has to adopt to the average student, this makes some top-notch students boring. However, this is inevitable because school has to offer a unified education in a sense. Therefore, homework will complement this downsides of school education.

Second, I think the most important role of school is to make students get used to learning constantly and alone. Since learning at school is just a part of entire life that each person has to do something on their own. And if he/she has a custom of learning by themselves, it will be so much easier to explore the new world, this will bring a progress to students. Therefore, giving a homework to students will grow this habit.

In conclusion, giving homework to students will make them more independent in learning, and complement the drawback of school education. For these reasons, I think it is important to give homework for students.
