Do We Need Homework?

(Introduction)

Many students wonder if we really need homework. In my opinion, we do not need it. We already spend a lot of time at school, and we should not have to do even more work at home. Homework takes away our free time and makes life more stressful.

Body

First, we are at school for about eight hours every day. This is a long time, and we already work hard in class. If we finish all the work during the lessons, we will not need extra time at home. This would be better for students because they could relax after school.

Second, homework takes away time for social life. We need to meet friends, go outside, and enjoy hobbies. If we have too much homework, we stay in our rooms all the time. This makes it harder to make new friends and develop social skills.

Finally, homework can be very stressful. Sometimes, we have deadlines and not enough time to finish. This makes students sleep less and feel tired. When we are too tired, we cannot focus well in school, and our grades can get worse.

Conclusion

In conclusion, I believe that we do not need homework. It takes away our free time, makes us more stressed, and does not help us learn better. Instead of homework, we should finish everything in class. This way, we have more time to enjoy life and still do well in school.

Tip :

Strategy Deepfakes 

Deepfakes are fake videos or images that look very realistic. Using AI (Artificial Intelligence), it is possible to make people say or do things in a video that they didn’t in real life.

How can you check if a video is a deepfake? Ask yourself the following questions:

– Does the person’s mouth make any unnatural movements?

– Are there any blurred pixels?

– Does the person’s body match their head or don’t they seem to fit?

– Who made the video? Who is the source?
