Why is there so much more homework in primary school now than when I was in primary school in the 199s?

This situation exists in many places now, and I think there may be the following reasons:

1. Intensified education competition: Nowadays, the education competition is more intense than in the 199s, and parents hope their children can get better grades in their studies, so they may add more homework to their children.

2. Increase in course content: With the development of education, the course content is also increasing, which may lead to an increase in homework.

3. Changes in teaching methods: The current teaching methods may pay more attention to practice and exploration, which may require students to do more homework to consolidate and deepen their understanding.

4. Development of network technology: Nowadays, students have more resources to use, such as online homework and online learning, which may also increase the amount of homework.

5. Increased parental participation: Nowadays, parents may be more willing to participate in their children's learning and help them complete their homework, which may also increase the amount of homework.

However, too much homework may have a negative impact on children's physical and mental health, so parents and schools need to pay attention and adjust.
