Rhetoric Essay #2 Final Draft
Homework Hinders Hunger
The progress of public compulsory education is at a halt, frosted over by the heedless and shallow practice of homework, prohibiting learning. We live in this stationary hour as a result of a conceptual idea of success having been too indeterminate to survive actual application. Fickle are those convinced that more homework relates directly with advancement, for absolutely no evidence proves that children need or benefit academically from extra overload of assignments. In fact, the addition of after-school work subtracts vital hours of childhood, causing an expansive amount of suffering for not just youngsters in school, but their entire family. If no collective and persistent effort is invested immediately to jumpstart the clock, the future will undoubtedly hold catastrophic consequences for children who never had time to be so.
As this is true education, let us begin with a definition: definition, the fixed, clear meaning of a word, phrase, or idea. The majority of educators, too weak-minded and rigid to realize otherwise, have dubbed their twisted interpretation of education as its true definition. But there is only one meaning. Education is the yearning to discover what a person does not know he/she did not know. It is embracing a seeker mentality, it is a never-ending journey, and it is accepting to learn because of experience rather than banking on it. Any exercise stifling the natural and necessary craving to learn is sickening, for this habitual practice renders the true definition of education useless.
Can the homework problem be fixed? Luckily, we are clearly not dealing with the intelligent, for which I would place heavy shame upon for intentional carelessness. There is no tactful wit or clever plotting against youngsters by assigning homework, so teachers' intentions may in fact be satisfactory. Let us even deem them "loving fools". But regardless of motive, any and all who assign pointless busywork are hollow-headed enough to desperately require the right guidance. After all, how can adults possibly teach what they do not know or what they cannot define?
The most frightening truth is how greatly homework hinders hunger to learn. Most assignments sent home with children are designed to, as so-called teachers say "re-enforce" the lessons taught earlier in the day. Really, though, children are not fools. Regurgitating facts, memorization, and thoughtlessly copying down vocabulary words are not enlightening, it is not a task to look forward to, and most of all children eventually lose the desire to voluntarily seek out help. I welcome any argument able to assert how children would, in fact, find slogging away at worksheets appealing, but until then I need not say more. Ria K, a fifteen year-old sophomore, spends three to six hours a night on homework; the amount of time consistently matching other hig.

Home schooling Versus Traditional SchoolingAbstract
This research paper examines the difference between home schooling verses traditional schooling. It also unearths the deep rooted education concepts that brought about homeschooling. The study then describes why the number of parents choosing homeschooling as an educational option for their children is on the rise. This shift in educational options has in turn led to an increase in the popularity of home schooling. The paper will through analyses of the research, examine the causes of the current popular trends.
Children who are homeschooled are distinctively different from those who are traditionally schooled. This research paper shows that the level of success for children who are homeschooled gives a good agent for the home schooling type of education. Through research studies, this research paper will address other concerns which have been raised over time regarding success homeschooling. These concerns raised against home schooling are parental education levels and socialization, but research has proven that homeschooling as a form of education is very viable.

Discussion
There are options for parents when deciding on their children's education. In order to make a worthy educational decision, parents need to understand the facts that surround the options they have and the implications that accompany their decisions. Although there is no research clearly showing which option is more beneficial to students, an argument for traditional schooling is that parents will always reap the fruits of traditional schooling each and every day (McGrath, 2000). Children who are homeschooled are socially deprived and backward is a key argument raised by those who are opposed to homeschooling. A contrast to their argument, research gives the opposite. It shows that children who are homeschooled are in a better position socially (Taylor, 2001). Both homeschooling of children and traditionally schooling obviously has positive views.Homeschooling
Homeschooling is becoming more popular every day, with a growth rate of 7 to 15 percent per year. There are about two million children currently learning at home. Homes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
