Teachers need to be more aware of students’ needs. Students don’t take a majority of their classes per choice, rather, they take them to meet graduation, special diploma required classes, or even just to qualify for certain tests. While they are students who take certain classes because they genuinely have an interest in the field or topic, teachers need to be made aware of students’ various classes and points of focus. While 3 hours, or whatever is deemed as a "reasonable" amount, of homework for a certain class per week, may not sound like a problematic quantity for students, teachers must remember that: students are constantly changing their focuses’ between 8 classes, students are not always as proficient at disciplines as teachers might expect, and just because it took you 3 hours to do, doesn’t mean it takes everyone or even a majority of people in class that amount of time to do. A teacher is in fact the very definition of a poor subject for testing in this regard. A vast portion of their time is spent into thinking on the field by far more than any student, they are by far more well experienced, and finally a teacher is by far less stressed in conducting their testing, as the assignment will have little to no impact on their life.
