Think it depends on the kind of homework.

Like giving larger projects that allow students to devote time and study to it can be very beneficial, but the sheets of homework being given out everyday often has the opposite effect. Students just learn it to answer the questions and pass the test but never really commit it to memory.

You are right on that point. Having small sheets of homework until an exam to just vomit it on a paper is the worse thing. I'm a good example. I can't really recall most of the things I learned in highschool because this method was employed. It is beneficial on the short term, but not in the long term. Thank you for taking some time to give me your point of view:)
