Answer to Question 1

Researchers reported significant differences in childhood school routines and parents' attitudes and beliefs between American and Asian students. In American classrooms, less time was found to be devoted to the study of mathematics, and more time was spent in groups versus receiving direct instruction from teachers. American students spent less time doing homework, and their parents and peers expected less of them than is expected of Asian students by their parents and peers.
