How would you propose that students practice learning and studying on their own, outside of a classroom setting, without homework?

I don't propose that children do any of that. That's what high school is for, and 4 years of "practice" is more than enough.

Some of the reason schools start homework so early is that parents demand it. I've seen parents complain that a first grade class isn't academic enough because the teacher didn't assign enough homework.
