Case: Homework-Yes or No?
I am not sure if homework is a good idea. Many of my students are home alone after school and do not have an adult at home to help them complete assignments, which results in the students not turning in complete assignment or any assignments at home. On the other hand I think it is important to spend a few minutes a night reviewing new information and homework is a good way to get kids to practice what they have learned in class. I am tired of fighting the homework battle. I would appreciate any insights on the viability of homework
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have also struggled with whether to give homework or not. I have come to the conclusion that it depends on the class and the students. If I am teaching an honors, AP, or other higher level class, then yes, I do give homework. Maybe not every day, but regularly. I do this for a couple of reasons. First, to review the material, second, to help them prepare for the independent work that is required in college. I think homework is a reasonable expectation to have in a class like this. However, if I am teaching a class that has students that struggle with the subject or lack motivation, I have found assigning homework to be nothing but an exercise in futility. So, I make sure to have students working hard during class time. This means I have every minute with them structured and if they don't finish a task during class I may require them to complete it for homework. If they don't do it for homework I may have them stay after school for tutoring. I have learned to be flexible with these classes and make decisions about what is critical for them to do. |

| Comments: This approach is appropriate, as the suggestion states, for AP classes. This teacher is using homework to complete class work, not for a review of information. |
