  Case: Homework
I teach a learning strategies class to high schoolers and I don't assign homework. I let the students use the class as a study hall for half of the class. DO I have to start assigning homework?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do not think you should start assigning homework but if they are not getting the material they should be I would start making assignment worth a grade. You could also do a point system in your class. So many students on task or having complete assignments will get an award. This could be more electronic time, or a free day or candy.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this. A point system gives students a manageable way to delegate their effort. It is also easier for a teacher to create high/low-value assignments.

Comments: I agree with this solution, if the students are doing well there isn't any reason to start assigning homework. Additionally, a point/reward system is highly effective way to ensure students are on task and displaying appropriate behaviors/growth.
