  Case: Homework Help
A girl in the class I am observing never does her homework. When asked about this, she says it's because no one is there to help her in the home. What can be done about this from an intern's perspective?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Give her opportunities to complete homework during the school day. She may not have parents available to help her after school. She may also simply need to build her self confidence. Some students do not attempt to figure things out on their own because they are too dependent on the teacher or another adult. Perhaps some instruction in problem solving and strategic thinking could help.

Comments: My only issue with this solution is that in today's school system it is not necessarily viable to take time out of the school day for one student to do their homework.
