Case: Homework Issues
In one of my classes, on average, about 20 out of the 30 students never complete their homework. Though I feel homework is crucial for students to demonstrate what they have learned during class, I do not give it every night; only about 3 nights per week and when I do assign it, it is never more than ten problems (usually 5-8). I'll even give a student a 70 if they turn it in the next day as a late grade. I have had discussions with students both individually and as a whole group, sent home notice of concerns to parents to notify them that their students are not completing assignments. Still, halfway through the semester and nothing is changing. Is there anything different I can do on my part? Should I offer rewards even though homework is expected to be done? These are 10th graders... is there something else I could try?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Homework is a major issue for me as well. I want to assign it, but it gets done so infrequently that I wonder about the merits of it. Most of my homework now is classwork assignments that have not been done completed in class. I keep a record of all assignments turned in and show the students on a weekly basis. I continually hound them to complete their work and will do so all semester. As I show them grades, they often become more motivated to complete their work, but it is still a struggle. |
