    Homework is an extension of classroom learning that can benefit students in several ways: 1. Additional homework of 30 minutes per night can increase a student's GPA by half a point. 2. Homework serves four main functions: prelearning to introduce topics, checking understanding, practice of skills, and processing concepts through reflection and application. 3. For homework to be effective, teachers should establish clear purposes and guidelines, differentiate assignments, provide feedback, and support students through homework programs.

    “Homework is an extension of the classroom…”

    INTRODUCTION
    • Research has proven that every 30 minutes of
    additional home work a student does per night,
    his or her overall grade point average (GPA)
    increases about half a point. This means that if a
    student with a GPA of 2.00 Increases the amount
    of homework she does by 30 minutes per night,
    her GPA will rise to 2.50 (Keith T.Z. (1982)
    Students, for one reason or another, are not
    always happy with homework. But when done
    properly, homework leads to mastery of learning..
    FUNCTION HOMEWORK
    The homework is the last but not
    the least part of a lesson plan.
    What are the functions of
    homework ? Vatterott, author of
    ASCD member book “Rethinking
    Homework” (2009) cites four, as
    follows:
    1.PRELEARNING
    • The homework is a preparation for an in-
    depth discussion of the next lesson by
    getting an introduction or a background. It
    is also a way of finding out what students
    already knows about a topic or what they
    are interested to learn more about the topic
    by asking the students to write down
    questions about what they were assigned
    to read.
    2.CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING

    • By way of homework, teachers


    gain insight into student learning.
    Asking students to identify literary
    devices in a short story shows
    whether students understood the
    lesson on literary devices.
    3.PRACTICE
    • Homework is an opportunity for
    practice of rote skills such as
    multiplication tables, spelling words, or
    facts that need to be memorized for
    internalization and mastery. For
    homework to yield positive results,
    practice must be correct and must be
    distributed.
    4. PROCESSING
    • Homework is used when teachers
    want students to reflect on
    concepts discussed in class,
    integrate and apply learned
    concepts and skills in real life, and
    think of new questions.
    Guiding Principles in the use of Homework For the
    learners to get the most from homework, the
    following guiding principles may be of help:
    1.The purpose of homework and outcome of
    homework should be identified and articulated.

    2.Homework tasks should be differentiated by:


    a.) difficulty or amount of work
    b.) by the amount of scaffolding provided and
    c.) learners’ learning style or interest.

    3. Parent involvement in homework should be kept to


    a minimum. The role of parents in doing homework
    should only be facilitative.
    4. If homework is assigned, it should be
    commented on. Of what use is homework if it is
    not read, evaluated and returned?

    5. Move from grading to checking. Focus on


    feedback (Vatterott, 2009). Should homework be
    graded? No! with Guskey”s (2003) observation:
    “Grades on homework often get in the way of
    learning ,demotative students, and create power
    struggles between students and teachers and
    between students and parents.”

    6. Established and communicate a homework


    policy.
    • 7. Established a homework support programs. During
    PTCA meetings share tips on how to make homework
    time successful such as the following:

     Designate a well-lit space for homework’


     Establish time to do the work use the calendar to plan
    when the work can be done if schedules vary.
     Ask students specifics about the school day and what
    needs to be done each night.
    Tell them the numerous benefits of homework and provide
    statement that parents can use with their child.
    Assure parents that you want to hear if the student needs
    a lot of coaching from parents.
    THANK YOU!!
