Homework - 164
from Teaching Learning Leading K-12 Hosted by voicEd Radio
Do you give homework? If so, do you know why you give homework? Today's discussion centers around questioning why we give homework. I talk about 3 great reasons for giving homework and 5 problematic reasons. Additionally, I speak to understanding that when homework is assigned you may not know who is actually doing the work (like a friend or a parent) as well as if the kids are simply doing the work to get it done or actually improving their understanding of the content. I also spend a little time around the choices that kids make when confronted with too much homework. I hope that you will revisit why you give homework and make sure that you are focused on good, appropriate practices. Thanks for listening. Length: 19:07
