Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this action research project was to increase homework completion through the use of motivating strategies. There were approximately 75 students, 100 parents, and three teacher researchers involved in this study. The three intervention strategies used were 15 minutes of class time, extrinsic rewards, and assignment notebook checks. This study was conducted from August 2008 through May 2009. The intended outcome of this research project was to increase students''motivation to complete homework. The teacher researchers have noticed a change within the family structure. The changes that have occurred include an increase in single-parent homes, a rise in non-English speaking homes, and pressure on students to excel outside of school. These changes have forced many students to choose between homework, family, and society. The targeted students exhibited a lack of homework completion, which negatively affected the students in the classroom. There were many causes for this issue. The teacher researchers focused on the lack of motivation among students to complete their homework. After the three teacher researchers completed the intervention strategies in their classrooms, they compared their results to the baseline data. The data showed that intervention two, Extrinsic Rewards, resulted in the highest increase in student homework completion. Intervention one, 15 Minutes of Class Time, and intervention three, Assignment Notebooks, did not yield as large of an increase in homework completion. Seven appendixes are included: (1) Parent Pre-Survey; (2) Student Pre-Survey; (3) Teacher Researcher's Homework Check-Off Log-Weekly; (4) Teacher Researcher's Homework Ticket Reward Log-Weekly; (5) Teacher Researcher's Homework/Assignment Notebook Log-Weekly; (6) Parent Post-Survey; and (7) Student Post-Survey.

Hein and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An action research project report was complete to discuss how homework completion and motivation is an ongoing issue and debate within the public schools. This is especially true in the middle school setting. The teacher researchers of this project chose to conduct a study in order to increase homework completion and motivation of middle school students using Teacher Researcher B's reading/language arts 6th grade classroom. The study consisted of 30 student participants and took place during the time period of January 29, 2007, until May 9, 2007. During the teacher researchers' review of the literature, numerous influences were revealed as to why homework completion and motivation is an area of frustration for teachers, parents, and students. These influences include poor student habits and study skills, lack of parental support and/or understanding, poor environment, parent complaints of schools and teachers, teacher concerns and lack of communication between home, school, and community, and finally the special education community of learners. Teacher researchers used parent and student surveys to document evidence of the problem. There were three interventions/strategies the teacher researchers used for this action research project. Homework charting/graphing was used for each class. The students graphed their homework completion with teacher supervision on a daily basis. A ticket/reward system was implemented in conjunction with the graphing/charting giving the students an opportunity to earn prizes/rewards for homework completion. The parents were apprised weekly of their child's progress by receiving a home note on a weekly basis, outlining their child's weekly progress, or lack thereof. The teacher researchers found the action research project to have both positive and negative results. Though student motivation increased at the beginning of the intervention, motivation seemed to decline by the end of the intervention. The teacher researchers believe this decline to be attributed to the intervention occurring toward the end of the school year. A lack of teacher consistency and enthusiasm toward the end of the intervention and a lack of parent consistency in responding to home notes were other factors believed to contribute to the lack of student motivation. The most positive feedback of the project came from parents. Parents responded positively to the consistent feedback concerning their child's progress. Though the teacher researchers would change several areas of the interventions, the weekly parent communication would be an intervention they would continue and recommend. Appended are: (1) Teacher Survey; (2) Consent to Participate; (3) Parent Survey; (4) Teacher Record Book; (5) Teacher Researcher's Weekly Log; (6) Student Survey; (7) Behavior Modification Chart; and (8) Weekly Home Note. (Contains 4 tables and 35 figures.) [Master of Arts Action Research Project, Saint Xavier University.].

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two intervention strategies were employed in my high school science classes to determine their effects on homework completion. The first strategy required students to keep an academic planner which would help them to be more aware of homework assignments and due dates. The second strategy was providing homework reminder slips to students that were missing work to see if the reminders would improve total homework completion rates. Rewards were given to students that completed their planners as well as those students that had all work completed for each week. The first intervention strategy did not improve timely homework completion and the students did not feel that the academic planner was a motivating factor for homework completion. The homework reminder slips along with rewards for completed work fared much better and the students approved of this strategy. Most classes showed an improvement in timely homework completion.

Book excerpt: While there are some books and articles about the importance of understanding in-school learning style and the benefits in achievement and attitude toward learning that accrue from matching learning style to learning environment, this is the first book on homework style. Homework style is the personal preference for doing the tasks assigned by teachers and learning new material outside of the formal school setting. Learning style and homework style have been found to be related yet empirically distinguishable, indicating the unique situation the home variable plays in forming individual learning styles. This guide will help parents, teachers, and counselors understand homework style and gain an awareness of the relationship between homework style, homework achievement, and school achievement.

This book was released on 2010-01-13 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2007 in the subject Pedagogy - General, grade: 1,0, Samford University (Orlean Bullard Beeson School of Education & Professional Studies), course: The professional secondary language Arts/English teacher, language: English, abstract: This paper is part of an observation as a clinical experience requirement of the course listed on the title page. It takes place at a High School in a 10th grade history class under Mr.E.’s leadership. The class, which I attend twice a week for one period, consists of 16 students (eight of them are male, eight female). As far as I’m concerned, I am a German exchange student spending one semester at Samford University with the main objective of improving my English since I’m going to be a secondary school teacher back in Germany. English is – alongside with German and Physical Education – one of the subjects that I’m going to teach. This semester is my fourth one, so I would be pretty much a sophomore in the American Educational System. However, the German Educational System works quite differently which is the reason for still having approximately four years of study to complete. Before being able to start an action research, the researcher has to identify a research question. It is raised the question which matters could be of interest. After having led a conversation with my mentor about an interesting field of investigation, we came to the conclusion that the completion of homework was an important concern. He told me about his difficulties in coping with this problem in 10th grade in history. He was willing to figure out a solution to the apparently big problem. Since some students don’t do any homework at all regularly, it is definitely a problem worth taking into focus. There are multiple ways to deal with unsatisfactory homework behavior of students. Punishment in form of extra work is probably one of the most common means to encounter it. Yet, multiple generations of teachers have already applied this measure, but the problem has, quite obviously, not vanished. Therefore, this method doesn’t seem to work appropriately. This is, in my opinion, due to the fact that students are only extrinsically motivated in this case. Another example of extrinsic motivation is rewarding. Yet it may be helpful in some cases, it is still a means of extrinsic motivation and therefore not last perpetual wisdom. Extrinsic motivation is not a long-ranging solution to the problem. There are other options to take.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this action research project report was to increase the homework completion rate of middle school students through the use of interventions. The participants in this study came from one public middle school. The participants were thirty-four 6th grade students in language arts, respectively. The intervention took place from September 10, 2007 through November 20, 2007. The targeted students at one public middle school in northwestern Illinois exhibited low levels of homework completion. The teacher researchers surveyed teachers, parents, and students, in addition to completing teacher observation checklists for each of the targeted students. The teacher survey asked questions pertaining to students turning in homework, and receiving consequences for not doing so. The parent survey revealed that students do not bring homework assignments home but do ask for assistance when needed. The student survey indicated that parents helped their child with their homework assignments less than half the time (zero to three days a week). Also, students indicated that they fill out their planners most of the time (four to five days a week). The teacher observation checklists showed that incomplete homework assignments were a significant problem for the targeted students. One of the interventions that was chosen to implement was positive reinforcement through the Gotcha system. This intervention has been referred to as a way for students to receive positive feedback, as well as a way to motivate students to increase their rate of homework completion. Another intervention chosen to use included increasing parental involvement in the completion of student homework through the use of daily homework planners. This intervention has been used as a strategy that has led to increased parental involvement, and an increase in the homework completion rate (Bryan & Burstein, 2004, Teacher). This intervention involved students writing assignments in their homework planners daily and taking the planners home to have them signed by their parents. By doing this students and parents were establishing a homework completion routine. The teacher researchers found that the use of Gotcha's and student planners seemed to positively effect the parent involvement rate. However, the percentage of incomplete assignments increased by seven percent. The teacher researchers also found that fewer students asked their parents for help with their homework. The teacher researchers believe that the use of planners helped students to organize their homework, and made parents more aware of homework assignments. Six appendixes are included: (1) Student Survey; (2) Parent Survey; (3) Teacher Survey; (4) Teacher observation Log; (5) Sample of Gotcha; and (6) Homework Planner. (Contains 2 tables and 22 graphs.)

This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this Research Topic is to analyze and identify the main family and contextual variables that are involved in the process of carrying out homework. This will require studying the role played by teachers, students, and families in order to ensure that schoolwork is a useful learning tool. Although the role of the student is, obviously, crucial in homework, research has focused on the cumulative time spent by the student carrying out homework. However, the time spent on homework is not in itself evidence of the student’s involvement nor is time spent indicative of quality time. Indeed, an excess of time can sometimes denote low competence in a field of knowledge, while spending less time on homework could be indicative of high competence. It is more likely that a high dedication of time spent on homework reflects high motivation, or comprehension deficits, rather than commitment to learning or academic motivation. In tandem with the role of the student, teachers, as responsible for prescribing homework assignments for students, also become central players in the process of completing homework assignments. The decisions that teachers make about homework prescriptions, and the amount and type of tasks they set, will determine, to a large extent, the quality of the homework process including the student’s motivation and the student’s level of engagement with homework. Furthermore, the fact that homework is useful, interesting and motivating for students, will depend on how the teacher prescribes those tasks and the connection established with classroom learning. Teacher feedback also acquires particular relevance for this point by helping the students to accurately estimate the quality of their progress and overcome the difficulties they may have encountered in carrying out their homework. Lastly, the effectiveness of teacher feedback depends on its contribution to the student’s educational progress and how that student will perform in the future. In addition to the student who performs the task and the teacher who prescribes and corrects it, we must not lose sight of parents’ role. Although there are discrepancies regarding the role that parents play in relation to homework, it is evident that their implication has important consequences not only on the final result of those tasks but also on the very process of carrying them out. Everything seems to indicate that the family environment and, more specifically, the support and feedback provided by parents is a factor that can determine the involvement of students in school duties. In this way, providing emotional support encouraging children to get involved can contribute positively to improving their motivation and interest in the performance of homework. The objective of this Research Topic is to provide researchers and professionals in psychology and education settings with some of the most recent empirical evidence regarding the homework process, its prescription and correction. Overall, we aim to cease making homework a source of conflict and controversy at the socio-educational level in order to provide useful instruments for improving the quality of student learning. This work was developed with the financing of the research projects EDU2013-44062-P (MINECO), EDU2017-82984-P (MEIC).

This book was released on 2013-08-16 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for new and creative ways of engaging and motivating your learners? If so, then this is the essential resource for you! Homework for Learning takes a unique approach to homework arguing that it is more than a finishing-off activity and should be inextricably linked to the teaching and learning that takes place in the classroom. Homework - when imaginatively and considerately deployed - can be carried out anywhere, not just within the home, and can promote independent learning; assist in the development of generic skills; and free up time for further work on the curriculum. The authors present over 300 practical strategies for homework to motivate and energize learners. These ideas draw on expert practice and are underpinned by a range of educational theories on learning. The accessible ideas include: Strategies to ensure high homework completion rates Homework for creative starter activities Ideas for fun and effective exam preparation Technologically innovative and e-learning strategies Coursework and project preparation Marking and assessment strategies Off-site homework activities to support school trips and visits Whether you are training to teach in mainstream or post-compulsory education, or are a more experienced teacher, this book encourages you to experiment with a variety of novel strategies for homework. "Homework for Learning is an important read for both new and experienced teachers looking for inspiration. Written in an engaging and highly accessible manner the authors offer a persuasive and powerful argument as to why teachers need to consider the transformative potential of learning outside of the classroom. The practical strategies offered are underpinned by grounded evidence and a research base which encourages us to rethink our homework practices. The emphasis upon 'looking back and looking forwards', supported by critical reflective practice, action research and ongoing professional development is timely. This will be a 'must read' text in my institution." Julie Hughes, Head of Department (Post Compulsory Education), University of Wolverhampton, UK "Within the first few pages Gerry and Warren’s book captured my interest. Firstly they openly talk about the problems around homework, something I could fully empathise with. Then they discuss how homework can be used more creatively to support independent learning and learning that involves others in the process. This is not only a very practical book with extensive guidance on good practice for teachers, it also draws on literature that challenges some of our pre-conceptions about what homework should 'look like'. Through a series of activity sheets, suggestions, thinking points and professional development ideas, the authors challenge teachers to think more carefully about the reasons for setting homework, what they are trying to achieve from it and how they might best support students. What is more, this book is stuffed full of fun ideas for homework that represent innovative approaches likely to engage the interest of students and move beyond the traditional essay (although this is also included). Not only will these suggestions improve the experiences of students, it will also be much more fun for teachers in giving and utilising the homework set." Dr Linda Hammersley-Fletcher, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK "This is a really useful book. Written in a clear style, Gerry Czerniawski and Warren Kidd draw on a wealth of classroom experience and research to share some powerful ideas about learning and teaching. For this book is not just about homework but about how to teach so that children learn. It has heaps of tips and strategies underpinned by big educational ideas that will really excite all sorts of teachers, not just those new to the profession, and get pupils engaged. Inspirational!"

Book excerpt: There are many reasons to be curious about the way people learn, and the past several decades have seen an explosion of research that has important implications for individual learning, schooling, workforce training, and policy. In 2000, How People Learn: Brain, Mind, Experience, and School: Expanded Edition was published and its influence has been wide and deep. The report summarized insights on the nature of learning in school-aged children; described principles for the design of effective learning environments; and provided examples of how that could be implemented in the classroom. Since then, researchers have continued to investigate the nature of learning and have generated new findings related to the neurological processes involved in learning, individual and cultural variability related to learning, and educational technologies. In addition to expanding scientific understanding of the mechanisms of learning and how the brain adapts throughout the lifespan, there have been important discoveries about influences on learning, particularly sociocultural factors and the structure of learning environments. How People Learn II: Learners, Contexts, and Cultures provides a much-needed update incorporating insights gained from this research over the past decade. The book expands on the foundation laid out in the 2000 report and takes an in-depth look at the constellation of influences that affect individual learning. How People Learn II will become an indispensable resource to understand learning throughout the lifespan for educators of students and adults.
