Abstract

Homework (HW) is one of the most common school activities among parents, students and teachers. However, the need to assign HW to students has been extensively debated. Although there exist arguments use of HW in academic settings, such as when Time magazine, in 1999, warned that HW could disturb students and their families routines, opinions towards HW are primarily favorable; the use of HW is supported by numerous authors and is acknowledged as an indicator of successful schools and students. Doing HW is aimed at improving students’ study skills and their attitudes towards future work, as well as teaching students that learning takes place both inside and outside of the school setting. Moreover, those who favor assigning of HW argue that doing HW improves students’ academic achievement and fosters their autonomy once they are stimulated to self-regulate their study behavior responsibly.
