Homework
• Purpose of homework should be identified and articulated.
• Homework should be commented on.• Parental involvement should be limited.• Amount of homework varies on age and
ability.
So how to we prepare students for homework?
Homework should help students
• Master a skill or process• Adapt and shape what they have learned• Increase their conceptual understanding of
skills and processes
How do we assure what we assign meets these needs?
Recommendations
• Use graphic organizers to represent knowledge
• Have students create physical models of knowledge
• Have student generate mental pictures• Use pictographs• Engage in kinesthetic activities
Using Smart Art Graphics in Word
Using Advance Google Searches
Mental images cuesPictographs images
Images for projects
• Upload from and save to your desktop • Edit anytime, from anywhere Pick who can
access your documents • Share changes in real time • Files are stored securely online • It's FREE!
Generalization from Researchon Providing Feedback
• Feedback should be “corrective” in nature. • Feedback should be timely. • Feedback should be specific to a criterion
(appearance, level of learning). • Students can effectively provide their own
feedback.
