What is the rationale for homework? How can you design meaningful
homework, and how can changing homework influence your practice?
Homework Done Right: Powerful Learning in Real Life Situations
provides answers to these questions and other issues surrounding
the hot topic of homework and the impact it can have on both
students and teachers. Written in an accessible, practical style,
this resource provides a general overview of homework and a brief
look at traditional approaches, along with concrete examples of how
homework can be made meaningful. The authors take an in-depth look
at authentic homework-assignments that are engaging, motivational,
and promote real-life applications of knowledge leading to deeper
levels of learning. The book is filled with concrete examples
across grade levels that demonstrate the process of matching
assignments to the goals and major understandings associated with
specific course content. The authors invite classroom teachers and
building leaders to rethink out-of-school time and reclaim at least
part of it as learning time in order to regain spirit and passion
for teaching and learning. Readers will find: - Guidance for
designing out-of-school assignments that are authentic, meaningful,
and tied to real-life experience - Sample homework assignments for
various grade levels and subject areas, examples of student work,
reflection questions, discussion prompts, protocols, and
reproducible forms - Richly-detailed vignettes describing teachers'
evolving beliefs and practices around homework.
