EP 84 : Homework in Mainstream Schools
There are few more controversial issues in schooling than that of homework. Should it exist? How much is enough? Does it support progress or extinguish a love of learning?
Tonight we dig into the pros and cons of the way the mainstream school system approaches homework.
In this episode we reference the paper "Does High School Homework Increase
Academic Achievement?" by Charlene Marie Kalenkoski & Sabrina Wulff Pabilonia, and the article "Key Lessons: What Research Says About the Value of Homework" from the Reading Rockets site. We also mention Alfie Kohn and his classic educational text, "The Homework Myth".
