Benefits of Homework


Homework is a time honored practice that can enhance the development of skills and reinforce knowledge gained within the classroom when it is used effectively and appropriately. Some pupils feel down and stress when they hear “Homework”. Frankly, Homework is given not to make students stress, but to enhance them in memorizing the materials that they have learnt. Homework provides reinforcement, practice, application, transference, and enrichment of what is taught in class and requires students to integrate skills included in curricula. As children complete their assignments, they become more invested in and responsible for their learning. Doing assignment means they are thinking how to figure out and solve the task. The benefit of homework at the elementary level is to assist students in developing time organization, independent problem solving, and information processing skills.

Homework helps children develop beliefs about achievement and study habits, including the value of effort and the ability to cope with mistakes and difficulty. However, when they reach the high school level, the effects of homework are more impressive.

Homework, along with sports, special programs, and other activities, is an important component to the total educational program.
