Homework is repetitive practice and a possibility to apply what is learned
'as an extension of the classroom' which 'provides opportunities for students to
deepen their understanding understanding of the content and gain proficiency
of the skills (Pitler, H. etal, 2007, pg187).
Students can complete their homework and practice various skills by through

Through the use of technologies the computer provides a whistle or bell sound
just as a classroom teacher would give a word of praise for a job well done.
