Should homework be banned
ORAL PRESENTATION BY FORM FOUR STUDENTS OF SMK AGAMA (P) ALAWIYAH KANGAR. RELEVANT CONTENTS OF ARGUMENTS. Consider to correct the grammatical errors when using this material.
Homework should be banned
Homework should not be banned according to the document. It argues that homework increases mental ability and intelligence as studies have shown people who do more homework perform better. Homework also helps students work at their own pace independently, developing important skills unlike in a classroom. Finally, homework provides something productive and stimulating for students to do after school rather than unproductive activities, and helps maintain a balance between education, sports, and socializing.
Reflect
The document discusses the author's experience learning design thinking through a class. The author struggled at first to come up with a problem statement and ideas but realized they learned a lot. The three key takeaways are to empathize with others, write down all ideas related to a problem, and that learning continues beyond college. The author plans to share what they learned with Sunday School teachers to make lessons more meaningful for kids.
Aced and expectations assembly
The document outlines the vision and expectations for a school using the ACED framework. The framework focuses on Assessment, Creativity, Engagement, and Differentiation in lessons. It also details the school's high expectations for students, including being punctual, wearing uniform, taking pride in work, and not disrupting others. Revision strategies are also discussed, emphasizing interleaving topics, using flashcards, and creating mind maps with keywords and images to aid recall.
The New Teacher
The document provides advice for new teachers in 10 points. It acknowledges that new teachers will make mistakes but should appear confident. While a strict demeanor was once advised, teachers should now be themselves and develop engaging lessons. When unsure of an answer, it's okay to consult resources. Students prefer structure and challenging work, so teachers should question practices and encourage students' questioning. Teachers should find validation from positive student outcomes rather than always seeking praise from others.

Learning to learn will teach you the scientifically proven methods of learning which will make learning fun. It will also give some techniques of learning to have long lasting memory with some fun and interesting facts.
Why homework should be banned
This document discusses arguments for banning homework. It provides 17 facts supporting this position, including that students are given too much homework, which stresses them out and provides no real educational benefits. It takes away from family time, sleep, and other activities. Too much homework can negatively impact test scores while also threatening students' mental health. However, the document also notes potential downsides to eliminating homework, such as increased screen time, and benefits like developing time management, independence, and research skills. In conclusion, while homework is meant to be helpful, in excess it can decrease motivation and health instead of enhancing learning.

Abstract
Adapting Dale Carnegie's proven motivational techniques to the online classroom, faculty can ignite a passion for learning in an otherwise academically adrift generation of students.
The Homework Debate
The document discusses arguments for and against teachers giving homework. Key points include:
- Supporters argue homework fosters qualities like persistence and responsibility that help learning, and allows students to review material and practice skills. It also informs parents of classroom content.
- Critics argue homework can strain families, impede social/creative activities, and cause frustration if students don't understand concepts. It may also be completed by others instead of students. There is also debate around the empirical evidence that homework improves academic performance.
- The document outlines a teacher's homework policy including assigning amounts of homework based on grade level multiplied by 10 minutes, requiring signed agendas, and available homework help resources.
Intro to the AMP
The document describes The Andragogy Modified Project (AMP), which focuses on independent and small group learning rather than traditional teacher-centered pedagogy. The AMP model involves three aspects: 1) small study groups where students from different majors meet to discuss topics of their choosing, 2) weekly group meetings where students give presentations on topics they are passionate about, and 3) independent learning where students pursue self-directed learning on any topic at any time. The goal of the AMP is to encourage lifelong learning by teaching students to take ownership of their education.

Learning to study
- You are responsible for your own learning through hard work and discipline, though teachers can provide tools and opportunities.
- Studying is an important skill that improves with practice and the use of effective strategies like creating a weekly study plan, study aids, finding a quiet place to study, chunking materials, using a study partner, and attending tutorials.
- Implementing key study strategies such as creating a schedule, highlighting important materials, making flashcards, and separating content into small chunks can help students better learn and retain information.

Ways in Improving Studying Skills
This document outlines ways to improve studying skills through three main parts:
1. Creating an ideal study space by finding a quiet place free from distractions and having all necessary materials prepared.
2. Making studying easier on yourself by developing a calm attitude, getting enough sleep, creating a schedule, taking notes, forming study groups, and taking breaks.
3. Developing good study habits such as starting with harder subjects, using effective memorization techniques, focusing on areas needing more attention, improving test-taking strategies, asking questions, and getting help when needed.

The evening was an opportunity for staff from the different schools to meet each other, share ideas and teaching practice and participate in two sessions of four which they had prioritised themselves.
Brain based learning
Brain-based learning strategies leverage our understanding of human cognitive architecture to design effective learning paradigms. Emotions are more powerful than logic in influencing behavior. Effective learning requires engaging immersion, activating emotions through relaxed alertness, and enabling deliberate mindfulness through active processing. Study skills like taking good notes, keeping an organized binder, asking questions, and developing effective study methods like quizzing oneself are emphasized. Independent learning is characterized by asking questions and discussing topics with peers. Maintaining a study timetable, breaking tasks into smaller parts, and reducing stress through exercise are important for exam preparation.
Learning how to learn
This document provides tips for making college learning easier through effective study techniques. It recommends reading textbooks multiple times to fully understand and retain the material. Notes should be reviewed the same day as lectures to form "chunks" of knowledge through focused attention, understanding, and practice. Regular practice with techniques like flashcards and the Pomodoro method can help commit information to long-term memory. It's also important to leave time for "diffused mode" activities after study to allow the unconscious mind to process lessons before reviewing again later. Spacing out review over time through techniques like deliberate practice leads to better retention than cramming.
Six prinicples
This document outlines six principles of great teaching and learning:
1) Content knowledge - Teachers need strong knowledge of their subject and how students think about the content.
2) Quality of instruction - Effective questioning, reviewing previous learning, scaffolding new concepts, and using assessment improve learning.
3) Strategies with little impact - Praising low achievers, discovery learning, ability grouping, and focusing on motivation before content do not significantly help learning.
4) Differentiation and challenge - Teaching must be context-specific rather than following checklists, and challenge students long-term.
5) Explanations - They should connect to prior knowledge, consider cognitive limits, and make abstract ideas concrete.

Power up your brain: how to be a good learner
This document discusses how to be a good learner by focusing on three key components of the brain: focused vs diffuse thinking modes, the role of practice in forming memories, and how habits are formed. It explains that focused mode aids concentration while diffuse mode allows for creative thinking. Practice and repetition reinforce neural connections, forming long-term memories. Habits are cued routines that provide rewards to create beliefs driving repeated behaviors. Strategies like the Pomodoro technique optimize these components to improve learning.

This document outlines six principles to support great teaching and learning: 1) tying new concepts to prior knowledge, 2) accounting for limited working memory, 3) making abstract ideas concrete, 4) modeling thinking processes, 5) deliberate practice with guidance, and 6) retrieval practice to improve memory. Questioning should check for understanding, provoke deeper thinking, and increase participation through "cold calling". The overall message is that excellence and growth in students comes from calculated, great teaching.
