2. Homework
is good for students in improving their
knowledge after studying the material at school.
For some students homework is very annoying,
but for some other students, homework is needed
to applicate the knowledge that they have
studied.
According
to
Jeremy
Harmer,
“Teachers
sometimes give out homework tasks with no
special enthusiasm, students don’t always do it
and teachers don’t especially enjoy marking it”.
4. Make it fun
Some students are much more likely to be
engaged if the tasks are varied, and if the teacher
tries to make them fun.
We
can give out homework tasks in envelopes or
send them in email,
We
can have students do some serious things,
but include some slightly crazy tasks too,
Homework
will then become something that
students want to be involved in.
5. Respect Homework
Some teachers have difficulty in working up any
enthusiasm for setting and marking homework,
and students sense it.
When
the homework is given to the teacher on
time, she/he has to mark and hand it back. So
students will get something like reward to engaged
their interests in studying.
6. Make Post-Homework Productive
Teachers
don’t let their students giving the
homework without any corrections and
feedback when it handed-back.
It
is often a good idea to get students to
correct each other’s homework, provided that
this is done in supportive and cooperative
way.
Support
the students to do their homework
and give some reward for them.
