Alternatives to Homework The Great Debate: Alternatives to Homework Presented by: Kelly Brock and Carrie Honeycutt, Stanly County Schools

Things that make you go…. HUMMMM!

Session Goals: Defining DEBATE Analyze Research Explore Alternate Ideas HW Sort Discuss Take-Aways

Traditional or Non-traditional Defining the debate Traditional or Non-traditional For or Against THIS NOT THAT

So…is there a way we can satisfy both sides of the debate? Analyze Research Debate has been around a long time. Support for or against has varied throughout decades. Recent research shows support for both sides. Quality vs quantity of homework Homework that benefits or is busy work? Homework can teach more than content…time management, responsibility. Teachers within same school or district vary in their opinion. So…is there a way we can satisfy both sides of the debate?

Alternate ideas for homework Refer to handout for thousands of ideas. Think about your topic. What can students do at home that can reinforce idea? Can they easily integrate into their afternoon routine? Does it require easily accessible materials? What task can others help with? Is this “natural or normal” for them…hidden learning? What can we do with it later (tomorrow, next week, as an adult)? Does this topic even need to be reinforced? Lets examine one alternate idea…cooking.

It’s your turn to use your noodle! Read the HW assignment cards. Discuss with your group and sort them into the Venn Diagram. Use the notecard to create an example of your own for Traditional and Non-traditional.
