Unit 7: What's the use of Homework?

Pros and Cons of do the homework

            In any educational setting is used as part of student assign work or practice to do at home program, we call that task. This is usually a very controversial topic among students and teachers as they both have different views, and they are many ways to work for and against the same time.

            In most cases the task is usually very useful and indispensable in courses which involve mathematics or numeracy as this speeds up our mind and helps us to better analyze, but in other cases as it is the subject of letters are deemed unnecessary. Other aspects to be assessed is that often the tasks assigned to students very large projects and almost immediately a way, that's where you have to find a balance where there is a lot of work for the student.

            Consider important to try to do different and dynamic tasks where students can engage their creativity and their own opinion which is very important in the proper development and not be bored to take more interest to the subject.

             In some way or another work at home help us to review and practice on material covered in class. Which if I think they can be a useful tool, but well used.
