| Abstract | Opinions vary on whether or not homework has positive effects on achievement. In the literature, the author found six studies conducted between 1987 and 2003 that compared homeworkers with no-homeworkers, and equated students by using either: (1) random assignments of students to conditions; or (2) statistical controls or by matching a student in one group with a similar student in the other group while eliminating students who did not have a good match. The results provided a clear picture that homework can be effective in improving students' scores on unit tests, that is, the class tests that are administered at the end of a topic unit. Second-grade students who did home-work did better than no-homework peers on number places; those in third and fourth grade did better on English skills and vocabulary; those in fifth grade, on social studies; high school students, on American history; and twelfth graders, on Shakespeare. Across five studies, the average (fiftieth-percentile) homework doer had a higher unit test score than 73 percent of students not doing homework. However, correlational studies suggest the homework-achievement link for young children on broader measures of achievement appears to be weak. (ERIC). |
