Scholars paid attention to the relationship between homework frequency and academic performance, however, fewer of them noticed that the relationship might be nonlinear and may vary across different types of homework. This study aims at exploring the nonlinear relationship between the different types of homework frequency and mathematical academic…

Primary school homework is a common practice internationally, historically viewed as an independent child activity, but more recently recognised as a family accomplishment. Parental involvement in homework has been principally discussed in relation to general and fixed typologies, with parent behaviours categorised into pre-defined 'types'. This…

In the UK, primary homework is increasingly experienced as an integral part of parental responsibility and practices. However, its framing as a teacher-directed activity results in limited understanding of the social and relational dimensions of homework as it happens inside families. Conceptualising homework as a parent-child interaction, and…

This paper presents research findings on primary school students' awareness of the ethical aspects of using artificial intelligence (AI) tools for homework. The study used a self-constructed online questionnaire administered to 301 primary school students from grades five to eight attending two primary schools in Northwestern Croatia. The results…

This study examines the relationship between aspects of homework quality (embedding homework in the teaching-learning process and differentiation), students' anger experienced while completing German homework (language of instruction), and orthography performance. In total, 410 students from 23 eighth-grade classes in the Swiss canton of Bern have…

This study classified profiles of homework approaches involving eighth graders in China, regarding the likely combinations of surface and deep approaches to homework. Latent profile analysis (LPA) identified five distinct homework approach profiles: "High Deep/Low Surface", "Low Deep/Low Surface", "Moderate Deep/Moderate…

This study investigated the interrelationships among science process skills (SPSs) developed through home-based experiments (HBEs) and examined the correlation between SPS and science literacy (SL) among middle school students. Employing a qualitative correlational design, the study involved 77 seventh-grade students in Aceh Province, Indonesia.…

Homework is a common practice in US schools, with much discussion of its potential benefits and drawbacks. But there is more to learn about the complexities of teachers' beliefs about homework's purpose, benefits, and challenges. This interview study with elementary teachers uses a beliefs framework to explore beliefs and their influence on…

Early childhood preservice teachers often graduate with an incomplete understanding of the interplay between play and learning (Zhulamanova 2019; Zhulamanova and Raisor 2020). This mixed-methods pilot study aims to enhance early childhood teacher education by providing teacher candidates with playful, imaginative experiences through storytelling.…

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of the flipped learning model on students' academic achievement and its relationship with the permanence and effectiveness of the subjects learned. The research is in the sequential explanatory mixed method model. For the experimental study of the research, two classes with close socio-economic and…

MITCA (homework implementation method) was born with the purpose of turning homework into an educational resource capable of improving the self-regulation of learning and the school engagement of students. In this article, following the current theoretical framework, we evaluate the impact of the MITCA method on school engagement in students in…

This case study presents a multistage and multimodal methodology for conducting online research studies using video conferencing tools. We designed our methodology to capture how Brazilian schoolchildren (ages 9-11) transact, alone or with others, homework information-searching routines. Our case study presents the steps involved in designing an…

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of the flipped classroom model on the academic success and 21st century skills of middle school students in the unit of systems in our body. The study was conducted with 6th grade students studying in a state school in Istanbul. In the study, an applied study was conducted with two experimental…

In this study, we applied multilevel piecewise linear regression with a random-effects model under a Bayesian estimation framework to a total of 5,072 7th grade students in 35 schools to search for an optimum time in terms of the effect of homework time on student academic achievement. First, we found a nonlinear relationship between time spent on…

Parents are a key role player in the success of students in school and mathematics through assistance with homework. However parental involvement with mathematics homework and their contribution toward progress within the subject is an ongoing topic of debate for many different reasons. This article focuses on a Family Mathematics Programme (FMP)…
