20:00:14 ICTmagicGood evening. I would like to start very general. Do
you set homework and why? #ukedchat

20:01:07 dandesignthink#ukedchat it's better to encourage students to takework home (optional) rather than homework(compulsory)
20:01:15 rainbowcat23We set homework to consolidate learning that hastaken place that week #ukedchat
20:01:48 Jivespin The purpose of homework for me is to extendlearning opportunities, practice skills and to uidestudents in reading more widely #ukedchat
20:01:51 rainbowcat23 Quite boring though! #ukedchat
20:02:03 Payno04#ukedchat Homework is a great tool for learning aslong as it's appropriate and designed to stimulate andsupport children's learning!!!
20:02:23 jamesdhobsonI would love to dispense with homework. But there istoo much to do. You need to change what schools do
first #ukedchat20:02:39 Dandan7171

20:03:14 ICTmagic@dandesignthink How do we ensure that all childrenwork 'enough' if they do it independently? Should wetry? #ukedchat
20:03:15 amyparkinbed @ukedchat @davidbondpgce you might be interestedin this #ukedchat about homework!
20:03:30 JivespinBeen considering the Lazy Teaching method of tapashomework - give students a choice of tasks tocomplete. HW is then personalised #ukedchat

20:04:43 mrpeel#ukedchat Homeworkshould never be set for thesake of it . It should always try to develop interestand thought
20:04:50 ICTmagic @ThisIsLiamM So it builds home/school links - Good.What is the educational value? #ukedchat20:04:52 StephenLev @ethinking I'll hold your coat. #ukedchat
20:05 lizzie_h18i do think reading homework is important right from anearly age #Ukedchat
20:05:01 PhilippaIsom#ukedchat we do not grade homework for reportingpurposes, only effort. Students have vast differencesin access to resources at home

20:05:39 mattjamestwit@ICTmagic it's been rebranded as homelearning atmy school, nothing's really changed but I thinkhighlights what it should achieve #ukedchat

20:05:41 PhilippaIsom @Jivespin is this lazy? It's how I do it :-) #ukedchat
20:05:43 bekblaytonProblem with homework is those children who wouldbenefit most become turned off quickly because theydon't/can't do complete it #ukedchat
20:05:53 PhysicsAndy @ICTmagic imagine students leaving school withouthaving had the chance to practise independentlearning outside of a classroom #ukedchat
20:06:04 davidhunter#ukedchat manga high for maths is terrific.anythingsimilar for spelling?
20:06:10 Educationchat#ukedchat Homework is the biggest drag of the weekfor me - to set it and mark it. The only point of it is toappease parents.
20:06:10 mrpeel
#ukedchat @JohnTomsett brilliant comment -never
set HWK that really matters for a low achieving group- misquote, sorry.
20:06:11 Carlsberg40RT @ianaddison: RT @ianaddison: @ICTmagic yes,because I'm told to #ukedchat. Workbooks full ofmaths and literacy worksheets in year 3-4
20:06:12 Edutronic_Net
Now that my students blog instead of book,homework and classwork are all part of a seamlessprocess http://t.co/yWeIbh43#ukedchat
20:06:14 ICTmagic How can we ensure that HW is relevant and useful tothe children and the teacher for teaching? #ukedchat@PeterSpencer88
20:06:28 Payno04#ukedchat If homework is set for the sake of it, itwon't have the desired effect and could have anegative effect on children's attitudes!!
20:06:30 ianaddison#ukedchat we do half hour each for maths andliteracy homework per week, then this is then markedby LSAs
20:06:35 Showmyhomework#ukedchat is homework consistently set across yourschool?
20:06:39 ThisIsLiamM@ICTmagic Give home the opportunity to follow upon learning / share in learners development.#UKEdChat
20:06:42 JivespinFor Sixth Form students, reading homeworks arecrucial. Helps get in the habot of wider reading forHigher Ed #ukedchat

20:07:11 MyersClaireWould like to work on getting students to set theirown HW so they own it #ukedchat
20:07:14 rkieran
#ukedchat Not done it but, for hwk ch'n study the
same 'thing' from YR to Y6. Whatever they'reinterested in. Knowledge builds to expertise
20:07:14 day_tom@helen2112 #ukedchat - same here. Meant to set1/2 hour for every hour teach. KS3 and 4. Too muchfor kids and to much for me to assess.
20:07:25 Jivespin@PeterSpencer88 Oh yes - must have a link toprevious learning or it has little value #ukedchat
20:07:29 ICTmagic@SamRowley How would that change the type ofhomework you set if it were set less frequently?#ukedchat
20:07:36 mrpeel#ukedchat key questions: who actually did it? Howlong did it take? I try to avoid writing tasks because Icannot know these answers.
20:07:38 dandesignthink#ukedchat how about tutors only setting homework?Not for subjects, but for student development? Areasstudents are interested in?
20:07:40 davidhunter@lizzie_h18 it's funny but I always thought my ownsons reading homework got in the way of meteaching him to read #ukedchat
20:07:47 lizzie_h18
we gave a blank speech bubble for homework - forchildren to talk to their parents about what they hadlearnt in Y2 - worked well#Ukedchat
20:07:54 SamRowley@ICTmagic we are forced to set hmk everyday. Fartoo much IMO, couple of times a week would bebetter #ukedchat
20:07:55 bekblaytonSometimes I would send home speech bubbles with'discussion' points - reviewing concepts or topic
questions #ukedchat

20:08:29 MrsFolkerCES#ukedchat throughout school (rec-y6) everyone'shomework is open-ended: show me what you knowabout... Pupils then assess each others.
20:08:32 ethinking#ukedchat @StephenLev homework: totalitarian mindcontrol allowing schools to delude themselves theyknow better than all families
20:08:50 Showmyhomework@eyebeams #ukedchat great question! One of thebiggest complaints from sec schools is abouthomework from parents!
20:08:50 Educationchat#ukedchat The number of times parents havecompleted homework for their children...
20:08:55 mikeatedji#ukedchat homework is an opportunity for parents toparticipate in their child' school life/learning.
20:08:56 Payno04@virkjay @Magicfullstop A book voucher?! Really?!Secondary or primary?! #ukedchat
20:09:06 davidhunter#ukedchat that Sutton trust report found homework tohave minimal impact on learning. Have to say it reallydepends on what is set.
20:09:15 kvnmcl#ukedchat Homework is a complete and utter wasteof everyone's time. Pointless in every way possible.
20:09:15 PeterSpencer88@Jivespin will definitely look into it. How often do youset this sort of homework? #ukedchat
20:09:17 ICTmagicMany tweeps are saying that they *have to* sethomework. How would you do it if you had thefreedom to do so? #ukedchat

as apposed to homework?
20:09:22 lizzie_h18@davidhunter i think its the only chance a lot of ourchildren have to share a book with their parentsthough sadly #Ukedchat
20:09:34 Educationchat #ukedchat Spelling tests! I mean...the kids learn themfor the test but then promptly forget! What is thepoint?
20:09:35 mrpeelAs parent and teache ri'd prefer 1 extra hour per dayand no HWK - or build in daytime slot in school for"private work" #ukedchat
20:09:45 teacherofy5we set homework - parents expect - and I believe it'sanother way of reinforcing what they've learnt inclass-also school told #ukedchat
20:09:47 jobadge #ukedchat chn share with peers, vote on best 1.Homework club provided twice a week for chn to doin school if no support at home.

20:10:09 JivespinIndustrial town/football nickname homework taskhttp://t.co/PmKTc9nm - just a little HW task I setrecently for KS3 History #ukedchat
20:10:10 Edutronic_NetI see homework as an opportunity for students toengage with each other, a lot of it is voluntary EG:http://t.co/rO1eufUB #ukedchat
20:10:15 Educationchat#ukedchat And Ofsted last week criticised me for nordifferentiating my spellings 3 ways for homework... Imean of all things.
20:10:17 DyslexicIT#ukedchat how about students getting into the habitof making their own PLN? Their own interests inmind. thinking & social media skills
20:10:24 mikeatedji #ukedchat Obviously there shouldn't be compulsion

20:10:58 mrpeel@Educationchat tragic #ukedchat hwk, homeworkand getyourfathertodothiswork, I assume
20:11 Emmk30#ukedchat if homework is set, it should be treated asbeing as important as the lesson.

but has no concept of time spent marking. Smallclass of 24, if 5 mins each=2 hours
20:11:38 day_tom@ianaddison @ICTmagic #ukedchat = Would sethwk but more independent - Stuff not in curriculum toexpand knowledge. Not just regurgitate
20:11:39 mrjmuttonWe dont set "homework" (tasks that are done just athome) but give students too much to do in theirlesson so they need to work #ukedchat

20:11:44 mrpeel@ianaddison #ukedchat If I set it and they do not doit, I sanction them - seems obvious. Try not to setHWK that is vital for progress
