#Edchat is a hashtag, a movement—it is a weekly organized Twitter discussion of educators and people interested in education that meet virtually from all over the world. #Edchat serves as a conversation thread on Twitter and is also used for organized weekly discussions.
“The potential that #VR has for boosting student engagement and, therefore, scholastic performance, can’t be understated. In a world that’s increasingly based on experience, the value of virtual reality continues to grow.” 🎓 // #arvrinedu#edtech#edchathttps://t.co/JiydWeZh99

Big deal for #edtech? “ If a school wants to invest in personalized learning programs that are adaptive to the unique needs of each student, Title I can now be a part of that conversation, not a barrier to it. That’s a big deal.” #edchat#personalizedlearning
That is frustrating, but here is our topic: Should there be restrictions on the amount of homework that may be assigned? I'm sure you have plenty of thoughts on this! :) #Edchat
I think the key to being a good teacher is authenticity.
Kids/teens can sniff out inauthenticity and will challenge, test, and sometimes even confront it.
Authenticity - they trust that.

Q raises so many interesting issues: Why homework? How does “restrictions” relate to quantity of HW vs. quality of the assignment? What about time being different for each child? Differentiating HW?How about the flipped classroom, and HW? The digital divide and HW? etc. #edchat
HW ... not a fan, but I do not think anything should be mandated by Admin as it is not a one size fits all discussion. Coming up with something ridiculous like X minutes per grade level. #edchat

Homework restriction is a hot topic around the water cooler.
I'm in an #elemed setting. Not a fan of the old "10 mins/grade level" philosophy.
I protect my Ss' "kid life" outside of school. But they have responsibilities.

As @irasocol said at @educonphilly, “imagine if parents sent their kids to school with work to do, there would be a revolt”. This one is easy and obvious, yes, there needs to be restrictions. In fact, haven’t seen much research that shows much benefit at all #edchat
I don't have issues with homework, as long as it is valuable. It's nice when the homework builds on greater understanding of concepts in class. I also need to remember that I'm not the only class a student might have in a day. #edchat
I think the assumption that a kid has nothing better to do than do homework every night is a bit selfish. I don't care how important you think your content is ... kids shouldn't be working on school work at Midnight or later. #edchat
I'd like to see homework be more supplemental. Something that could be used to take a student farther. Projects, or community learning go a long way in creating a well-rounded student. #edchat
I think the purpose of the homework needs to be considered, how is it helping learning? What activities should be done in the classroom as what should be done at home? Don’t send pointless or impossible tasks home make it meaningful and worth their time. #edchat
Karl, yes, too much HW can limit outside activities, creative opportunities, and of course for some students necessary responsibilities to help their families succeed. #edchat

As a parent I also dislike homework (elementary) but I absolutely Eli was in reading 20 minutes every night and practicing math facts but allow for choice with math facts #edchat
#edchat Like many things in education, HW must be done/used correctly. I believe that it can used to help ensure students understand the topic more than just what was discussed in class. It provides an opportunity for students to monitor their understanding.

Completely agree! It would be great if we could afford students time to extend learning in areas they WANT to. Seems students might be more motivated. #edchat
Homework can squeeze family life; parents have ed. agendas for their children. They want to pass on their cultural heritage, religious beliefs & important lifeskills. They want to teach them how to be good citizens & how to share in the responsibilities of running a home. #edchat
Won't argue that point!
I'm not against restrictions. I'm not a big fan of hmwk anyway.
From an outsider's POV, it seems that HS/MS teachers don't 'coordinate' their work.
They each "only give" x-number of mins...sure...TIMES 5-6 classes.

So many kids are over-scheduled outside school with other activities (in addition to mountains of HW) that ANXIETY is the biggest issue we face in our school. #edchat
I think the assumption that a kid has nothing better to do than do homework every night is a bit selfish. I don't care how important you think your content is ... kids shouldn't be working on school work at Midnight or later. #edchat
My issue with HW is more about me being there to assist the kid and not the parent. I am the teacher NOT the parent. I do not want the parent to confuse the kid with inaccuracies. I know I have jacked up my daughters work by trying help her ... new math is confusing #edchat
Yes, I believe there should be restrictions on the amount of homework assigned to students. Overloading students with homework just causes stress and confusion for all involved. #edchat
Just as we need to questions what objectives we are meeting in our classroom activities, we need to understand the purpose behind the homework. When it has a specific purpose and meets a specific objective for that student, it loses some of its busy-work factor. #edchat

I wonder sometimes if homework is the leading cause for students lack of interest in school as they progress through grade levels. If we assign work at home, it needs to be engaging and thought provoking. #edchat
I agree that there may be good intentions behind HW. I just don't think the good intentions and possible good outcomes outweigh the negative. Just my opinion, though! :) #Edchat
Research appears to be consistent with the 10-minute rule, now commonly accepted. According to this rule, Ts should add 10min of hmwk for each grade a S completes, starting with the G1. Thus G1=10mins, G2=20mins, G3=30mins & so on.
Not saying I necessarily agree... #edchat
If a school mandates 20 minutes of HW per class, 5 classes would require 1.5 to 2hrs of extra work a day. That's crazy! What about Play time, extra curricular, family time, dinner? #Edchat Many tchrs assign it with no consideration of its effects. #Edchat

I also agree, homework is a way to check for understanding that shouldn’t take longer than 1-2 hrs..not for students to spend their entire night working on content. #edchat
HW absolutely is difficult for my EL students and their parents. It's heartbreaking when we sit in meetings and Ps say how they try to help, but once the Ss are in 3rd+, they have difficulty helping. Many tears over the years. #Edchat

I can completely understand that! I do believe that it really depends on how it is presented, the goals it works to me, and the understanding that children do have other things at home so we should not give obsene amounts of homework, or busy work. #edchat
The jury is still out on homework. Despite lots of research, there’s little agreement on the merits of homework, and its merits versus its costs. But research seems to suggest, if nothing else, that homework can enhance learning in many ways - it just depends what it is? #edchat
@ShiftParadigm I’m guessing Socrates, Plato, or Aristotle. Most likely Aristotle, he certainly sent his students on science field trips—probably after “school.” #edchat
We've got to get more students podcasting! I have learned so much by hosting the #EDpiphany podcast...technical skills, storytelling, the art of interviewing and relationship building, marketing...let's get more student voice out in the world. #edchat#podcastpd#CTE
Well...yes. In all things moderation.
I'd say, even, across the board in life.
Starts with Ts. But then, we are taxed with doing increasingly more in stagnant time. So, we must optimize. *Sometimes* HMWK (at upper levels) *is* an optimum.
The topics isn't all/nothing.
#edchat
Hmwk should be carefully designed & monitored to achieve the right learning outcomes for Ss i.e., improved learning, better study habits, higher academic achievement, & the like. Hmwk should have a specific purpose; 'busy time' hmwk with no pedagogical value is fruitless. #edchat
Students should be encouraged to extend learning beyond the classroom walls by engaging in passion projects. Not for assessment purposes, but for the joy of exploring something that is important to them #edchat
To justify homework by considering it practice or reinforcement does not work for every kid in the class, yet homework is usually a mass assignment no individualization. #Edchat
2/2. If a student has already mastered a concept then why the extra practice. If they have not yet mastered it, then what makes us think that they’ll magically master it at home. #edchat
IDK ... I know plenty of kids who read. Maybe not for AR points, but they read. They read sports news ... maybe we need to re-evaluate what constitutes "reading"... and I also hear a bunch of kids read some books by @jk_rowling#edchat
1/2 I strongly believe that we need to rethink our traditional notions about homework. Educators shouldn’t be using it for assessment as there is no guarantee that it was completed independently. #edchat
The school leadership and dept. chairs need to intervene, lead the discussion concerning coordinating of assignments. What do you think @MrU_ishere ? #edchat
Won't argue that point!

This seems an impractical guide in HS when Ss have 7 Ts— who knows how many minutes are being assigned? It’s impossible for grade 9 Ss to do 90 min a night for every T. How do you negotiate 90 minutes btw 7 Ts? #edchat
A teacher came to me just today to say I need to help my first grade #ELLS with a project because they never "do their homework." The assignment was in English. #Edchat
I never said they don't do work at home ... I just don't have it on a daily basis or require it. If something is not done then it is on them. Some choose to not do it in class ... but then Middle school is not college and we shouldn't expect them to be. #edchat
100% agree. That's a primary reason I prefer working within the "unfinished school work becomes HMWK" philosophy - Ss get what they need from the work that needs completing.
Differentiated bc the classwork is differentiated.
#edchat
We assume Ss will learn it, but we want to be present to provide the scaffold and clear up misunderstandings and misconceptions before they are practiced repeatedly and become crystallized. 1/2 #Edchat

I have Ss who think they "have it" and are completely wrong. If the T is not there to facilitate correction, it will take longer for them to learn it correctly. 2/2 #Edchat
Homework, if given at all, should allow students to explore the content they find interesting in school and learn more about it on their own terms. It shouldn't be more task people are telling them to do. #Edchat
For math there is no way to tell the difference between accurate work done independently & work that has been copied. Giving credit for complete, accurate math homework makes no sense. Let it be practice only. Mistakes are enoucraged and the kindling for tomorrow's class! #edchat
10 minutes HW for each year of grade level sounds like a made up edict from a non-educator. Nothing like creating a steadfast rule about learning that must be applied to every student. #Edchat
Requiring kids to read is a good thing ... mandating what they read is not. From grades 6-12 I read 2 books ... took zeroes on book reports. However, I read the newspaper from front to back everyday because that was what I wanted to do. #edchat
I am not saying they will instantly learn the info but doing the homework. The homework needs to be appropriate and needs to be reviewed after it is completely. The teacher should be involved. #edchat
My perception of homework changed DRAMATICALLY when I had my own children !! Ohhh, the tantrums and the pain. My little kids are truly exhausted after a long day of school, and so is their Teacher-Mummy! #edchat
Why does it have to be a book? There are so many great things to read that are not in book form. A passion to read starts by finding a passion. #edchat
OK, pls correct my understanding of flipped classroom. I understand it as giving Ss reading/prep work, etc. ahead of the actual class so that the pre-learning facilitates deeper dives into the material in school.
*if* I'm not wrong, isn't that HMWK by another name?

I believe it should be a consensus depending on the group average.If majority of students understand a concept more homework would be unnecessary but if a majority of the group does not understand then more homework on the topic would be necessary #edchat
Also, there is no way to enforce or audit these kind of homework/minute/class requirements. They're fine guidelines, but setting them in stone is setting authority up for failure. #edchat
I think the assumption that a kid has nothing better to do than do homework every night is a bit selfish. I don't care how important you think your content is ... kids shouldn't be working on school work at Midnight or later. #edchat
Flipped classrooms can be good, but I have also had experiences where students do not pay attention in the class because they have done the information the night before. Flipped classrooms need to be done right so that this does not happen #edchat

I completely agree! being able to help students find their passions in other education areas should be a priority rather than loading on the busy work. #edchat
Great extension @MrU_ishere from school to life, re: moderation. Dewey reminded us that school is life. And all or nothing is a good reminder how the great can be the enemy of the good. #edchat
Well...yes. In all things moderation.

#edchat
Why does it have to be a book? There are so many great things to read that are not in book form. A passion to read starts by finding a passion. #edchat
So, let's dive deeper. Say you have a student who did 10 problems completely wrong for HW, even though they seemed to "have it" the 2 days prior. You can review, but wouldn't you rather have done the assignment in class and you could have stopped them after 2 problems? #Edchat
The real issue is equity. If not every student has the time, place, and support at home to do homework, then what we really do is reinforce an inequitable system. Remember: not every student has a home. #edchat
I couldn't agree more! Homework should be used to reinforce what was learned in class that day. My co-teachers and I have a time limit that should be spent on each homework assignment. If they attempt longer, parents sign it, saying that they tried and need extra help. #edchat
I did a HW experiment w/staff several years ago. After I taught a lesson, 1 group had HW; 1 group had extension activities if they felt they needed additional practice; 1 group had guided practice in class. Guess the results… #edchat
I think the flipped classroom sees it as work that they kids can do independently b/c it's not "new" skills (reading a passage isn't a new skill, even if new content). HW is viewed as practicing new-ish learning. #Edchat

Yep, @RabbiRoss, again here is where the school leadership needs to intervene and help coordinate assignments so students are not overloaded. And, the assignments must be purposeful. #edchat
#Edchat Always found homework useless (as a teacher and student). I like longer class periods with lots of time for practice/engagement with resources. Home environments are incredibly varied ergo not a good/reliable measure of anything.
This is a concept that I think people forget about! homework is important for understanding but when the concept isn't fully understood in class the room for error in homework is much larger and can lead to learning the wrong ideas/concepts #edchat
Hey, @DonaldJTrumpJr, this “loser teacher” had a snow day today; she also graded 70 papers, designed & posted online extension activities for her students to do from home, communicated with several parents, & planned future projects. Not bad for a “day off.” #teacherlife#edchat
having trouble, not just simply giving up on it. The teacher can then reflect with the student in follow up where the confusion lies, and perhaps what is different with these problem than what was done two days prior. 2/2 #edchat
If you haven't celebrated an individual student on social media before, I challenge you to do so this week or next.
It very well may be what changes the trajectory of their life.
#GoForBroke#edchat
But what if they think they are right? They didn't stop b/c they weren't frustrated. They were wrong, but didn't know it until you told them.... #Edchat
This is interesting, you think that being able to work out problems outside of a classroom setting isn't beneficial? though an abundance of homework is unnecessary, some kind of take home comprehension seems necessary. #edchat
Just trying to get you to think about this kind of scenario, b/c I see it all.the.time. with my EL Ss. They think they have it correct when at times they are so far off base. #Edchat
I concede the distinction. But the conversation tonight seems to center on the infringement of work outside of schl on the life of children as children. To that end, doesn't remain work to be done at home &, therefore, infringe on that time? HMWK by any other name...no?

So, some HMWK is important work.
The conversation then has to shift to balance of school-home life AND to communication & coordination among teachers that assign work within that balance.
It's not the HMWK in and of itself.

That is absolutely your choice to do it that way! Yet, not every student will understand all concepts first time it is taught, so "re-learning" is bound to happen. It is why we seek to provide various anchors and ways for students to grasp information #edchat
Let's celebrate personalization (but not too fast). Ask yourself these 10 questions before implementing personalized learning: https://t.co/XQuRMQCUZI@cat3y#edchat

A basic flipped activity usually includes a “lecture” or “review" of content at home through technology/videos; then questions, activities in class with the teacher, to support the home content...developing the concepts further in class. #edchat
