Abstract

This research study would the positive and negative impacts of home assignment on the performance of students through a review of the literature of previous and current studies. The outcome of several studies on the need for teachers to assign homework showed that students require adequate rest to refresh their memories since the process is critical to their overall development. Also, empirical evidence from most of the works selected from this review showed that students of teachers that assign home assignment at least three times a week for their subject perform less than their counterparts. When the correlation between the impacts of homework to the success of the learner at the end of the year is extended to low-income students, the result a substantial negative outcome is obtained. Therefore, the proposed research study should identify the factors that are necessary for determining the necessity of home assignments and their potential impact on the success of students in their academic endeavor……….
