▶ Your Answer :
Some people insist that giving students daily homework is necessary, while others may not. The answer to this question can vary greatly depending on individual’s perspectives. In my opinion, I strongly believe that it is better for students to assign daily homework for two major reasons as follows.
To begin with, doing homework is helpful for students’ study. This is due to the fact that students are able to review what they learned in school while completing homework. The prime example to illustrate this point is a study conducted by Ministry of Education in Korea in 2012, a case-in point of the significance of homework. In order to prove the effect of doing assignment, they divided students into two groups. At first, a teacher gave a lecture about a same topic to both groups. After finishing the class, one group is given assignments, and the other one is not given any assignment. As a result, the score of the group given assignments far outweigh the one of the other group on an examination. This clearly shows that giving assignments help students study.
On top of that, students are able to learn to be responsible by doing assignments. This is because they need to plan and prioritize their schedules in advance in order to use their limited time efficiently so that they can accomplish homework. To take my personal story for example, when I was little, I was not organized when it comes to my schedules and always decided my plans spontaneously. However, as I grew up, my teacher in school started to assign homework on a daily basis. Unless I plan my schedule in advance, I was not able to finish homework. Since then, I planned my schedules to leave time to do homework and I sometimes had to give up fun activities for assignments. In this process, I became more responsible than before. As seen in this case, students are able to learn the sense of responsibility if teachers assign homework on a daily basis.
For the reasons stated above I am definitely convinced that it is better for students to assign homework on a daily basis.
