Since many concerns about students’ academic performance have increased, most schools are starting to notice the importance of daily assignments. Some people think that assigning homework is not a good way of teaching because teachers tend to force students to do it regardless of their interests. However, in my opinion, students can obtain several benefits from conducting their assignments. The rationale behind this is that daily homework can facilitate students’ learning process. Also it provides teachers with a chance of evaluating their academic programs which are undergoing.
To begin with, daily assignments play a significant role in promoting students’ learning ability because reviewing with daily homework is an effective way to sort a lot of information from a learning process systematically. In other words, students can store academic or physical knowledge in their brain by conducting their assignments. A recent study of the relevance between reviewing and academic achievement conducted by Seoul National University in 2008, demonstrates that students who have regular time to go over are likely to make a good marks at school. In contrast, students who do not pay attention to conduct their assignments tend to get relatively lower grades. The reports also recommend students do their homework on a regular basis in order to pursue academic advance.
In addition, setting a daily task to students can be an effective method for teachers to evaluate their students’ progress. In fact, it is impossible that a teacher concentrates on respective students on the educational environment of the Korea because there are too many students to care about within a given time at a class. In this sense, assigning homework to students will be a good alternative plan. This is because not only have teachers enough time to comment on students’ reports after school, but also they can manage overall academic programs according to the result based on evaluations of students’ assignment. Actually, a lot of teachers working in private institutes in Korea have used daily assignments as a reliable tool of improving and estimating students’ academic progress for many decades. Until now, that there is no alternative to speak of which replaces daily homework with other something.
In conclusion, it is evident that daily homework contributes to both students’ academic achievement and teachers’ effective management of their class. We know the old saying “many a little makes a mickle”. Likewise, we should remember that a daily homework which may seem to be trivial makes a great improvement of studying.
