What is Homework about?

Series editor Alan Maley. — Oxford University press, 2003. — ISBN: 0194375740. — 146 p. Resource book for teachers. "A pall of silence seems to cover the subject of homework in the literature on language learning and teaching. This can probably be explained by the emphasis placed in the last decades on communication in the classroom, which has excluded more conventional forms of learning such as translation or written assignments. But can and does language learning take place only in the classroom? Teachers do assign homework (when they can be bothered to "correct" it and/or if they are not so overloaded with classes that it becomes impossible). In classes of thirty or more, they have to make sure learning is done. Class time is too short and so is the attention span: when one can spend a whole hour without being solicited to practise the language actively. Testing in class can be done. But the learning process has to take place outside the class as well as inside. It does not stop when the bell rings or very little will be remembered. Lessons have to be revised, exercises done to ensure fixation. Practice of the language would be better but is far too often impossible" . . .
