Rethinking Homework: Best Practices That Support Diverse Needs

(July 2009 Member Book)

 

 

Synopsis

This book examines the role homework has played in school culture over the years. Is homework due for a change? Author Cathy Vatterott says yes! In this interview, Vatterott addresses the fault lines of the decades-old homework debate and offers school leaders a new way to use homework and homework policies to really help students master content.

This interview was conducted by ASCD project manager and staff writer Rick Allen.
