Homework can be a contentious issue in schools, not just for pupils, but for professionals too.  The question of how much, and what type, is hotly debated, with some arguing that homework is unlikely to benefit the pupils who need such benefits the most. 
 
Here we present some [[Teaching Approaches/Active learning|active learning]] homeworks, and some which may be used for [[Teaching Approaches/Assessment|assessment]].  The 'flipped classroom' is oft discussed at present; in this view, classroom work of reading, viewing powerpoint slides, working through basic worksheets and so on should be done at home, with classroom  time reserved for, [[Teaching Approaches/Reasoning|reasoning]], [[Teaching Approaches/Whole class|whole class]] [[Teaching Approaches/Dialogue|dialogue]], and [[Teaching Approaches/Inquiry|enquiry]] based learning instead.
