Abstract

Teachers, parents, and stakeholders debate the role of homework in learning. Some argue that this burdens students, reduces the development of social skills and exacerbates disparities, while others argue that it strengthens classroom learning. The effectiveness of homework varies by time of day, grade level, individualization, and subject. Older students benefit more, but excessive homework can be counterproductive. This study used a mixed methods design, integrating quantitative and qualitative data, to explore the impact of homework. Data collection includes questionnaires, interviews, and student homework sheets. Two teachers from MTS Sabilil Khoir Porong participated. Results showed 65% of responses agreed, with one teacher supporting the positive impact of homework and others expressing reservations. Teachers emphasize making homework interesting, utilizing technology, and balancing assignments to support student learning. Teachers believe that homework is a valuable tool to give students additional time to understand lessons. They use worksheets and today's technological advances, such as Canva and social media platforms, to create engaging homework. This strategy aims to increase student enthusiasm and improve their learning outcomes. Future researchers should conduct additional research on the impact of homework on student learning outcomes.
