Homework Dilema: Student Questions

We have currently been surveying the students about “Homework Dilemma”. We asked a total of 4 questions to the Montrose High School and received 53 responses back. Our question and their responses will be listed below:


    The first question we asked was how much time you spend on homework outside of school which isn’t including time spent in study halls or throughout the day and received 52 responses back. 42% of the Montrose High School students said they spend 2-4 hours of homework every night. Next on the tile was an hour spent and 21% said they spend that much. 9% said they never have any homework so they don’t have to spend time outside of school and the other 28% spend 10 minutes to 45 minutes.
    The second question we asked was how often do you get assigned homework and we received 53 responses the majority said everyday which is 98% and one person said never which completes the percent tile with 2%.
   
    The third question we asked was what in your opinion do you think the purpose of homework is and we received 53 responses back ranging from paying attention to bettering ourselves. 53% said that they think the purpose of homework it to make sure we are paying attention so we know what is going on and the other 47% of the HS said they think it is to better their selves so they know how to use it in the real world.


     The last question we asked the High School Students was since homework is a portion of your grade what would you like to see replace that portion of your grades. We received back 49 responses and it was a tie, 50% said they would like to see notes and participation to be a portion of their grade and the other 50% said they would want lab reports, projects, quizzes and tests to be replaced for the portion of their grades.
