Well, I can't believe how many blogs are out there. Then, there are more and more links from each blog! Two that I found interesting were:
http://www.nucleuslearning.com/content/what-purpose-homework
http://www.teachforever.com/
As a parent and student teacher, I am always looking for new ideas and enjoy discussions such as the one presented in the first link listed above, "What is the Purpose of Homework?" The perspective is different depending if you are a teacher, parent, or student.
Until next time . . .
