Few subjects get teachers fired up more than discussing homework policy. Should you give homework? How much? How often? Should parents be involved? What about late penalties?
Here’s a good post on teachers’ perceptions of homework.

Hi Eric
This is a great article on a website that I found a few months back. I had missed this post however, and since this is an issue I have been struggling with for the past couple of months, it is nice to hear other teachers’ perspectives on it, and to know that I am not the only one who constantly waffles on where the line should be.
