Introduction
Rationale
With the passing of time many things have changed and advanced including
technology, society and even the teaching system. Through these changes, teachers
have created innovative ways on teaching their students and it depends on the
teacher if they want to give homework or not. Homework refers to activities or task
given by the teachers to students to be done at home or outside the school. It also

Homework helps the student since it develops the relationship of the child
towards his/her family, friends and teachers ( Voorhis & Epstein , 1998,2001) .
lesson and materials being used during their discussions. However it has its
negative sides like causing boredom, loss of interest, cheating, unneeded stress, and
pressure on the child that affects student's emotions, behaviors, thinking ability and
others (Cooper, 2006). Therefore, homework is both helpful and detrimental to both
The worldwide statistics states that, 55% of the teachers strongly agreed
about homework helping the students to learn while at home. While only 40% of the
student somewhat agree that homework is helpful in their studies (Walker, 2015).
On the other hand, students in Asia spend 6.28 hours in doing homework and in
Shanghai, China which is the biggest country in Asia, has the most time spent on
doing homework which resulted to a higher score in their exams (Kohli, 2014).
Whereas in the Philippines, 1 hour and 40 minutes is the average time spent in
homework and the byproduct of this is getting higher scores on their exam. This
assumes that students are advised to have frequent homework but should have
lesser time in doing it since it promotes stress and boredom (Philippine Basic
Education, 2015).
homework or assignment shall be given during weekends for pupils to enjoy their
childhood and spend quality time with their parents without being burdened by the
thought of doing lots of homework. In Cebu alone, 13 subjects are taken by students
each day. So it is expected that after school, students spend most of their remaining
time doing homework and just a small time is allotted for another things or none at
The study about the teachers who are giving homework aims to discover if
the time spent in doing homework is proportional to the learnings or things that
students get out of it. It also aims to find out the difficulties encountered by teachers
in assigning homework and when they find out that the students didn't give

students but especially teachers exerting for the welfare of their students.

Related Theory
In this section, theories are cited to support the claims of this study. There
were three theories that the study is anchored on, namely Operant Conditioning by
homework to their students. These three theories support the study and indicate
the reasons of students and teachers of senior high school department towards their
that happens when a particular individual makes an association with his or her
behavior with its corresponding reward or punishment. There are three types of
operant or responses that can follow a behavior: neutral operants, reinforcers, and
punishers. Neutral operants refer to responses from the sorroundings that neither
increase nor decrease the chances of a behavior being repeated. Reinforcers refer to
4
responses from the surroundings that increase the chance of a behavior being
repeated. On the other hand, punishers refer to a response from the surrounding
that decreases the likelihood of the behavior being repeated. Hence, a displeasing
behavior will be punished thus it's less likely to be repeated while a pleasant
behavior will be rewarded and will have a higher probability of being repeated.

their past experience and existing knowledge discover facts that enables them to
resolve problems. Learning happens when one actively seeks out answers and
solutions and not just directly absorbing facts as it is. So the important outcomes of
learning include not just the concepts, categories, and problem-solving procedures
invented previously by the others, but also the ability to "invent" these things for
oneself. This will help students recall knowledge or information which they
discovered on their own. This theory believes that discovery learning encourages
experiences. That's why teachers give students homework for them to be actively

various activities and homework are good for learners rather than using a
traditional teacher focused method. Moreover, students learn more through guided
experience combined with practical activities. This will help in reaching the
different learning preferences of the students. (Ann Gravells, Susan Simpson, 2014)

The Value of homework has been debated for a long time. Some people find it
useful since it helps students to review things learned in class and build study skills

For many students, Mandatory homework has consumed their weekend like
what adults consider overtime. The daily homework slog keeps many students on
the clock as long as lawyers, teachers and other overworked adults-causing anxiety
and depression. That`s the reason why many parents have suggested banning

homework from school. Another alternative are doing practice exercises and
Even if homework is very useful to students, there are still other people that
are not convinced about it. Other parents see it as a curse for their children because
it decreases the amount of sleep of a kid to take a rest. Normally, a person should
have 8 hours of sleep but because of homework it decreases to 5 hours of rest. This
means that students will not have enough rest to power their minds, he/she might
end up sleeping during class hours. (Lohmann, How Much Homework Is Too Much
Homework has no benefits for students since younger students are not ready
to learn time management and work habits. However, educators and some parents
still think that homework is necessary to test if a student really learned or not.
Moreover, homework helps the younger students get ready for the work they’ll have
in middle school, high school or even college. With this, students can easily recall
what they’ve learned and use it as a stock knowledge. As a result, students would be

Ang advantage sa magdala ta anang homework kay mas more responsible ta kay
mag make ta sa trabahoon nato ana di ta maglaaglaag its because naa tay
buhaton ana na time nya disadvantages ana kay since kay time na sa uli kay mao
na sya pahuway na but maghimo gihapon sa homework so its kind of kapoy.

(Unsa ang imong kasagaran nga gikabalak-an? Unsa ang imong gibati sa dihang

For me since mas nindot sya kung dili na sya ipabuhat sa mga student kay since
ang pag-uli nato kay mao jud nay time nga ipahuway nya naa say time sa pag
study and then luoy kay ang mga bata kay ma stress silag maayo then kay imbis
mo pahuway na sila kay naghimo sila kay i lessen lang dili lang ipadaghan kay
para makapahuway sad ang mga bata.

For me, the advantages of doing homework is feel nako if magbuhat kag
assignment didto sa inyong balay kay mareview gud nimo kung unsa inyong gi
topic pag niagi or karon nga day nya feel nako ang disadvantage sad kay dili
dayon sya mabuhat kay naa pabayay buhaton sa balay.

(Unsa ang imong kasagaran nga gikabalak-an? Unsa ang imong gibati sa dihang

Akong concern kay ang time kay dili dayon sya mabuhat. some teachers ra nya
kung makadungan-dungan sila kay dili gud kaya kay naa bayay ubang taw kay
dili kahibaw mo kuan ug time management nya usahay dili mahuman ang usa ka
assignment, ang isa ra kay mas gi focusan to niya, mga ing-ana kay nagdungan-
dungan na baya.
Katugon nya usahay dili dayon mabuhat kay kapoy, gikan sa skwelahan
magbuhat dayon ug assignment "kapoy kaayo dae"

Homework specially in kanang iresearch bitaw sya sa internet kay usahay kay

nya makapuno gali siya sa bulohaton sa balay nya murag mas madestrak atung

Kung maghimo kog homework kay daghan kag mahibaw-an in advance kaysa dili

mawagtangan kag time sa uban nimong buhatonon nga di sad unnecessary.

sila" nya kinahanglan maghatag sila ug mga assignments pero sabton sad nila ba
kung unsay ma feel nato. Kung daghan kay silag gihatag kay di na jud na maayo

Student Participant 20

The advantages of homework is for the grades of the students like one way of
testing sa unsay nakat-onan sa mga student about sa usa ka topic then ang
disadvantage is maka cause siya ug mga like if ang usa ka studyante is
bombarded gani ug daghag buhatonon is cause sya sa atong mental health then
physical health like dili nama focus sa studyante, ang mafocus ra sa studyante is
naa ra jud sa iyang pag studies.

Concerns, maybe, then this time we have lost or have memorandum that
assignment will not be given during weekends so we are going to follow but so in
giving drills, it could be given during class schedule and not during weekends. I
felt frustrated and, I felt that they don't value the education that they cannot do
their assignment then it's good that even a few numbers they can answer the
assignment meaning they are interested to learn.
Many of the students are not doing their assignments so for the next day they
just came to school and copy the assignment of their classmates. Those are my
experiences.

I think the advantages of doing homework to students is, at home they can
practice reading in advance and they can learn in advance, they can be
independent on their own when you are going to give or when I'm going to give
my students an assignment . I think of this of the stated advantages earlier and
the disadvantage is that the following day if they're not going to do what I want
them to do, I will be stressed as a teacher.

My concern, usually if it's a weekend I’ m not going to give homework. I’m not
the type of teacher who always gives a homework except for the practical
research because they really have to do it at home and I don't see any concern
when I'm going to give an homework because students tend to really do it and in
Senior High more or less they are mature and they know their different
responsibilities and they know the consequences if they are not going to do the
homework. Again, I will be stress and I will be disheartened and I think it will be
headache on my part because I assumed that if I'm going to have an assignment
it will be an advantage to their part, not on my part so I will feel stressed because
students are not taking their responsibilities seriously .
Again so far, with my Reading and Writing I'm not so giving homework but in
Practical Research I have given assignments which I think, for me I will be proud
of myself because the students are really doing their best to really do their
homework at home.

I'm not an advocate of homework, first usually most of the time I don't give
homework because it's my training. Advantage, sometimes if students are not
finished with their work, they can actually finish it at home that’s the only
advantage but for disadvantage I think it defeats the purpose because most of
the student just do if in school anyway.

They usually do it in school and copy the answer of his/her classmates, they just
cheat.

Advantages are enrich learning, students can divert instead of spending time
using the internet. disadvantage is that homework steals family time , answers to
homework don't come from students.

Both positive and negative. Positive if all students accomplish the tasks and
negative if there are students who fail to do the tasks.

My concern is that students cheat and I feel sad and somehow disappointed
because students disregard my effort imparted to them. Homework is for them
to improve and grow not for us teachers.

First is because I notice that many students will just copy the homework of their
classmates so my concern is it defeats the purpose of the homework which
usually I intend it for their mastery of skills even its purpose and in turn it will
not have affect their academic performance. Since I don't give home works all
the time, I feel upset if ever my students will not do their homework it's because
I only give homeworks if when I found it's necessary.

Advantages, so that the students and family members are in or part of the study
of the students. The disadvantage is that the students will not have enough time
to spend with their family.

(Unsa ang imong mga kabalaka? Unsa ang imong gibati sa dihang ang imong

Based on my experience almost of the students do their job and they are very
cooperative and participative in doing homework.

I'm not used in giving homework to my students if you asked my students about
giving an assignment to students I'm not so into that because I want them to
experience the life of a son and daughter in their homes and sometimes I gave
assignment if it is necessary. Number one advantage here is they are able to
understand the concepts before I will discuss. Second is also they will be able to
get the sense of responsibility because answering your assignment is a sign of
being a responsible student. The disadvantages of giving homework is that
assignment is too much for them right? Because our student is also a son and a
daughter and then home should be home and not a school anymore. If you give
too much assignment, they cannot focus any more to other subjects and also they
cannot do their task at home.

My concern is that they copy the answers from their classmates. I don't get mad
if the reason of the student is valid for example naay nahitabo sa balay na bati
pero king nag tog tog lang or makalimot ka mag yawyaw ko oi!.
