Abstract

Measuring the effectiveness of homework to the academic performance of students is important. Homework is one way of helping students understand their lesson well. It is given to students for them to continue learning outside the classroom and elaborate on what they learned in school. It is important in learning because it will practice students’ understanding, problem-solving skills, and other academic skills. It is not an additional activity given to students to give them stress but it is an activity for them to continue learning the lessons discussed in the school. A qualitative method was used in the study. Using a descriptive research design, it focused on the assessment of Grade 12 ABM students and the effectiveness of homework to them. There were four academic variables identified to measure the effectiveness of homework such as student’s written works, performance tasks, and quarterly assessments. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to the target respondents. The results of the study revealed the effectiveness of homework to the academic performance of the Grade 12 ABM Students in terms of these variables: (1) Written Works –Students can answer and get high scores in their quizzes or seatwork. (2) Performance Task –Students can actively participate in group activities and recitations. (3) Quarterly Assessment -Students can answer and understand the questions because of familiarization in doing their homework. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of homework to the students’ academic performance. Doing homework is important and it is a great help in getting the students’ achievements and become excellent in school because they are more knowledgeable and they practice their skills. The teachers must explain the big impact of doing homework to practice their skills and for them to understand the lesson and continue learning outside the classroom. The teachers, together with the school administrators, must promote guidelines in giving more effective homework. This leads to the students' academic excellence.
