Online vs pen-and-paper homework: an integrative review
| Resumo: | One of the most important educational tool used by teachers and students is homework. Homework provides the opportunity for students to practice by themselves what was learned in class. Online platforms are available for teachers to assign homework and consequently for their students to complete the tasks assigned. The current study aimed to conduct an integrative review providing an overview of the research on online homework and pen-and-paper homework with the objective to explore which type of homework (i.e. online vs. pen-and-paper) has more benefits for student’s performance. Thirty-three studies were reviewed and categories such as participants, duration of intervention and course domain were found. Analyzing the sample of the articles revised, online homework has more benefits for students than pen-and-paper homework. |
