Tips for Getting Homework Done 11. Match assignments to your style of teaching. Assignments are more apt to succeed if the teacher is comfortable with them.
- One Nevada English teacher, Paula Naegle, tells the story of a fellow teacher who has discovered a way to boost her homework completion rate. But it might not suit a less athletically inclined teacher:
"She promises her students that if all of them have their homework on a given day, she will stand on her head or she will teach the class on her roller blades, or she will sing and dance for them. They actually do their homework, just to see if she will keep her word. And, by golly, she does. Somehow she wins them over early in the year with this stunt. She doesn\'t get 100 percent homework turned in for the rest of the year, but it really has made a difference."
