Title: Homework is a Mental Health Concern (Guidance Notes)
Description: It's time for every school to have an in depth discussion about homework as a major concern. So many problems between kids and their families, the home and school, and students and teachers arise from conflicts over homework. The topic is a long standing concern for mental health practitioners, especially those who work in schools. Over the years, we have tried to emphasize the idea that schools need to ensure that homework is designed as "motivated practice," and parents need to avoid turning homework into a battleground. These views are embedded in many of the Center documents.Access at: http://smhp.psych.ucla.edu/pdfdocs/homework.pdf 56kb; 4pp
