Abstract
There is a growing body of scientific literature and research data recognizing the value of using online homework. Online homework may transform the way students learn outside the classroom, offering a dynamic and interactive approach to reinforcing learning objectives. This paper explores the concerns of educators arising from the integration of the online homework assignment and presents an educational intervention for 5th grade students. The aim of the intervention was to engage students in online homework as a supplementary material to the educational process. Results from the evaluation of the intervention are presented and the benefits of the intervention are highlighted. Although there are various technological, pedagogical and social challenges that need to be addressed, online homework can contribute to a more positive learning environment. Teachers who assign online homework seem to help enhance students’ intrinsic learning motivation so that students may achieve better learning outcomes.
