Analysis of how the students’ behaviors in doing homework relate to their learning performance

Abstract

As an important way of reinforcing learning and honing skills, homework plays a significant role in students’ academic life. This study intends to investigate the relationship between the behaviors of students in doing homework (self-regulation and time spend on homework) and their academic achievements. The results show that homework self-regulation behaviors have significant effects on academic achievements yet the time spent on homework is not a convincing variable in predict students’ grades. Propose a complex algorithm to classify homework behaviors and identify the learners who possibly yield poor learning performance will be our next work.
