Abstract

Homework is a part in the curricula and it is curricular activity. Homework is a student's independent activity through which some of the requirements of the curriculum are fulfilled. The main goal of homework is to develop independence and responsibility among students. Homework is the student's activities, which result from the daily obligations to work at school and help in the performance of teaching duties but are realized outside of schoolwork. They are, in most cases, just an extension of schoolwork. Through checking the student's homework, the teacher has an insight into the student's progress, perceives their achievements but also their shortcomings in mastering the teaching material, and, based on that, builds a strategy to overcome the student's weaknesses and failures in the adoption of the teaching material. Also, the importance of giving homework lies in the fact that they help students achieve qualitative knowledge and skills, which they achieve independently. That's why we say that students, through homework, are active participants in the successful implementation of teaching work, and therefore we conclude that homework is a function of the success and achievements of students. The purpose of the research was to gain insights into whether regularly checking homework has an impact on students' success and achievement in primary school. Based on this purpose and the complexity of the problem posed above, we defined the descriptive method, the inductive method, the deductive method, the comparative method, and the statistical method. Also, for the needs of the research, the survey was used as a technique for collecting empirical data and as an instrument—a questionnaire for teachers and a questionnaire for students. According to the needs of the research, 210 teachers and 210 students from elementary schools were surveyed. The obtained results generally support the finding that working on the homework makes students more independent in the way they learn and how to take responsibility for themselves.
