16、ing English. Homework assignment is one of the important progresses to improve teaching quality. In English teaching, teachers assigning homework scientifically can further improve the teaching efficiency and the students learning interest. 2. Literature Review2.1 Research AbroadNearly 20 years, for

17、eign scholars have done a lot of studies about homework problems. Studies include the correlation between time to complete homework and academic achievement, peoples attitude towards homework, feedback on homework, school homework policy and homework affected. Cooper (1989) defined that homework is

18、such kind of learning tasks arrange by teachers for students and used extra-curricular time to complete. Homework is not only a great influence learning outcomes for students, but also have a great impact on the ability to develop independent learning (Cooper, 1989).2.2 Research in China This field

19、(homework) started late in China. There are a few of empirical researches and experimental studies, and the majority of current results are teachers teaching lessons. Our primary and secondary schools began to implement the new English curriculum standards in 2001. The curriculum standards emphasize

20、 translation from teacher-centered to student-centered and attention from passing knowledge to the construction of knowledge. Implement of the new curriculum has led to a number of in-depth studies and reflects by English language educators, but there is few study about English homework problems. Ze

21、ng Taochu(1999, cited in Wang silou, 2008) pointed out, students achievement is related to quality of homework and the students involvement. The higher homework quality is, the better achievement get. It is the same to students involvement. In terms of the amount of work configuration, for this issu

22、e “How much time junior high school students should spend to complete the English homework? ”, the Ministry of Education ( State Board of Education, 1994) made it clear that the total daily homework time all grades in junior high school subjects must not exceed 1.5 hours (by the time of middle level

23、 students). Students using 20 minutes to complete English homework which is designed by English teachers will achievements good learning results (Shan jiqing, 2003). Despite there are some achievements on homework layout, but the problems of homework still do not get enough attention. it still need

24、to solve. So when many foreign workers focus on improving teaching in classroom, the English homework design can not be neglected.3. The Background of the Situation of Homework Assignment3.1 The Main Features1）Single TypeUnder the new curriculum, homework should be students development-oriented, pay

25、ing more attention to students interests and needs, focusing on the development of students personality and it helps students to foster innovative spirit and develop practical ability. As students development platform, the assignment ought to give students self homework rights, which provides studen

26、ts with self-expression, reflection and summary of opportunity. But now there are still many English homework layout problems and single type is one of them. Paper work is the main assignment type. Most of teachers generally tend to furnish written assignment, such as vocabulary exercise, grammar ex

27、ercise, writing exercise, reading exercise, while non-written assignments, such as listening, speaking, reading in a great degree are ignored. In fact, the English homeworks type is so rigid and boring that it cant arouse students interest, which dampen students enthusiasm to complete the English ho

28、mework. An important principle of English teaching is that listening and speaking are the leader with reading and writing to keep up”. That means that verbal task is an important aspect in English learning. And verbal task should be a large proportion of English homework. But in the actual teaching,

29、 the verbal homework is a mere formality. It is not implemented, which results in “dumb English” and students can not reach the “new curriculum standards” requirements.2）Large AmountIn terms of the amount of homework configuration, for this issues “How much time should junior school students spend o

30、n the English homework?” the Ministry of Education (State Board of Education, 1994) made it clear that the total daily homework time for all grades of junior high school subjects must not exceed 1.5 hours ( by time of middle level students time). For students, the amount of homework must be appropri

31、ate, not to engage in sea tactical. Practice has proved that the overburdened not only fail to achieve the purpose and requirements of the assignment, but also increase the burden on students and undermine students body health.3）The Same Homework to EveryoneAs we all know, every student has differen

32、t individual characteristic, different foundation, various acceptance and self-control, etc. All aspects are different, but our teachers assignments are uniform. Most of teachers assign the same homework ignoring students different learning levels, which cant take care of every students personality

33、development. On the one hand, it is hard for some students to finish the homework timely in high quality, so they lose interest in homework. They feel anxious when they do the homework. On the other hand, some students simply because the homework is too boring and dull to complete, which cant excite

34、 their learning and creating potential. Such unified assignment became helpless and passive.3.2 The ReasonsThe main features about the English homework assignment exist many years in English teaching. Of course, there are still other defects on assigning homework, such as difficult homework, teacher

35、-dominated in homework evaluation method. Though implementation of quality education was advocated in our country, and a part of districts has achieved, however, the exam-oriented education in our country has been implemented for many years, many teachers are influenced by its deep thought so that t

36、he teachers lack attention to the students, thus affecting the education work. In fact, the students need learning autonomously. Learner autonomy theories aims at transferring responsibilities for aspects of the language learning process( such as setting goals, selecting learning strategies, and eve

37、n evaluating progress) from teacher to the learner (Cotterall,2000). Therefore, our country conducted a national education reform. That is oriented education. But whats the oriented education? According to the internet, oriented education means this kind of education that divorce from social develop

38、ment and contrary to human development law to cope with the entrance examination for the purpose of educational ideas and educational activities. Examination is its purpose and its educational model and test method limits the students ability into full development, which get students difficult to ad

39、opt to work and society. Under this kind of education idea, we can understand why there are so many shortcomings on the homework. So what are the concrete reasons? First, the entrance examination mode in junior high school determines the modes of homework. The form of exam in junior high school is m

40、ainly writing, less speaking, listening aspects and in order to meet the test, many teachers fill follow the exam mode to assign the homework, then the assignment appears single type. Second, the examination-oriented education ignores the ideological and political education, and training does not fo

41、cus on non-intelligence factors such as the personality qualities, mental qualities. One-sided pursuit of enrollment quotas is its most obvious feature. Under examination-oriented education influence, scores will be emphasized while students ability cultivation is ignored in teachers assignment. Sea

42、 tactical operations instead of the effective homework design. Sea tactical operation is a heavy burden on students learning which not only cant achieve the so-called effect, but also enable students to produce irritability, anxiety mood. Third, teachers ignore the personality development of student

43、s. For different students have different cognitive ability, so the teachers should design homework according to different learning characteristics of students. This is individualized. It makes every student play his specialty. Then it can avoid every student to complete the same homework.3.4 The Def

44、inition and the Function of Homework Cooper (1989) defined that the homework is such kind of learning tasks arranged by teachers for students and used extra-curricular time to complete. Assignment refers to learning task of a subject assigned by teachers and completed by students independently after

45、 class. It is also called homework, because most students usually complete it at home (Mu Jinjiang and Luo Xiaojie, 2006:16). English as an international language is inevitable to cooperate with the students, extracurricular individuals and groups in the process of learning and use. So, teachers mus

46、t pay attention to oral work and make the verbal task become an important part of homework. Reasonable homework helps students consolidate what they have learned in class and put knowledge into skills. At the same time, homework is also an important way of teaching feedback for teachers and they can

47、 find themselves teaching deficiencies in students homework. However, from our experience in junior high school, the homework still is regarded as a tool to strengthen the classroom teaching by the traditional teaching evaluation. The content of homework is mostly the mechanical memory by the old form, which suppresses the students interests, and ignore the students learning ability training, then it curbs the development of students leaning ability.3.5 The New Curriculum Standards of English Homework “English curriculum standard
