What will homework policies look like that are evidence-based, factor in student well-being, and promote meaningful learning?
California is about to lead the way in finding out! California Healthy Homework Act (AB2999) was recently signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom, encouraging school districts and local education agencies to create homework policies that:
* Use research to align policies with the developmental needs of students in various grade levels
* Emphasize meaningful assignments over “busywork”
* Prioritize students’ mental and physical health
* Invite student, parent, and educator input into the policy creation process
* Consider equity implications, such as whether students have access to resources and technology available to complete their assignments
