Is Homework Helping or Hurting Our Students?
Sure! Here's a forum post for E
Homework has long been a part of education, aimed at reinforcing learning beyond the classroom. But in today’s fast-paced and pressure-filled environment, many students feel overwhelmed by the amount of homework they receive.While some homework can support practice and responsibility, too much of it may lead to stress, lack of sleep, and reduced time for hobbies or family. For younger students especially, long assignments may not add real value to learning.
As teachers, we need to ask: Are we assigning homework with purpose, or just out of habit? Quality matters more than quantity. Thoughtfully designed tasks that encourage creativity, reflection, or real-life application can be far more effective than repetitive worksheets.
How much homework is too much?
Do you think homework helps or hurts your students' motivation and well-being?
Let’s share our views and rethink how we assign homework in a way that supports—not burdens—our learners. -
RE: IMPLEMENTING THE FOUR CORE LEARNING SKILLS AMONG STUDENTS
@KHAN0e897aa3a22 Enhancing the four core skills listening, speaking, reading, and writing is vital for student development. Project-based learning is a powerful approach, as it integrates all skills naturally. For example, students can research a topic (reading), discuss it in groups (speaking & listening), and present their findings in a report (writing). This real-world, collaborative method boosts engagement and communication skills effectively.

RE: Flipped Classroom Implementation: Share Your Experiences!
@Ahlam Flipping my class really changed how my students engaged with learning. Instead of just listening in class, they now come prepared and ready to think. Watching short videos or reviewing notes at home gives them time to absorb the basics at their own pace. Then, in class, we solve problems together, discuss ideas, and work through challenges. This shift made even my quiet, passive students more active they ask questions, help each other, and actually enjoy tackling problems. It gave them ownership and confidence, and turned my classroom into a space for real thinking, not just note-taking.

Teaching Beyond the Textbook: Nurturing Critical Thinking in the Classroom
In an age of information overload, memorizing facts isn’t enough students need to learn how to think critically, ask questions, and solve real-world problems.
Teaching beyond the textbook means creating learning experiences that spark curiosity, encourage debate, and connect lessons to life outside the classroom. From project-based learning and inquiry activities to open-ended discussions, there are many ways to build critical thinking skills across all subjects.
How do you encourage your students to think critically? What strategies or activities have worked well in your classroom?

Balanced Approach
Technology can transform education, but it should support, not replace, human interaction. A blended model is the future — one that combines digital tools with real-world connection.

RE: Flipped with Gamification strategy
@Uzma-Farooqui That’s a wonderful approach! Incorporating your own pedagogy and turning topics into games can make learning both effective and enjoyable. Games naturally encourage participation, critical thinking, and collaboration skills students need across all subjects.
Do you have any favorite game based activities you've used recently? I’d love to hear examples or tips on how you design them. Always looking for creative ways to make lessons more interactive!

RE: Giving Feedback
@Yousuf-Memon Your article makes a good point about the importance of giving feedback, especially creative feedback. To improve clarity and flow, consider breaking up long sentences and avoiding repetition like "errors/weaknesses of their areas of learning." Keep it concise and focused.

RE: Education VS unemployment 🤜🤛
@Nawres-Alabed Education sits at a crossroads between personal growth and workforce preparation. We make advanced study hard to ensure depth and rigor, but that often narrows access and choice. Meanwhile, unemployment persists because education doesn’t always align with market needs, and jobs aren’t just about skills—they're about systems, economies, and access. It’s a complex mismatch between ideals and realities.

RE: How to fight stress in classroom?
@Nawres-Alabed You're not alone
mid-term burnout is real. I try to build in quick mindfulness breaks (even 2 minutes of deep breathing), ease up on the pace when possible, and create space for students to share how they’re feeling. A little empathy and flexibility can go a long way for everyone. -
RE: From a Teacher’s Heart💔: How Do We Make Students Read Again?
@Nawres-Alabed You're not alone it’s a growing challenge. Try connecting books to their world: graphic novels, audiobooks, TikTok-famous titles, or stories that reflect their lives. Let them choose and own their reading. Curiosity comes alive when they feel seen.
