RE: Homework to improve learning or safeguard jobs of teachers & school management?
Those teachers are the one to blame. That’s definitely school work not homework. Students are supposed to receive guidance at school to complete school assignments. Guidance in written form should be extended to “homework”.
I am actually a fan of flipped instruction though not many teachers use it in the district where I work.
Those students needing to do 'homework' are probably falling behind, to help them finish at home, they need explicit hints than other students who were able to wrap up all work at school.
Written instructions are explicit and can be effective in helping them catch up. This is probably something related to student-centred learning (I guess?) where learning/teaching can be slightly customised to fit students at different levels. Less capable students are not left behind.
