Does Linking Science Homework to Feedback in Lesson Starters Improve Completion Rates by Increasing Perceived Value?
Carolyn Neylon

- N/A
- August 20, 2025
This project developed from a question I was asked about a homework platform I had purchased for the science department – is it effective? Realising I actually didn't know, I decided to research effective but manageable homework strategies in science, explore student motivations for completing their homework, and building from that, collect data on the most effective use of the platform.

- N/A
- August 20, 2025
This action research investigates the relationship between students' metacognitive self-awareness and learning quality when presented with varying quantities of physics tasks. Drawing upon Self-Determination Theory (Ryan, 2000) and Universal Design for Learning principles (Rose, 2002), this study examines how varying task choices influences learning outcomes for students with different levels of metacognitive awareness.
