摘要：In this article we raise the question why schools give homework. It is easily observed that home work is given as a natural tradition within the schools. With that in mind, we are discussing the attitudes and the alleged utility of home-work. In this, among other things, we are investigating the actors’ point of view – teachers, parents and pupils. We have found that the practice of homework in many parts is unregulated and non-reflected. Therefore we state that this field of knowledge has to be better investigated in the future. One of the reasons for this is that it seems to be true to say that homew ork is a part of the school’s judgement and assessment practices and if that is so it is important that all the actors knows what every judgment and assessment is grounded on. That is not the case right now.
