Self-managed learning strategies significantly improved math homework completion for sixth graders. While accuracy varied, students showed academic gains, and parents reported fewer homework problems.

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Behavioral Interventions

Background:

  • Mathematics homework completion and accuracy are crucial for academic success.
  • Students with homework difficulties often struggle with motivation and self-regulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate self-managed individual and group contingency procedures for improving mathematics homework.
  • To assess the impact of self-management training on academic achievement and classroom performance.

Main Methods:

  • Sixth-grade students with math homework difficulties participated in the study.
  • Interventions included self-managed individual and group contingency procedures.
  • Student goal-setting options (self-selected vs. teacher-specified) were compared.

Main Results:

  • A majority of students showed substantial improvement in homework completion rates.
  • Academic achievement and classroom performance measures improved significantly after self-management training.
  • Self-selected performance goals led to greater improvements in homework return rates compared to specified goals.

Conclusions:

  • Self-managed contingency procedures are effective in enhancing mathematics homework completion.
  • Self-management training positively impacts academic achievement and classroom performance.
  • Empowering students to set their own goals boosts homework completion effectiveness.
