Bob Blume offers advice on managing student homework
Bob Blume, a secondary school teacher, educational influencer, and author based in Bühl, Germany, has shared insights on how parents can better support their children with homework. In an interview, Blume addressed the varying approaches parents take, ranging from complete non-involvement to doing the assignments for the children.
Blume suggests that there is no one-size-fits-all rule for timing or location. While many suggest doing homework immediately after school, he notes that students often need a break first. Regarding the environment, he suggests that a traditional desk is not always necessary and that locations like the dining table might work better depending on the child.
To find the most effective routine, Blume recommends experimentation and open communication with the child. He also noted that starting with easier tasks can help students enter a productive flow, rather than always beginning with the most difficult assignments.
