The presence of opening homework reviews in mathematics classes are associated with higher achievement.

Berliner (1986)In Pursuit of the Expert Pedagogue

We need to know under what conditions opening homework reviews are needed and when they are not needed that is, why do teachers choose to use a homework review following some assignments and not others? We need to know what cues in classrooms speak clearly to teachers and say "Stop! Go into your review routine."

Berliner (1986)In Pursuit of the Expert Pedagogue

We also need to know what cues during the review speak clearly to teachers and say, "Stop! This review is over."

Berliner (1986)In Pursuit of the Expert Pedagogue

In this study of the opening homework review, the expert teacher was found to be brief, taking about one third less time than a novice.

She was able to pick up information about attendance, about who did or did not do the homework, and to identify who was going to need help in the subsequent lesson.

She was able to get all the homework corrected and elicited mostly correct answers throughout the activity.

And she did so at a brisk pace and without ever losing control of the lesson. Berliner (1986)

Berliner (1986)In Pursuit of the Expert Pedagogue

If we were to repeat that study today, we would make two changes. First, we would certainly attempt to describe the planning context that made possible the Coach’s concise, apt, and codable behavior. ... he had made clear in his autobiography (Wooden, 1988) that the economical teaching we admired so much was hardly improvisational. Rather, he saw it as a byproduct of the careful planning that created each season an improved-by-his-own-research basketball curriculum implemented with exacting detail.
