Abstract
The aim of the present study was to combine the findings of experimental studies conducted between 2000 and 2019 on the effect of homework on students' academic achievements using the meta-analysis method. Ten papers that were reported by Google Scholar and Higher Education Institution (YÖK) National Thesis Center databases between 2000 and 2019 were included in the study based on certain criteria. The study also included subgroup analyses, as well as the determination of the general effect of homework on academic achievement. The findings of the present study revealed that the Hedges’ g value was significant; it was calculated as 0.970, which indicated the general effect of homework on student achievement. Furthermore, the analysis demonstrated that the effect of homework on student achievement differed significantly based on school level and various sub-dimensions reported previously.
