Specifically, the method aims for tasks set as homework to meet the following five conditions: • VARIED. In addition to post-topic and pre-topic tasts, it requires similar amounts of review, organization, and production tasks. • SPECIFIC. The homework tasks should be described by the mental work they involve and the content they address. • WORTHWHILE. The teacher transmits the usefulness, interest, importance, and applicability of the homework tasks they set. • WEEKLY. Homework is set weekly and the students establish timeslots in which to do it. •. EVALUATED. The homework is marked/corrected weekly, in the classroom or individually, identifying weaknesses and strengths.engCreative Commons Attribution- No Comercial- ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Home studyLearning methodsbookopen access10.17979/spudc.9788497496360
