introduction

It emphasizes that the high school English curriculum aims to cultivate students' core competencies such as language ability, cultural awareness, thinking quality, and learning ability. As a key part of the teaching process, homework should be carefully designed to improve quality, including foundational, exploratory, practical, and comprehensive assignments. Teachers should design homework based on individual differences and hierarchical development of students, focusing on exploring thematic meanings and practical applications, in order to cultivate students' understanding, application, and innovation abilities.

The problem of designing high school English homework

Three main problems in high school English homework design were pointed out: 1 Neglecting the exploratory nature of homework results in students lacking in-depth exploration of the theme and the ability to solve real problems when completing assignments; 2. Neglecting the practicality of homework, placing too much emphasis on consolidating language knowledge and lacking practical language application, which affects students' emotional experience and language ability improvement; 3. Ignoring the differences in homework, a unified homework design is difficult to meet the personalized development needs of different students, which limits the cultivation of students' key abilities and the application of subject knowledge. The existence of these problems has affected the development of students' core literacy in English subject, and teachers need to explore in depth how to improve homework design to promote students' comprehensive development.

The concept of homework design should be centered on realizing the learning rights of each student, reflecting hierarchical design, and improving the pertinence and appropriateness of homework.
