ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to review the effects of homework in science education studies in the
electronic database. Moreover, journals published in the electronic database were searched using
the same keyword. 21 studies were chosen related to the effects of homework in the science
education context and analyzed by means of standards obtained from the related literature. A
qualitative thematic review was used in this study. All articles were downloaded and read by the
researchers. Each researcher studied together to determine themes. The themes were decided as
students’, teachers’, and parents’ views about homework assignments and the positive and
negative effects of homework assignments on achievement, and attitudes. Results were reviewed
in terms of the effects of a homework assignment in science education studies. Some implications
of these results were proposed for determining and developing the effects of homework
assignments in science education studies.
