RESENDE, Tânia de Freitas. Extension of school day and homework: crossed denouncements. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2018, vol.41, n.1, pp.113-122. ISSN 1981-2582.  https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2018.1.27605.

Many programs to extend the school day in primary school are being developed in Brazil in the format known as shift and countershift. In this scenario, several controversies have surfaced regarding homework. These controversies express broader challenges regarding the implementation of these programs and the practice of homework in our school tradition. Thus, the issues related to homework "denounce" inherent challenges to the way full time school programs are being implemented; and the implementation of full-time programs ends up "denouncing" challenges related to homework, which precede the policies to extend school day. The purpose of this article is to analyze these "cross-denunciations", using data collected in university outreach and research activities developed in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte.

Keywords : Full Time School; Homework; “Shift and Countershift”.
