Published: 17 October 2016

Dr. Steven Shaw, of our Department of Educational and Counselling Psychology, spoke to CBC's Sonali Karnick over the weekend regarding "homework without tears". 

The Department hosts a five-week public lecture series this fall, Effective Parenting: New Trends and Approaches. The series begins with Dr. Robert Savage's seminar on Monday, October 17, "Unlocking the spelling system of English: How to give all children the keys to literacy".

"Students are at the most risk, or having the most difficulty, often have the most homework," recounted Dr. Shaw in part. The interview includes many helpful hints for parents trying to cope with their children's homework responsibilities. Click here to listen to the interview
