- Busy work - Busy work is a term for schoolwork, coursework, or homework that keeps students occupied without teaching anything constructive or interesting. Examples might include hastily put together 'projects', which are given to the student to keep them busy if the teacher is absent and a substitute teacher is present, word searches featuring lists of specialized vocabulary words, end-of-the-year portfolio project, or lab assignments with many questions that only serve to take up time: while exposure to jargon or terminology may be important, using a word search as a teaching method is unlikely to help students appreciate and comprehend the meanings and contexts of the words.
