Less  interest in five students to submit their assignment R. P. Kalupahanage 1 , Dr. Sunethra Karunaratne 2 1. Wickramabahu National College, Gampola, Sri Lanka 2. Faculty of Science , University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka Abstract Action research was on chosen five students in grade 10-D who seemed to have less interest in submitting their assignments.

As the first action a home assignment was given to the whole class with a complete information sheet, which included the criteria for marking and a reminder note about the submission date was hung effectively at eye level in the classroom.
