The review of the literature indicates that communicative out-of-class assignments facilitate learning through purposeful language use. The information gathered supports the premise that communicative out-of-class tasks enhance learners’ rate of response to homework assignments. In addition, the results indicate that goal- oriented communicative tasks make students reflect on their own learning, and that homework complements the teaching and learning process when it fulfills the learners’ interests and needs.  Este estudio investiga cómo los trabajos comunicativos fuera de clase, en lugar de la tarea regular, pueden incrementar el porcentaje de los estudiantes que realizan la tarea en los cursos de conversación de la Universidad de Costa Rica. La revisión de la literatura indica que los trabajos comunicativos fuera de clase facilitan el aprendizaje a través del lenguaje con un propósito definido. La información recopilada apunta a que dichos trabajos mejoran la respuesta de los estudiantes hacia la asignación de tarea.
