Why not simply set aside some school time for students to work on their own? In highschool, I was lucky enough to have a study hall in the library. It was great because students had freedom to sit where they wanted, browse the books, use computers, do homework, spread materials out on a table when needed.
Some students have too many distractions at home and it may be difficult to travel to a conducive environment. Time to socialize and take part in extracurriculars is also important. The time-management and self-learning skills can be strengthened without the home part.

As a parent of a younger child I think homework is a good thing because it makes it easy for me to track my daughters progress in the different subjects and gives a natural venue for me to sit with her and help her with whatever she might need help with.
