In this guide we’ll look at how you can view and assign Homework within the new Teacher App.
The Teacher App is designed to help Teachers complete their day to day tasks, on the go, quickly and easily and is free to download from the App Store for iPhones or Google Play Store for other devices.
View and Mark Homework
From the Modules screen, select Homeworks.
The page will open to a list of your previously assigned Homeworks. This page is split into 2 tabs:
- Directly Assigned – This displays Homework that you have assigned to specific students
- Class Group – This tab displays Homework that you have assigned to all Students within a Class Group.
It will display the last 5 days of Homework by default, but you can change this by clicking on the Calendar in the top right.
Then select the Time Range you would like to display Homework for and click Apply.
You can click on any of the Homeworks to view further information. In the Homework tab you can see the Title of the Homework, the Description, the Subject and the Maximum Score, as well as any Files or Links you included.
In the Students tab, you’ll see a list of all the Students that this Homework has been assigned to with an icon against each to indicate whether the homework is Completed, Pending or Overdue.
You can click on any of the Students to Mark the Homework. Click Save to Save the Mark, this will also display the Homework as Completed.
