Use this page to give homework to a class. The class's parents and students see it in the app straight away.

Before you start

  • The class and its subjects should already be set up in EduHost.
  • Keep any worksheet or reference file ready on your computer or phone if you want to share one.

Steps

  1. In the sidebar, open Homework.
  2. Click Assign homework.
  3. Under Class, click Pick a class and choose the class.
  4. Under Section, choose the section.
  5. Under Subject, choose the subject.
  6. In Title, type a short name for the work, for example "Chapter 3 questions".
  7. In Details, write what exactly students must do.
  8. Check the Assigned on date and set the Due date.
  9. To share a file, go to Worksheet or reference file (optional) and click Attach.
  10. If students must send their work back, turn on Ask students to hand the work in. Then fill in Marks out of. Turn on Accept it after the due date if late work is allowed.
  11. Click the button at the bottom of the form to save and give the homework.

What families see

  • The homework appears in the app for the class's parents and students, with its due date.
  • If you asked for the work to be handed in, they can send a photo or a PDF from the app.
  • If late work is not allowed, they cannot send it after the due date.

Good to know

  • You can also start from the dashboard. Teachers see Give homework there, and the quick add menu has Assign homework.
  • Homework with a due date also shows on the dashboard, so nothing is missed.
  • Only the teacher who set the homework, or the office, can mark it.
  • To check work that comes in, see the article "Check homework students submit".
