Homework

Who this is for: pupils · Where: Homework in the sidebar, or from the to-do list on your Dashboard.

What this page is for

Everything set for you: what is due, what you have submitted, and what came back marked.

The screen, explained

The list shows each task with its subject, deadline and status. Open one to work on it.

Two kinds of homework

Structured — a list of questions you answer one at a time. Multiple choice, short answers, gap-filling, longer written answers.

Topic with comments — the teacher describes the work in their own words ("exercises 4–7 on page 112") and you reply with a written answer, files, or both.

Both may include files from the teacher, and a rubric — the criteria your work will be judged against. Read it before you start.

Common tasks

Answer and save

Type your answers. Your work saves automatically as you go.

Saving is not submitting

Saved work stays with you. Your teacher does not see it and it is not marked until you press Submit. Work that is saved but never submitted counts as not handed in.

Your work is saved as you go, so closing the tab does not lose it. Nothing is sent to your teacher until you press submit.

Attach files

Use the upload area to add photos of written work, documents, or anything the teacher asked for.

  • Up to 10 files
  • Up to 50 MB each
Programs cannot be uploaded

Files that can run as programs are refused: .exe, .bat, .cmd, scripts, installers, macro-enabled Office documents and similar. Renaming does not help — answer.pdf.exe is still blocked, because the check looks at the real ending.

This protects everyone in your school and cannot be turned off. Photograph your work or export it as PDF instead.

Submit

Press Submit. The status changes and the task leaves your to-do list.

Read your mark

Once marked, open the task to see the mark and the feedback. Where questions were marked one by one, you see them individually with what was expected.

Rules and limits

  • The deadline is enforced by the server. Once it passes, submission closes — the clock on your device does not decide.
  • Late work may still be accepted, depending on what the teacher set. If it is, it is flagged as late.
  • Not everything is marked instantly. Some tasks are marked automatically, some by hand. A missing mark usually means the teacher has not marked it yet.
  • Your parents can see this task, what you submitted, and your mark. Nothing here is private from them.

Troubleshooting

"It still says not submitted, but I did it." It was saved, not submitted. Open it and press Submit.

"The deadline passed while I was writing." Submission closes on time. Tell your teacher — they can reopen it or accept it late; you cannot.

"My file will not upload." Check it is under 50 MB, that you have fewer than 10 files, and that it is not a program (see above). Photos and PDFs are safest.

"I lost my answers." Reopen the task — saved work is stored on the server, not in the browser, so it survives closing the tab or switching device. If it is genuinely gone, it was never saved, which usually means you were offline.

"There is no mark and it has been days." Automatic marking may be off for this task. Ask your teacher.
