Homework

Assign it Tuesday; read the results Wednesday morning.

Assign it to the class. It grades itself before you get to it.

The tool needs a free account. Browsing the lessons it is built on does not.

When you’d reach for it

Assigning is not the part that hurts — grading is, and grading a set of thirty by hand is the reason practice gets assigned less often than it should.

Start from the topic or the class, pick a task set, and send it. Answers come back marked, so what is waiting for you is the picture of who struggled rather than a stack to work through.

How it works

1

Start from the topic

Browse to the standard and pick its task set — no digging through content first, and no assignment that exists before you know what is in it.

2

Send it to the class

Assign to a class you have set up, and students open it without any further setup on your side.

3

Read what came back

Marked when it arrives, per student and per problem, so you can see which problem the class fell over rather than which students did.

Why not just ask a chatbot

This one is table stakes rather than a wedge, and we would rather say so. It is here because the other four point at it — the plan names practice, the re-teach names a misconception — and a row that says "assign practice" has to lead somewhere real.

What it does not do

Better to know now than to find out on a Sunday.

  • Free-response items go through a separate checking path that can need a human eye. Most of our task sets mark deterministically end to end; where one does not, the work waits for you and you are told either way.

  • Sending to a class needs a class. There is no roster-free version of this the way there is for Exit Ticket.

What it needs: A standard with a task set. Available across Grades 4–12.

What it leads to

Homework is complete on its own. These are the other four, and the moment each one becomes worth having.
