About Schoolwork assignments
Assignments provide a way for teachers to share information or homework with students. Assignments can consist of:
an assignment title
a list of recipients (an entire class or one or more students in a class)
a deadline
a delivery date
Activities (apps, files, links, hand-in requests and exit tickets)
Instructions (text, files)
Use assignments to send students activities, request work from your students or send announcements. Using the different types of activities available for assignments, you can incorporate a variety of apps into your class instruction.
If your school turned on the Student Progress feature in Apple School Manager, and students work on activities in a progress-reporting app you sent in an assignment, all available progress data is shared with you. Schoolwork displays the data from the progress-reporting app as students work on activities in the app (for example, time spent on the activity, the percentage completed, quiz scores, hints used or points earned). The data available depends on the type of activity, and is defined by the app developer. Every activity that supports progress reporting displays time spent data in Schoolwork.
For document, link, timed app and exit ticket activities, Schoolwork automatically displays information (time spent, number of questions answered) as students complete the activity.
You can publish an assignment to your entire class or to one or more students based on their specific needs. Schoolwork does not support sending an assessment to multiple classes. To assign the same activities and work to more than one class, copy the assignment, then send the new assignment to another class. You can schedule an assignment to be published at a later time or save an assignment as a draft until you are ready to publish at a later time.
Note:
You can have up to 200 active assignments in a class.
Assignments cannot contain a file larger than 2 gigabytes (GB).
