Homework and assignment tracking that keeps up with every class
Teachers post an assignment with a due date, total marks, and attachments. Students submit online, and teachers grade every submission from one list.
Included in Orbit at no extra cost, along with every other module.
What changes when Assignments moves into Orbit
- Assignments are announced in class and forgotten by evening.
- Submissions arrive by email, WhatsApp, and paper, all at once.
- Nobody can see who submitted late and who never submitted at all.
- One inbox for submissions. Work stops arriving through email and chat.
- Visible progress. See who's pending, late, or done for every assignment.
- Faster grading. Every submission sits next to its grade and status.
A science project with a Friday deadline
The teacher posts the project on Monday with a brief, a rubric attached, a Friday due date, and 20 marks. She turns off late submissions.
By Friday evening her list shows who submitted, who didn't, and who was late. One student without a device hands in paper, so she uploads it on his behalf. She grades from the same screen and sends one back for resubmission.
