Enter assignments efficiently
Here are some basic tips:
- Copy and paste from your
word processor into yourhomework.com. That way it is spell-checked as well.
- Enter assignments for the
week (or month) all at once. The site will display each assignment by date and
future dates are highlighted.
- Copy and paste
instructions for projects. Parents and students can retrieve another copy
without bothering you!
- Work where you are most
comfortable: home, school or library. Some teachers enter assignments during
the evenings at home or in the school library during lunchtime.
- Ask parents to help you to
enter assignments.
- Students may be able to
take on the responsibility if you teach at the high school level. Note: Use
caution when giving your User ID and password to others. They will gain your
authorization level to enter assignments.
Stop repeating yourself
All teachers experience
the routine of re-stating and re-writing assignments for students who are sick,
traveling, participating in athletics, or simply are irresponsible. THIS IS
TIME CONSUMING! Posting assignments on the Web ensures that students know
exactly what is expected of them. Eliminate student-to-student miscommunication
and excuses. yourhomework.com gives students a way to get homework directly
from their teacher clearly and accurately. Spend your valuable time giving more
meaningful assistance.
Stay organized
Assignments are dated so
you can keep track of what you have assigned in an orderly format. Keep a print
out handy for reference during class. Enter future assignments as well. Being
organized always saves time.
Post for students without Internet access
Teachers can print out the
homework listing and post it in the classroom. This allows students without any
Internet access to take advantage of what is posted on-line.
Print to send home to sick student
Save time writing down
missed assignments for students at home with extended illnesses. Print it out
and send it home!
Parent/Teacher conferences
Save prep time for
parent/teacher conferences with printed assignment listings from
yourhomework.com. You will also save time during the meeting to review
assignments with parents. Highlight or circle missing assignments instead of
re-writing them.
Counselors and tutors
Use assignment listings
when working with school counselors or students with special needs. Save time
by printing and circling missing assignments rather than re-writing them.
