Schoolwork is an iPad app that helps teachers save time, identify trends, and maximize each student’s potential. Using Schoolwork, teachers can create and send assessments, assignments, class announcements, or study reminders. With Schoolwork, teachers can send any document or file as a classroom assessment. They can review and score student work, and analyze student performance per item. For assignments, teachers can easily share materials, send students to a specific activity in an app, collaborate with students, and view student progress. Teachers can see analytics, insights, and progress information on how students performed, making it easier to individualize instruction based on student needs. Students get one central place to see assessments, assignments, announcements, submit work, and view their own progress.
