DeskDrop is the simplest way to give homework and get it back. Give an assignment with a due date and files. Students take a photo of their work or upload a PDF and hand it in from their phone. You see at a glance who handed in, who is late and who hasn't done it, then review each submission as Solved, Incomplete or Not solved and leave a note the student sees. FOR TEACHERS • Give assignments with a description, a due date and up to 5 photos or PDFs • See who handed in, who is late and who missed it • Review submissions and leave feedback • Give the same assignment to another class in one tap • Send announcements and documents, such as answer keys, to several classes at once • Student analysis: hand-in rate, on time, late and missed for every student • A calendar of due dates • Add students with a 6-character invite code, no email address needed FOR STUDENTS • Join your class with the code your teacher gives you • Hand in your work with the camera, from your photos or as a PDF • See what's due, what's been reviewed and your teacher's notes • Get notified about new assignments, reviews and announcements PRIVACY FIRST Student accounts hold only what homework needs: no email address, no phone number, no location. No ads, no tracking, no analytics. Anyone can delete their account in the app. WHEREVER YOU TEACH Available in 23 languages, with dark mode, and on the web at hw.meozturk.com with the same account. PRICING Teacher accounts start free with one student. For more students, choose a monthly or yearly plan for up to 4, 9, or 19 students, or unlimited. Students never pay.
