Step-by-Step Guide to Assign Homework in Worksheetzone
Follow these clear instructions to assign homework effectively. Each step walks you through the process – from choosing the right worksheet to monitoring student progress – so you can make the most of Worksheetzone’s interactive tools.
Step 1: Choose a Worksheet
- Then, click “More Options” → “Share” → “Assign”.
- Or, from the Worksheet detail screen, simply click “Assign” to begin right away.
Note: Only interactive worksheets can be assigned. PDF-only worksheets can be downloaded but not assigned.
Step 2: Configure Assignment Settings
After clicking “Assign”, a pop-up will appear with customizable options:
- Assignment Title: Keep the worksheet’s original name or change it to a custom title for clarity
- Start Date & Due Date: Control when students can access the homework.
- Layout of Assignment: Choose between Each Question (one at a time) or List of Questions (all visible at once).
- Timer: Add a time limit to keep students focused.
- Participant Attempts: Allow one try or multiple attempts for mastery.
- Instant Feedback: Decide if answers are shown right away.
- Detailed Feedback After Submit: Let students review responses after completion.
- Late Submissions: Allow or block late turn-ins.
You can edit most settings until a student has started the assignment.
Once you finish customizing the assignment settings, click “Assign”. You will be taken directly to the assignment’s report screen, where you can monitor progress and access sharing options.
Step 3: Add Co-Teachers (Optional)
You can invite co-teachers to help manage the assignment:
1. Enter their email address.
2. Assign permissions, such as:
- Ending the assignment
- Changing settings
- Commenting on reports
- Editing questions
This is perfect for collaborative or shared classes.
Step 4: Share with Students
Students can access the homework in three ways:
- Direct Link: Copy and send to students.
- Join Code: Students enter it directly on Worksheetzone.
- QR Code: Students scan with their device for instant access.
You can also share directly to Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams, or WSZ Classroom.
Step 5: Track Student Progress
Once students start, open the “Report” tab to monitor performance:
- Overview: Check scores, participation, and time spent.
- Leaderboard: Compare results in real time (if enabled).
- Individual Reports: See detailed student answers and accuracy.
- AI Insights: Get automatic suggestions for reteaching or follow-up activities.
Step 6: Report Options
From the “Report Options”, choose how you’d like to share results:
- Share Report: Generate a view-only report link (or invite collaborators) so others can see the assignment’s performance overview and individual results.
- Email to Parents: Send a parent-friendly summary with each student’s status, score, and time spent. Select recipients, add an optional note, then send directly from the report screen. Parents will only receive their own child’s report, not the rest of the class.
