Homework

Setting work for a class and seeing exactly who has ticked it off.

Homework in Alviyora closes a loop that a homework diary never does. A teacher posts work to a class, learners tick it off as they finish it, and the teacher can see — before the lesson, not during it — exactly who has and who has not.

Who can do this

Manage Homework to set it — Teacher holds it. View Homework to see it — teachers, learners and guardians all hold it.

Homework, filtered by subject, class and due date.

Setting homework

Academics → Homework.

Choose the subject and the class

The pickers list the subjects and classes you are assigned to teach.

Leave the class blank to set it for the whole grade; pick a class to set it for that class alone.

Give it a title and a description

The title is what appears in a list — “Exercise 4.2, questions 1–15”. The description is where the detail goes: which textbook, what to bring, what “show your working” means this time.

Set a due date

This is what orders every list the homework appears in, and what a learner’s “due soon” is measured against.

Post it

It appears immediately for every learner in the class, on their dashboard and in their homework list, and for their guardians.

What a learner sees

Their homework list, ordered by due date, with what is due soonest at the top and a tick box against each item.

Ticking is the learner’s own record that they have done it. It is not a submission and it does not upload anything — Alviyora does not collect homework files. It is the digital equivalent of ruling a line through the entry in a diary, with the difference that the teacher can see it.

The homework list on a phone, which is where a learner actually checks it.

What a teacher sees

Open a homework item and you get the completion list: who has ticked it and who has not, as a count and by name.

Two minutes before the lesson

Open the item on your phone on the way to class. You walk in already knowing which six learners have not ticked it, instead of finding out by asking forty of them.

Treat it as a signal rather than as proof — a learner can tick without doing the work, and one can do the work without ticking. It tells you where to look, not what to conclude.

What a guardian sees

Guardians see their children’s homework, with the same due dates and the same completion state. A parent can see on Sunday evening that Tuesday’s Maths is outstanding, which is the whole point.

Editing and deleting

A homework item can be edited after posting — a corrected page number, a moved due date — and the change is immediately visible to everybody it was set for.

Deleting removes it and its completion ticks. Prefer editing where you can: a learner who ticked something that then vanished has no way to know why.

Homework and the class it belongs to

Homework is attached to a grade, optionally narrowed to a class, and always filed under the current academic year and a subject. Two consequences:

  • A learner who moves class mid-term sees their new class’s homework, not their old class’s.
  • A class that is deleted takes its class-specific homework with it, rather than silently widening that homework to the whole grade.
