# Materials & Homework

> Share study materials organised into sections, set homework assignments, collect student submissions, and grade them, all inside the tuition portal.

Beyond live classes, the centre gives students study materials to learn from and homework to practise with. Instructors upload materials, organise them into sections, set assignments, and grade what comes back. Students access everything from their own portal.

## Roles and responsibilities

## Study materials

Instructors add materials for a batch: notes, documents, and links students can study at their own pace.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Materials">
    From the staff sidebar, choose **Materials**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a material for a batch">
    Upload or link the resource and attach it to the batch.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Organise into sections">
    Group materials into sections (for example, by chapter) so students find them easily. You can reorder sections and move resources between them.
  </Step>
</Steps>

</Frame>

Students open **My Materials** to browse everything shared with their batch, grouped by section.

## Homework assignments

Homework is set as an assignment with instructions and a due date; students submit their work in the portal and the instructor grades it.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create an assignment">
    From **Homework**, create an assignment for the batch with instructions and a due date.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Students submit">
    Students open My Homework, complete the assignment, and submit it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review submissions">
    The instructor sees every submission for an assignment in one place.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Grade">
    Grade each submission so students get feedback.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Homework field guide

| Field                     | Purpose                           |
| ------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| **Assignment**            | The task set for the batch        |
| **Batch / student group** | The class the homework is for     |
| **Due date**              | When the work is expected         |
| **Submission**            | A student's returned work         |
| **Grade**                 | The instructor's mark or feedback |

## Upstream and downstream dependencies

* **Upstream**: materials and homework both need a [batch](/education/tuition-centre/batches-and-enrolment) of enrolled students.
* **Downstream**: submissions feed the instructor's grading; materials feed the student's **My Materials** library.

## Best practices

* **Organise materials into sections from the start.** A flat pile of files is hard to navigate; sections make the library usable.
* **Set clear due dates.** A visible due date helps students plan and makes late work obvious.
* **Grade promptly.** Timely feedback is what turns homework into learning.
