Students can post their math homework using the “Docs & Files” feature so teachers can review their work. They can also ask peers questions using the “Campfire” feature if they are stuck on a problem. Students can also use the “To-Dos and Schedule” feature to increase time management by tracking the assignments they have, and visually see the amount of time left before the assignment’s due date.
