Actions for one student in a homework report: extra time, another attempt and a personal deadline

How does Edform help you differentiate?

Edform's differentiated instruction tools let you give every student the same activity on terms that fit them. From the homework report you can give one student 25%, 50% or 100% extra time, a later personal deadline or one more attempt, or reset an attempt so they start over — without touching anyone else's settings. When you give the homework, you choose who it's for: young learners get big buttons, questions read aloud and no timer, while older students get a calm layout with flags and a review page. Fix your mistakes lets students redo only what they got wrong.

How to adjust homework for one student

  1. 1

    Give the homework

    Choose who it's for — young learners, middle school, high school or college — and the settings for the whole class.

  2. 2

    Open the student's row

    In the report, open the actions next to the student's name.

  3. 3

    Choose what they need

    Allow one more attempt, add extra time or change their deadline. It applies to that student only.
