See who has submitted homework, review each submission, and send feedback students can read in the app.

Written by Ben Ryoo

After you assign homework, NextKick tracks each student's progress. You can see who hasn't submitted yet, review what students sent, and leave feedback. This guide walks through reviewing submissions and following up.

Before you start

Step 1: Open the homework

  1. Go to Learning Center → Homeworks.

  2. Click the homework title.

  3. Scroll down to Homework Schedule. It lists every student who received the homework.

Step 2: Check each student's status

Use the filters above the list to show ALL, To Do, Submitted or Confirmed. To find one student, type their name in Search Member.

Status

What it means

To Do

The student hasn't submitted yet

Submitted

The student submitted and is waiting for your review

Confirmed

You reviewed the submission and gave feedback

The list also shows each student's Rank System, Rank, Class, Group and Submitted Date.

Step 3: Review a submission and give feedback

  1. Click View next to a student.

  2. In the Homework Submission window, review the student's written answer under Assignment and any photos or videos they attached.

  3. Type your comments in Give Feedback.

  4. Click Confirm.

The student's status changes to Confirmed, and they can read your feedback when they open the homework in the app.

Tip: You can’t edit feedback after you click Confirm, so check it before you save.

Step 4: Follow up or export

Click Action above the list:

  • Send Email: email students by status, for example a reminder to everyone still in To Do.

  • Export: download the list as a spreadsheet.

Step 5 (optional): Notify students when you give feedback

NextKick doesn’t send a notification automatically. To let students know their homework has feedback:

  1. Go to Marketing Tools → Automations.

  2. Create an automation with the trigger New Homework Feedback Submitted.

  3. Choose how to notify students, such as a push notification or email.

FAQ

Can students see my feedback? Yes. Students see it in the NextKick app when they open their submitted homework.

Can I give feedback to a student who hasn't submitted? No. Feedback is given on a submission, so the student needs to submit first.

A student missed the due date. Can they still submit? No. Students can't submit after the due date. You can create a new homework for that student using the Member target.
