'''Schoolwork'''<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Caira|first=Wilson|year=2017|title=Definition of schoolwork |url=http://www.dictionary.com/browse/schoolwork |journal= Dictionary.com|volume=|pages=|via=}}</ref> |
'''Schoolwork''' is work assigned by a [[teacher]], [[school]], or other educational institution.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Caira|first=Wilson|year=2017|title=Definition of schoolwork |url=http://www.dictionary.com/browse/schoolwork |journal= Dictionary.com|volume=|pages=|via=}}</ref> The term generally refers to both work completed at home ([[homework]]), as well as work completed during class ([[classwork]]). By a broad definition, schoolwork can be extended to refer to any academic activities at school. Typically, schoolwork is done in class, during the time period allotted by the instructor. However, it may be reassigned as homework, in which case it is done outside of the class. |

It is usually up to the teacher's discretion when assignments are to be completed, and often work that is not finished during class will be assigned as extra homework. Types of work include [[exams]], tests, [[quiz]]zes, and projects as well as normal work, such as [[worksheet]]s, problem sets, or readings. The different types of work could be weighted differently based on a variety of reasons. |
