Link To HomeworkNOW

This help section explains how to link your website to HomeworkNOW.


Linking Your School Website To An Individual Teacher's Assignment Page

To link to an individual teacher page you have a couple of options:

Option 1: Link to a Branded Homeworknow.com page - this means user will be taken away from your site to the HomeworkNOW branded assignment page, just as if they were viewing the assignments from the public homework directory. Below is what a branded HomeworkNOW teacher page looks like.

To use this mode, replace XXXXX w/ teacher username.

<a href="http://my.homeworknow.com/teacher/XXXXX">Teacher Name</a>

Option 2: Link to teacher assignments in unbranded mode - this means that link will open a browser in new window, which is not branded w/ hwnow logo, and no navigational links (confines user to your site). All they can do when they see a page in unbranded or print mode is to close the window.  Below is an example of what unbranded mode looks like.

See below for link example, replace XXXXX w/ teacher username. Be sure that this link opens a new browser window. Notice the new window target in the link.

<a target="_blank" href="http://www.homeworknow.com/fetch?type=print&teacher=XXXXX">Teacher Name</a>

You may use the above direct link techniques in any way you wish (ie, through textlinking, through HTML forms, etc.)


Linking Your School WebSite To Your School's HomeworkNOW Directory

There are three ways to link your site to your school's HomeworkNOW Teacher Directory: Branded, Unbranded, and Compact modes.

Option 1: Branded Mode - this will display all teachers registered in your school using HomeworkNOW in the branded HomeworkNOW format (shows HWNOW logos, and links). Below is an example of the branded mode (this is the view you see from the public HomeworkNOW directory.

To do this, you must create a HTML link in the following format, where XXXX is your school's HomeworkNOW ID number.

<a  href="http://www.homeworknow.com/fetch?hwnowid=XXXXX">Link Text Here</a>

Option 2: Unbranded Mode - this will display all teachers registered in your school using HomeworkNOW in the unbranded HomeworkNOW format (no external hwnow logos, links, etc.) This format is good to use on your web site in frames, when you want to confine users to your domain only. Teacher pages are displayed in 'print' mode, meaning they open in a new window, contain no HomeworkNOW logos, links, etc. and can be close via link to return to the directory view. Below is an example of what the unbranded view looks like.

To use this view, you must create a HTML link in the following format, where XXXX is your school's HomeworkNOW ID number. The below code sample is for a HTML link, you may also use the HTML below as a frame set source, to embed it in your site via HTML frames.

<a  href="http://www.homeworknow.com/fetch?hwnowid=XXXXX&view=unbranded">Link Text Here</a>

Option 3: Compact Mode - this will display all teachers registered in your school using HomeworkNOW in a compact unbranded format (no external hwnow logos, links, etc.) Teachers are displayed in a drop down list. This format is good to use on your web site in iframes, when you want to confine users to your domain only. Teacher pages are displayed in 'print' mode, meaning they open in a new window, contain no HomeworkNOW logos, links, etc. and can be close via link to return to the directory view or preceding page Below is an example of what condensed mode looks like..

To use this view, you must use the following format, where XXXX is your school's HomeworkNOW ID number. The following example is an IFrame example - allowing you to add a teacher directory to any of your existing web site pages.
