Short-Term vs. Long-Term Assignments

Short-Term Assignments

Short-Term assignments are a good fit for immediate classroom use and shorter homework windows.

Use for classwork, homework, review, and makeup assignments
Designed for shorter assignment windows
Helpful when you want students to complete something soon
Good for one lesson, one skill, or one short practice cycle

Long-Term Assignments

Long-Term assignments are a good fit for ongoing study plans and larger practice sequences.

Use for longer units, extended review, tutoring, and enrichment
Helpful for study systems that students work through over time
Good for repeated use across a longer instructional window
Works especially well for programs like SAT 400

What You Give Students

Students only need two things to begin:

The Short URL for the activity
The assignment code you created in the dashboard

Example

Short URL: rudolphacademy.com/fig-lang

Assignment Code:BVDR4S

Class Period Number:4

You can write the Short URL and the assignment code on the board, post them in Google Classroom, or place them in your learning management system. Be sure to tell students to enter their class period number so class period reports appear in your dashboard.

What Students Do

Once students receive the Short URL and assignment code, the process is simple.

Go to the activity page
Enter their name, assignment code, and class period number
Complete the activity
Submit or finish the activity as designed

This system keeps access simple for students while still giving teachers a reporting structure. Be sure to tell students to enter their period number so that class period reports appear in your dashboard.

Where to Find the Short URL

Every coded assignment activity on Rudolph Academy includes a Short URL that teachers and students use to access the activity quickly.

The Short URL is located in the upper corner of the activity page.

What to Look For

Label: Short URL:
Position: upper corner of the page
Format: short, easy-to-type link (example: rudolphacademy.com/us-presidents-game)

Important Notes

Only coded assignment activities include a Short URL
If there is no Short URL, the activity is not part of the coded system
Students should always use the Short URL (not long browser links)

Tip: Before assigning an activity, open the page and check the upper corner. If you see “Short URL:” on a page with a student sign-in, the activity is ready to use with an assignment code.
