homework assignments

Studies due tomorrow

Homework assignments are tasks given by teachers for students to complete outside of class.

The phrase typically appears in educational contexts, from elementary school through university: I have three homework assignments due tomorrow.

While homework alone often suffices, the fuller form emphasizes discrete, countable tasks rather than study in general.
