There are two kinds of assignments: independent and group. An independent assignment is when you or your teacher assigns a piece of information to you, and you have the freedom to use that information in any way you like: even if it goes against the "official" assignment instructions. The same goes for other assignments that don't usually tell you what to do. Group assignments are always a little tricky since there's always someone else involved in your performance (teachers, peers, family members, etc.). Assignment help refers to a lesson or writing assignment that is assigned by a teacher to the students. The assignment may include reading, reviewing, or research. These assignments are usually given as homework and may have due dates.
