It's CI for your homework. Surely your teacher will only look at your finished work?
Seeing your mistakes might be useful in reassuring the teacher that you did the work yourself, rather than simply plagiarising the solution from somewhere else.
Do technical writers within Google use Gerrit, or whatever their Perforce based review process is called, as a core part of their collaborative workflow like coders do?

Sorry, professor, I simply don’t make mistakes.
This type of system seems obvious for programming courses but I wonder how intuitive it is for pure documents; the classic essay or report style assignments. At what age do kids embrace Markdown as the single source of truth for their documents?

I have used google classroom for courses before and I really like it. It's pretty easy to use but even so, it does create a fairly big mental over-head for most students. It's easier to forget that these days many university students have no computer experience outside of smartphones. I had one class where an assignment, a paragraph of text was submitted variously as a google document, a spreadsheet, a power point presentation and a screenshot from a phone.
Git for none programmers is out of the question.
This seems like a great way for newcomers to learn the basics of `git` though GitHub. A great move by GitHub to try to capture this market of users who may not yet be comfortable with subversion control.
That being said, I'm a little too annoyed that "GitHub" is synonymous with "Git" in many students' (and professors'!) minds…
I can't really knock it, but at the same time, this has been Microsoft's strategy for a long time, with students learning Office in school but no competitors, so they take it with them in their private and professional life.
It's a difficult one though, given that both github and office are pretty standardized / ubiquitous everywhere.
