Here you can view calendar using a personalised view which can be changed by going into edit mode. Using this view you can double click on the assignment to view the assignment.

When you click on the assignment it will you to the assignment itself it acts as a shortcut rather than launching the application separately 

Public view which shows all assignments set to classes, though not individuals. This can be used for both on public websites and for overall views. This view is limited as it will only display the name of the teacher and homework title, but not allow you to view the assignment directly.
