I would presume it means to submit your homework to your teacher.

But as StoneyB says, we normally say "turn in" or "hand in".

In general, to "give in" means to surrender, to let someone else have their way. Like, "Al wanted to go the car show but his girlfriend Mary wanted to go to the ballet. Finally Al gave in and they went to the ballet."
