Dashboard is your start page when you log in to Canvas. Here are all the courses you have access to – unless you have chosen to hide some. We will get back to how to hide your courses.

To the right of the courses in your Dashboard, there is a column titled To do. Here you can see your upcoming events, with a clickable link to each event.

For example, it could say Assess Coursework Requirements 2, indicating you have one or more assignments to assess, with the common title “Coursework Requirements 2”. If you click this link, you will be sent to the correct assignment in the correct course, and can immediately start to assess.

Add an image to a course on your Dashboard

Many wonder how to add an image to their courses, so it appears on the course button in Dashboard. See the procedure in Canvas guides’ How do I add an image to a course card in the Dashboard?
