The Dashboard is the area you will get to when you log in to Canvas.

The dashboard will  automatically change to reflect various updates to your Canvas account based on what semester you are in, what you have coming up, etc. Your Dashboard also shows announcements and notifications for all of your current Canvas modules.

When you log into your dashboard, you will see:

  1. You active modules (this semesters’ modules - e.g. the ones that are ongoing at the moment)
  2. Your upcoming list of activities to do. These include assessment activities.
