Dashboard Views
About Dashboard Views
The Dashboard is the first thing you will see when you log into Canvas. On the Dashboard you will see all the current courses that you are enrolled in. You can return to your Dashboard at any time by clicking the Dashboard link in Global Navigation. If you are enrolled in a course but do not see the Course Card, your instructor may not have published the course yet. Contact your instructor for verification.
There are three Dashboard views: card view, list view, and recent activity.
Card View: Displays course cards for quick access to all your favorite courses.
List View: Displays all course to-do items in an agenda view.
Recent Activity: Shows you important recent activities from all of your courses including announcements, discussions, assignments, and conversations.
Changing Your Dashboard View
To change the view of your Dashboard, select the options menu (three dots) and choose the view of the Dashboard that you would like to display.
