Your Classes On your dashboard you can see all your current and previous courses you’ve enrolled in, including online classes.
Syllabus Not all of your professors are going to utilize Canvas as the main online portal for your academics. However, most will at least include the syllabus on the sidebar! Usually it will be displayed on the site but there will also be a link to download it for offline viewing!
Not all classes will look the same! As you can see, not all Canvas pages are going to look the same, so it is important to keep in mind what the most common features are among pages and read the physical syllabus that you get in class to be the most informed!
Due Dates If you click the calendar icon located on the left hand side, it will pull up all your assignments that are due. If you click on a specific course, located on the right, all the assignments for that course will pop up
Inbox Canvas is also a way for you to ask your professors any questions you may have through the inbox icon. Any messages that they send will be sent here to your Canvas inbox. You can also turn on the notification button in settings so that the messages will go to your email as well.
Download CANVAS You can download Canvas on your smartphone device!
