Why does the Home Section and Modules Section have the same content in them?
Should I leave all the content in the Module section and delete the other content from the Home section?
This seems to be redundant.
Thanks for your help or suggestions.
Hi @LauraPerault ,The reason why your home page and your modules section are the same is because that is how your home page is set. Do not delete anything from your modules, as it will be deleted from both the home page and your main modules page.
If you're interested in changing the home page so it doesn't display modules, open your course and on the right hand side you should see a choose home page button. Click that, and select your new home page.
Reach out with any questions! Thanks!

To piggyback on the information that @SusanNiemeyer and @NoahBoswell have given you, here is a Guide with additional information:

I hope it will also help!
Hi @LauraPerault -- you likely have your Home set for Modules, which is the Default. I recommend creating a Page and setting it to be your Home.
Check out this 3-part blog series I wrote about Home Pages and Modules (and course menu navigation). I hope you find it helpful for the How and Why 😉

"Home" is what students using a PC or notebook first see when they open your Canvas course. You have several options. Many instructions create a Page. Other instructors set up their Modules or Syllabus as "Home."
What do you want your students to first see when they open up your course?
When I want to create a recording within an assignment, quiz, or page, the recording window always blocks the text that I want to record. It would be helpful to have a smaller recording window for audio-only recordings or, even better, a window that can be moved where it does not block the text. The way it is now, I have…

The line between "skills" and "competencies" gets blurry fast, and "learning how to learn" means different things depending on who you ask. We're putting together an Educast 3000 podcast episode on all of it, and your questions will shape the conversation. Curious how to teach students to learn independently, what the…
On the new "traditional" rubrics, the scroll bar is only at the bottom. This means on a very large rubric with a lot of ratings, I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to access the scroll bar in order to see all of my ratings and/or if I need to make a comment. This is cumbersome and time consuming. On the original…
When in Speed Grader, under the "Grade by question" option, the Next Student and Previous Student buttons no longer work.
