I want to add links at dashboard in order to convenient for students to use.
But I didn't find the function about customize my dashboard.
How could I customize the dashboard? Is it possible to customize it?
Thank you very much!
Hello,
I don't believe there is an option to customize the Canvas dashboard based on what you want to do. You can, however, customize your homepage and Course Navigation.
Here is an article on how to customize your course navigation: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-manage-Course-Navigation-links/ta-p/1020
On your course homepage, I recommend putting easy-access links for your students. For example, you can include images and hyperlink those images, so they can look like buttons. Below are some example homepages I have created. These examples I have linked content within the course, but you can also link external links. When I taught elementary, I would create buttons for Clever and other websites I have my students regularly use on the homepage.
Hi @kunikotakahashi,
You could use custom JavaScript/CSS as part of your Canvas theme to make customizations to almost any area. Depending on exactly what you want to do, the JavaScript/CSS could be very simple or get very complex. If you do go this route, it would only affect Canvas on the web (not mobile apps). Also, when doing this, be aware that Canvas could always have an update that would completely break your customizations, so it's something you'd need to check on every now and then.

Hi all, When uploading a SCORM package and outputting as an assignment, full screen works within the package. However when outputted as a page, it doesn't. Anyone found a getaround that isn't "just use the assignment option??"
Cordial saludo Actualmente estamos presentando una inconsistencia en New Quizzes al momento de realizar la migración y posterior edición de las evaluaciones. Específicamente, al intentar modificar una pregunta y eliminar una de sus opciones de respuesta, el sistema no permite ejecutar dicha acción. Con el fin de descartar…
Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
We use a pre- post- model to measure learning which requires student-question matching from two time periods. This requires exporting quiz data to CSV to do the analysis properly. (I can get into more detail if needed.) The New Quizzes Student Analysis CSV export has repeated blocks of ItemID then columns related to that…
