I would like to raise the idea of creating a filter function in the to-do list, so that instructors can filter only their classes in the to-do list, which limits the notification 'noise' on the landing page.
Hi @AmandaCrouch79706548,
To officially submit a suggestion for improvement, please complete the process outlines on the How do I share a contribution (formerly Idea) to the Collaborative Roadmap? guide. Just posting to the discussion forum is not sufficient to have the idea officially considered.
On a side note though, the to-do list should already only show classes you're a teacher (or student) in. If that's not the case for you, I'd suggest talking to your school/institution Canvas team, as they may have some unusual enrollment processes contributing to the "noise" you're seeing on your lost, and they may need to adjust those more than Instructure making a global change.
I hope this info helps!

@AmandaCrouch79706548 Please try my Chrome Extension, which includes advanced filtering features that allow you to filter by course, section, assignment name, student name and many other fields

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
We assign coursework by section, and teachers enter the transfer grades on each assignment from before the student’s enrollment date. However, those grades do not satisfy the modules’ “Submit the assignment” requirements. Students still have to go back to the beginning of the school year and submit blank documents and…
A Discussion assignment needs to be able to have more than 2 due dates. A discussion is just that--a back and forth. To be an effective kind of assignment, Instructure needs to modify them so they can have 3 or more due dates. Students also need to be notified when someone posts within their group. Currently, students turn…
