The Home page is the first thing students see when they enter a course. A Home Page that is easy to navigate, contains clear directions for interacting with the course, and communicates contact information will help to provide students the best possible learning experience.
After a few weeks, when the students are used to how everything works, you may want to change the Home page to Modules to reduce the clicks necessary to get to the material.
When getting started with the Canvas Home page, learn to
- Use the Home page with How do I use the Course Home Page as an instructor?
- Layout your Home page with What layout options are available in the Course Home Page as an instructor?
- Select your Home page with How do I change the Course Home Page?
- Show recent announcements on the Home page with How do I show recent announcements in the Course Home Page?
