Using the "To-do" list feature as an Instructor

Canvas has a To-Do List feature that allows instructors to keep track of tasks and assignments that need attention. First, access your dashboard after logging into Canvas:

On the right side of your Dashboard, you'll see a To-Do List panel. This panel displays upcoming assignments, events, and tasks across all your courses. To view "To-do" items by course, click on the course card on your dashboard.
