Easiest Way For Students To See Assignments In Canvas

The easiest and clearest way for students to see assignments in Canvas is through the Calendars button, which is available on their left hand navigation menu in Canvas.

Students can see what is due and when, and click on an assignment for more details or to link directly to the class to complete the assignment. When a student submits the assignment, it will get crossed off on the calendar, indicating that it is complete. If the view is too overwhelming, students can hide or show calendars using the option on the right hand side of this page.

Viewing Only One Section at a Time in Canvas Gradebook

A Growing with Canvas Tip:

Those of you who have opted to create one course for multiple sections will at times wish to see only one particular section in the gradebook.

This may be because you are teaching a rotation course- thus only one section at a time.

Or perhaps you are teaching a class with multiple teachers and you are only interested in seeing the section of students whom you teach.

REMEMBER~ Assignments in rotation courses

should only be assigned to the students currently taking the course!
