Canvas Dashboard Favorites

The Dashboard Card View displays course cards for all your favorite active courses.

Course Cards can help you organize your courses by adding a nickname or customizing the color, which is synced with the color shown for the course in the Calendar.

To change the cards on your Dashboard, you will need to access "All Courses" under the Courses button in the Global navigation.

To add or subtract a course card from the Dashboard, simply click the Star that appears to the left of each course. The star icon acts as a toggle.

Orange Star = Favorite or Card on Dashboard
Blank Star = Course not on Dashboard but still available to user

Note: You cannot "favorite" a concluded course but it will remain in your "All Courses" list.
