Canvas course announcements banner
Students sometimes overlook Canvas course announcements because they simply forget to check for them. Make it easier for them to notice and read course announcements by adding the most recent announcements as a banner to their Canvas homepage with the “show recent announcements on Course home page” option in each course’s settings. You can read the guide for this feature from the link below
