The Notifications Dashboard is one way you may be able to view notifications for all the courses you teach or are enrolled in. If your institution uses it, the Notifications Dashboard appears as a secondary tab on the My Institution tab.

Information is presented in boxes called modules, such as My Announcements, To Do, Needs Attention, and What's New. The system generates the information in each module.


Types of notification modules

By default, the Notifications Dashboard displays these modules. You can add more modules.

  • Needs Attention: Displays all items in a course that require some type of interaction. Instructors, teaching assistants (TAs), and graders see student submissions that need grading such as assignments, tests, surveys, discussion posts, and journal and blog entries.

Instructors, TAs, and graders see the users in each course who have past due items and who have generated Retention Center alerts.
