I'm still seeing prior classes on the Dashboard in Canvas.
Prior courses may still appear on your Dashboard after the term starts, and/or you may be missing some current courses.
When you are enrolled in more than one Canvas course, you can customize the active courses you want to show in your Course list. Courses you want to show in the Courses menu are called favorite courses. You can favorite any published course that appears in the My Courses section on the course list page. Course favorites also display in the Card View Dashboard.
When no courses are favorited, the courses list automatically displays up to 20 courses alphabetically in the drop-down menu. However, once you have selected at least one course as a favorite, only your favorite courses will appear in the Courses list.
By default, active course cards are automatically added to your Dashboard. When you are enrolled in more than 20 courses, newer enrollments will replace older ones. This means the Dashboard prioritizes the 20 most recently added active courses. Additionally, if you hold multiple roles in a course, the course with a higher-priority role will be listed.
Note: Courses are always listed alphabetically; you cannot reorder your courses manually.
