One way to help students stay on track, is to post a daily agenda using Screencastify.

You can do this in the following ways:

Create a Canvas Page with your Agenda screencast.
Where can you place the page?
- Option 1: At the top of the module that students are working through and indent content underneath so students can discern where to start.

- Option 2: Navigate to the Announcements page from your Course Navigation, Place the Page from the "Links" area on the Announcement. This will notify students and parents/guardians (based on their settings for notifications) via email and course icon.

- Option 3: Combination of Option 1 and 2.

Canvas Agendas Screencasts should be brief, 3-5 minutes maximum to help students identify what the learning goal(s) and targets are and where to locate information. It is also recommended that you keep your video on when creating the screencast so that students can see your face. You can also have a Google Slide displaying and/or tabs (like Canvas) that you want students to view as you direct them to their learning experience for your course.

See the samples below. It's recommended that the learning targets/objectives accompany the Agenda Screencast; so students know "where they are going, how to get there, and what they need to accomplish to be successful.
