How Do I Send Students Nudges from the Gradebook?

The Canvas Gradebook offers a simple way to reach out to learners when you notice that they are falling behind in their coursework. 

From any assignment in the Gradebook, hover your mouse over the titles of the assignment, and click on the three black vertical dots, click “Message Students Who”. This is also indicated by the red background color which aligns with the students' name in the assignment column.

By default, this feature will be set to student who “Haven’t Submitted Yet”. From here, you can send a brief message to all students falling under that category and encourage them to submit their work.
