Planning your term
Today
Today is what opens when you sign in. It answers one question: what needs attention now.
The due list
The heart of the screen, grouped into Overdue, This week, Coming up, and No date yet. Each row shows the title, the course, the kind of assessment, and when it is due: with overdue and same-day items coloured, and everything else deliberately calm.
Alongside your course assessments it lists the personal tasks you have added, and, if you have connected Moodle, Moodle deadlines that do not already match an assessment in one of your courses. A Moodle item that does match is shown once, as the assessment, since that is the one carrying the weight and the grade.
Tapping the circle on a row marks it done. It moves to a Completed today section with an undo, so a mis-tap costs nothing. On a phone you can also swipe a row: right to mark it done, left for its actions.
Add task at the top of the list adds a personal task without leaving Today.
Row actions
The menu on each row opens the full editor for that item: due date and time, status, grade, and notes: or jumps to it inside its course, or deletes it. Deleting is undoable from the toast that follows.
Widgets
Around the due list sit up to five widgets you choose, such as your term at a glance, your next class, the SGW to Loyola shuttle timetable, seat watch, or a focus timer. The due list itself can be moved but never removed.
Customize Today
The Customize control is where you add, remove and reorder widgets, and it tunes the list to how you read:
- Show or hide the weight percentage on each row
- Show full provenance badges, which are hidden by default
- Comfortable or compact row density
- Group by time, or group by course
Announcements
Below the due list, announcements posted by professors through the teacher portal appear for the courses you are enrolled in, with the date they were posted and whether they have been edited since.
