Dashboard and Calendar

When users log in to Elentra they will land on their personalized dashboard. From here they can view their schedule, quickly check their Assessment and Evaluation tasks, access any of the main menu tabs, click on their user icon for personal options, or even initiate an on-demand assessment.

The personalized calendar that displays on the dashboard will show users their upcoming events and can optionally show them additional events scheduled through Communities. Faculty and administrative users also have the option to view all events for specific courses. Academic events can be represented on the calendar in different colours which can be controlled a variety of ways (e.g., colour per event type, per course, etc.).
