Why you keep forgetting assignments (and how to fix it)

If you keep forgetting assignments, the problem usually isn't you. Canvas is great at storing your coursework, but it was never designed to answer the one question that matters: what should I do today?

Its to-do list only thinks about right now, announcements bury due dates, and big projects hide until they're suddenly due. You're left stitching it together in your head — and heads forget.

The reliable fix is to get everything out of your head and into one place that updates itself. When every due assignment is always in your plan, forgetting stops being possible.

Pair that with a quick weekly check — ten minutes on Sunday to catch anything new — and the surprises disappear.
