Accessing Checklists

Using checklists in D2L can significantly enhance student learning by providing a structured, itemized guide to course tasks and deadlines. Faculty can use checklists to organize weekly activities, assignments, and key milestones, giving students a clear overview of what’s expected and when. This tool boosts accountability and motivation as students mark off completed items, creating a visual sense of progress that reinforces their commitment to the course. Checklists also help reduce confusion, especially in complex or fast-paced courses, and support students with organizational challenges by simplifying course navigation and promoting independent learning.

To access Checklists, select Checklists from the Assessments category on the navigation bar.

The Checklist tool allows you to create checklists that you can use to highlight important aspects of your course and make students accountable for completing certain tasks. You can setup multiple checklists with many different categories and items.
