Overview
The Student dashboard is a personalized homepage designed to help students resume learning, explore new products, and stay on track. The layout is dynamic and organized by students’ needs, so each section only appears when relevant.
Key benefits / use cases
Resume learning quickly: Students can pick up where they left off with a personalized layout.
Surface relevant products: Recommended content is shown based on enrollment and progress.
Encourage discovery: The Explore section highlights new products and learning opportunities.
How the student dashboard works
The student dashboard updates automatically based on each user’s progress and enrollment. Sections will appear or hide depending on what’s available for that student.
Jump back in
Who sees this: Students with at least one in-progress course.
What it shows: A list of up to 4 in-progress courses, sorted by progress (highest to lowest).
This helps students quickly return to the content they’re actively working on.
My library
Who sees this: All logged-in students.
What it shows: Up to 4 products the student is enrolled in, sorted by their logged-in catalog sort (e.g., In progress or Name A–Z). Learn how to change the default sort on.
This is a complete view of everything the student currently has access to.
Completed courses
Who sees this: Students who have completed at least one course.
What it shows: Up to 4 courses where all lessons have been completed, sorted by last completed.
This section makes it easy to review or revisit finished content.
Explore additional products
Who sees this: Students with access to public, unenrolled products.
What it shows: Up to 2 available products the student hasn’t enrolled in yet, sorted by the logged-out catalog sort (e.g., Name A–Z or Recommended order).
This section drives discovery and encourages students to continue learning.
Customizing Your Dashboard
You can create and customize a hero section for your student dashboard and product catalog to:
Feature key products or offers
Add a welcome message
Guide students to the right content
Use links to connect students to important tools, resources, or experiences—inside or outside of Teachable.
FAQs
Who is considered a student?
Anyone who has created an account within your Teachable school.
Can I customize what students see on the dashboard?
You can create and customize a hero section and dashboard links to feature key products or offers, add a welcome message, or guide students to the right content.
The rest of the student dashboard dynamically adjusts based on each student’s activity and access. However, you can influence what appears by updating your product visibility, enrollment, and sort order settings.
Why don’t some students see all four sections?
Sections only appear if relevant. For example, a student who hasn’t completed any courses won’t see the Completed courses section.
How is the Explore section different from the catalog?
Explore only shows unenrolled products directly on the dashboard. For a full browsing experience—including filters and search—students can visit the full Browse Products page.
