# How do I change the Course Home Page?

You can change your Course Home Page to reflect one of five layout options: the Recent Activity Dashboard, Pages Front Page, the Course Modules, the Assignment List, or the Syllabus.

**Note**: You must set a Front Page before selecting the [Pages Front Page](https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-set-a-Front-Page-in-a-course/ta-p/797) option. Additionally, only Published pages can be set as the Front Page.
