Adding Content to the Calendar

To add content to the calendar, double click on the date when the event or assignment will take place. When you do the following dialog box will open:

Adding Events to the Calendar.png

There are six key parts for adding an event or assignment to the calendar:

1. Choose "Event" or "Assignment": Here you will choose what type of content to add to the calendar. Note: when in doubt, choose to label content as an "event" rather than an "assignment". Anything that is labeled as an "assignment" will automatically generate a column in the grade center.

2. Check the color: The colored band at the top of the box corresponds to the calendar feed. As a result, each course you teach will be automatically labeled with a particular color. If this band does not match the course you are adding content to, see step 5.

3. Insert the event or assignment title: Type the title of the event or assignment here.

4. Specify the due date and time: Change the due date here. You can also specify a specific time range for the event or assignment.

5. Choose a calendar feed: Make sure that this box displays the course that you want to add content to.

6. Submit: Click submit to add the event or assignment to the calendar.
