How do I set a different Calendar event date for each section in my course?

To view the Calendar, click the Calendar link.

Click any date on the calendar [1] to add an event; click the arrows next to the month name to navigate to a different month [2].

If you don't want to manually locate the date, you can click the Add icon [3] to add an event or assignment to the calendar.

Enter a title for the event [1]. The date will already be entered, but you can change it if you like [2]. Specify the start and end time for your event [3]. Mention the Location of the event [4]. Make sure that the correct course is selected in the Calendar drop down [5]. Click the More Options button to link to files or other resources related to the event [6]. Click Submit [7].

If you click more options, you will be taken to the Rich Content Editor. Here you can add video, images, and links that will assist students as they prepare for the event. Remember, events are not designed to be graded. If you want to hold students accountable for an extracurricular activity, you should create an Assignment, not an event.

The events will show up in the Calendar. Each section will have a separate Calendar event.

Students will see your event on their own course Calendar. When they click on the event title, they will see a summary page with all of the rich content you've added.

Students will see the Calendar event listed in the Syllabus page. The link will be un-bolded, signifying that it is not a graded Assignment.
