Calendar

Overview The calendar tool allows instructors to display the due dates for assignments and assessments, as well as schedule lesson plans and distribute course material to students. It also allows students to create their own private events.

Access Calendar Tool	TOP
From the course menu on the left, click on Calendar. You can see due dates, linked assignments or assessments and lesson events all scheduled out on the calendar.

Add Events to Calendar	TOP
The Calendar tool allows you to add personalized events. These are events that can be seen only by you. Click on Add Entry. Fill out the necessary information about the entry. WARNING: Because Blackboard sessions timeout after 30 minutes of inactivity, create your content in a word processor and then copy & paste the content into Blackboard to prevent losing work. Also avoid using special characters ( @ # % & ; ) Select Private. Click Save.
