Blackboard Learn Using the Calendar The calendar is a great way to keep track of all courses at the same time. It is also linked to your coursework, so assignment due dates are automatically populated and accessible straight from the calendar. You can get to the Calendar by navigating through My Blackboard on any page. Click on your name in the top left and then the calendar icon. Or, if you are in a course, navigate to the Course Tools panel and click on Course Calendar. You can view the calendar daily, weekly, or monthly by clicking the appropriate buttons in the top-left corner. All classes are populated on the calendar as well as your personal calendar. Each class calendar can be toggled on and off by un/checking the box to the left of the course. To add a new event to the calendar, click the plus sign in the top left corner. Events that coincide with due dates have a check-sign next to them. By clicking the event, you can either Grade or Edit the assignment or change the Due Date. You can also change the due date by dragging and dropping the assignment from one day to another. Office of e-Learning: Academic Affairs
