Calendars
View the Calendar in a course
On the top navigation menu of your course, select the calendar tab in the upper left.
You can display your calendar in schedule view or due dates view. Switch views by toggling the selector icon in the upper left of the calendar. Schedule view is the default.
Schedule view shows all events on the course calendar, including course meeting times, other course events, and assignment due dates. Selecting "Day" in the upper right will display scheduled events one day at a time. Days of the current week can be seen at the top of the screen - click on a date to see the full course schedule for that date. Selecting "Month" in the upper right will show an overview of the course schedule for the entire month.
Due dates view shows only calendar items with due dates such as assignments, tests, discussions, etc, in a chronological list. It will not display events with no 'due date,' such as regular course meetings. Clicking on an item in the list will open that item, just like opening it from the course content area. Items that are hidden from students in the course content area will also be hidden on the course calendar.

All of your course calendars will combine on this calendar view. The color of the box around the assignment is a visual representation of which course it is from.
