Calendar

 

The Calendar tool allows you to view scheduled events posted by the instructor, and add in your own private entries (the instructor may also enable the function that allows students to post public entries for viewing by the entire class).

The Calendar Interface:

The feature is new to WebCT 3.6 and allows you to view all calendar entries for a selected week. This is a useful function if you wish to view all events for the week at once:

Tip: The "View Week" feature is new to WebCT 3.6 and allows you to view all calendar entries for the selected week.


New Events recently posted since your last visit to the calendar will be displayed in a separate ‘New Events pop-up window":

To view a particular day, click on the hyper-linked date. You can also add private entries to the calendar visible only to yourself, or public entries visible to the entire class (if the instructor permits this option)

To add an entry, click on the ‘Add Entry’ button to enter your information. When you are finished click Add. Private entries will be in italics, public entries in plain text.

Compiling Dates:

You may find it useful to compile a list of dates from you Calendar entries for saving or printing (only public entries may be compiled). To do this, in Calendar View, click on the Compile Option.

After you have selected the range of dates you would like to compile, click on Display. Entries for all of the dates selected will be displayed on the screen – you can download or print these entries using the browser commands under the file menu. You will then be given the option to either compile another set of dates or return to the main Calendar screen.

Tip: You can print your compiled entries by selecting the Print icon on your Browser (or selecting print from the file menu).
