The Calendar tool allows you to arrange and visualize your course events in multiple views and enables integration of course content and your Calendar.
You can use iCal to synchronize the Calendar tool to your personal calendars (such as Outlook and Google Calendar, as well as iPhone, Android, and Blackberry).
There are two different types of events in the Calendar tool:
Availability events indicate the availability and due dates of course objects in the Calendar tool. Once you are enrolled in a course, all objects for that course that you enable to display in the calendar will be visible. You can set due dates for course objects, edit, and delete availability events directly from the Calendar tool.
These are events you create within the Calendar tool.
