By now you have probably had the opportunity to explore your personal Calendar. If not just click “Calendar” at the top left of your email screen.
Your Calendar has several views available to you. On the top right you will see tabs for Day, Week, Month, Next Week and Agenda. Along the left side is the time frame.
To add an appointment click on the day and time….
A new dialog opens which allows you to to enter a Description and choose which Calendar (we are coming to that!!) you wish to add the event to. You may finish by clicking "Create Event" or "Edit the event details" for more controls.
Your Google for Education account offers far more flexibility by allowing you to view several Calendars. Each school has its own Community Calendar where you will find information such as vacation days, marking period start and end days, fund raisers, field trips etc. To add your schools calendar to your personal view follow these simple steps....
From Calendar choose "Settings" (upper right of your screen)
Select "Search Public Calendars" and type your schools information
After entering the school information press "Search". then click "Add Calendar". Your search may return more than one choice. Be sure to add the appropriate calendar.
You will now find two Calendars listed, your own and the schools....
If both Calendars are checked then you will see an overlay of both Calendars in your personal view. To view only one simply uncheck the other. As we move forward in our rollout you will have the option to add scheduling Calendars for room use such as the Media Lab and Library. You will also begin to see options to add important dates to your Calendars from within email messages. Those of you with cell phones can even opt to have your appointment alarms sent to your phone as text message alerts.
