How to Use our Learning Space (aka Help with Moodle)

Find the Calendar:

1. From your Dashboard, find a link to the Calendar in the Upcoming Events block in the right hand Navigation Panel. If you can't see the panel, click the black arrow with grey background just below your log in initials.
2. From Home, the Calendar appears in the blocks in the right hand Navigation Panel. You can also click the link in the Upcoming Events block. If you can't see the panel, click the black arrow with grey background just below your log in initials. 

Find upcoming events in the Calendar:

1. Events for the current month are shown in the main panel. 
2. If you're uncertain of the time of an event, open the event details in your calendar. Your profile is set to your home time zone and will display the correct time for you.
3. If the event is a conference call, you can find the call-in number and access code by opening the event.
4. Near the top of the page, a drop-down menu allows you to choose a different month to display.
5. For a quick look at what's ahead, there's a month-by-month display on the right side of the current month display.

Import an event (or events) into your preferred Calendar system:

1. Scroll to the bottom of the Calendar page. Click on the 'Export Calendar' button.
2. Choose what type of events to export and/or select a date range.
3. If you're comfortable importing Calendar files (ical or ics format) into your preferred Calendar system, click on the 'Export' button. If you're uncertain, click on the 'Get calendar URL' button. 
4. Copy the URL and paste it into a new browser tab. It will prompt you to open the file in your Calendar system (example: Outlook). Select this option and it will open Outlook and display the event(s). 
5. If you are adding the event(s) to a browser-based Calendar (example: Google Calendar), choose the option to 'Save the icalexport.ics' file. Then follow the steps to import the icalexport.ics file.
