Creating a Calendar Event and adding Content

This guide shows how to manually create a Calendar Event in the Course Calendar and add a link to specific Modules, Activities or Course Materials from Content.

Please note:

• Course Materials and Activities are automatically added to the calendar when you set a due date.
• One week before each course period begins, the location booking for each lesson is published in TimeEdit – and automatically pushed as Course Calendar Events in DTU Learn.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the calendar in your course.
2. Click on 'Create Event' or edit an existing event.
3. Click on 'Add Content'.
4. In the pop-up window you can see everything that is on your content page. By clicking on the circle in front of an item, you add a link to that item to your calendar event. After selecting an object, click on 'Add'.
5. When you are done editing the rest of your calendar event, click on 'Save'.
6. The complete event can now be seen by clicking on it in the calendar and then clicking on 'More...'.
7. The calendar event contains a link that leads to the earlier selected item on the content page. If you do not add a description to the event, the description from the linked content page is included and updated in case of changes on the content page.
