Blackboard Support
📅 See due dates and events from all of your courses in one place.

The Calendar in Base Navigation gives you one centralized view of every course event, due date, and schedule. You can view your calendar by day or by month, filter what appears using the settings panel, and add events to one course or several courses right from this global view.

🗓️ Using the Calendar

  1. Schedule / Due Dates - toggle between the Schedule and Due Dates views by selecting these buttons.
  2. Previous / Next Month - select the left and right arrows beside the month name to move to the previous or next month.
  3. Day / Month - choose to view a full month at a time, or zoom into a single day's activity.
  4. New Event - select the New Event button (+) in the upper-right corner to add an event to your global calendar or to a specific course (or courses).
