What is the Calendar Block in Moodle 2?

The Calendar can display site, course, group and/or user events in addition to assignment and quiz deadlines, chat times, and other course events. The Calendar block conveniently displays the Calendar on the page.

 

The Calendar block displays events.

Event keys:

* Global (event viewable in all courses - created by admin users)

* Course (event viewable only to course members - created by teachers)

* Groups (event viewable only by members of a group - created by teachers)

* User (personal event a student user can create - viewable only by the user)

The Calendar automatically displays important course dates.

Hover over a date and it will display information regarding that day with a link to the activity or event details. Activities due dates are automatically displayed in the calendar as course events.
