Cougarnet calendar

The CougarNet Calendar gives you the ability to manage school and course related calendar(s) as well as your group and personal calendar(s) from any computer with Web access. The calendar is automatically integrated with your school’s existing information system and is dynamically updated when you register for, drop, or are assigned to teach a class. As soon as you are assigned to a class, the calendar for the class will be added to your set of calendars. While campus-wide information may automatically appear on the calendar (dates for first day of class, holidays, spring break, finals week and last day of class), instructors can add other important items to the calendar (activities such as quizzes, exams, research paper due dates, field experiences, etc.). This information can then be shared with all the students enrolled in the class.

The Luminis Calendar allows you to manage multiple calendars (your class and school-related calendars as well as your personal calendars). You can also create your own calendars and share them with friends. When you update your calendar your friend's calendar will be updated too. You can also set your calendars to send reminder e-mails before a scheduled event. That way, you and your friends will get a convenient reminder that you or they need to be somewhere.

The Calendar is a web-based scheduling program. Using an Internet browser you can:

• Use your calendar to record events and tasks
• Create and change calendars
• Make your calendars available to other people
• Access other users’ calendars
• Create a Calendar Group (a collection of several calendars, which helps you to manage more than one calendar) With the calendar application you can create or change events such as meetings, appointments, birthdays, or any item with an associated date and time. You can create tasks such as to-do items and set a timed deadline for completion of these tasks. You can set reminders and notifications for events and tasks. You can let other people view your calendars and add events to your calendars.

Calendar Groups: The Calendars tab allows you to look at and even combine one or all of your calendars to check for overlap and conflicts. Calendar also enables you collect several calendars into a set called a “calendar group.” You can think of a calendar group as a composite of multiple calendars. Each calendar group can have a separate name, different privacy settings, and different option settings.

PDA Synchronization: Calendars can be synced with PDAs using PC platform.
