You can create a calendar for your all of your classes or one calendar per class. This calendar can then be embedded into the page for students to easily keep track of due dates. The month mode is useful as well as the agenda mode. Two examples are shown below with our academic calendar. You can leave it so that students can toggle back and forth between the two modes or select it to only show the month or agenda mode. I use the agenda calendar to post due dates, general topic we'll be covering each day, and project or test dates.
