• Agenda View: See all of your Calendar Tasks at once and filter by Date, Course, or Category

• Day: See all of the tasks for a specified day in a list from the beginning to the end of your set calendar times. You can adjust these times in the Calendar Settings under  Core Hours.

During a course copy, it is possible to copy in calendar events from the last time you taught the course. Due to this, you may have Zoom links from a previous Semester in your course calendar. As an example, if you taught in the Fall and used Zoom and then copied over all of the calendar events to your Spring course and then adjusted the dates using 'Manage Dates', the Fall's Zoom links will be in your Spring calendar. 

To remedy this, you have three options:

1. When copying your course, choose 'Select Components' instead of copying all of your course over with 'Copy All Components'. Then exclude the calendar entries for Zoom. 

2. When using 'Manage Dates', do not adjust the dates for your Zoom links in the Calendar. 

3. Simply Delete the Events from the Calendar. 

To delete the events from the calendar:

1. Go to 'More Tools' and select 'Calendar'. 

2. Click on the checkboxes next to any Zoom event that has a reference to a previous semester. 

3. Click on the 'More actions' button at the top of the calendar events list. 

4. Select 'Delete'.
