You can change the display color of each calendar to help organize them.
Click on the calendar icon in Global Navigation/My Blackboard or go to Tools-> Calendar from within any course or organization.
When you click on the Calendar, you will see all of the events in one calendar - by day, week, or month - and you can choose which calendars you want to view by checking and un-checking the name of the calendar on the left side of the screen.
Everyone can create calendar items in their Personal calendar. You create a calendar item by clicking on the date in the calendar. It will appear in your Personal calendar.
Only instructors can create items in Course calendars. When items are created with due dates, they are automatically added to the Course calendar.
