A Perceivant event is a non-graded Perceivant activity. Events you create on the Calendar will not appear on the Assignments page or in the Gradebook. But they will show up on the Syllabus page and student calendars. You can create events with due date times as well as all-day events.
For example, you may create a course event with a link to the readings that you want students to do in preparation for a class discussion in the Calendar. You will not grade students on whether or not they have done the reading, but you are providing the readings on a specific day to help them organize their time more efficiently.
Open Calendar
In Global Navigation, click the Calendar link.
Add Event
Click any date on the calendar to add an event [1]. Or, click the arrows next to the month name to navigate to a different month [2] and select a date.
If you don't want to manually locate the date, you can click the Add icon [3].
Add Event Details
Enter a title for the event [1]. In the date field [2], edit the date if necessary. Specify the start and end time for your event [3]. To create an all-day event, leave the From fields blank so there is no start and end time for your event. If a location is required, enter a location for the event [4]. In the Calendar drop-down menu [5], select the course calendar for the event.
Submit Event
To add a description or link to resources for your event, click the More Options button [1].
If you only want to create the event as a placeholder and add details later, click the Submit button [2]. You can edit your event at any time.
