Need to keep track of events, either for yourself or colleagues? Want to let folks know when they can use a meeting room or computer lab? Google Calendar relies on types of events that are date and time specific. You can invite anyone with an email, share a link to the calendar invite, as well as schedule a Google Hangout Meeting. Each calendar event can also have file attachments that get saved in Google Drive. Amazing!
What's more, you can switch Reminders to Tasks. This makes it possible for you to setup a task and date due. These Tasks become visible in Gmail's Task bar.
Visit the Google Help Center for additional information.

Later this month, you and your students will be welcoming a select list of participants, composed of students, school staff, parents and community members. Your students have created a digital program using Google Doc and you plan to attach the link as part of the calendar invite you will be sending out. You also need to share the calendar with edit rights with your department team so they can insert additional attachments to the Google Calendar invite.
To prepare,
- Create a Google Calendar for your Campus titled “Campus Events Calendar”
- Create a Google Doc with the words “Sample Program” and your name on it.
Create a Google Calendar event and be sure to include the following components:
- A Google Doc that you have shared with everyone.
- Invite dbenner@tceatraining.org, preimers@tceatraining.org, jbergland@tceatraining.org, mguhlin@tceatraining.org
Add a task from an email.
- Make the task due tomorrow
- Type a note in the task
- Check to make sure the task calendar was added to your “My Calendar” list
