So much to remember . . .

Did you know that you can create specific calendars in Outlook that are separate from your Outlook calendar and then can look at together (as overlay) or separately (click on the down arrow next to Open Calendar and create “new Blank Calendar”.

You can also create a calendar in the Microsoft App Planner and export that to Outlook.

Another neat tool you can add to your Outlook 365 is Find Time works like doodle poll but better and right within Outlook, try it out!

Those using Canvas and the rest of you who will use Canvas can export that calendar as well

Need assistance, want to see how it works, contact OET and share a calendar!

I blogged about this before but recently had a question come across my desk about creating a calendar to avoid “an organizational nightmare”?  As we head into the final third of the semester it may come in handy when setting up presentation times/dates for students as well as meeting times/dates.

Doodle.com

According to the website “Doodle offers a wide selection of online solutions that radically simplify the process of scheduling appointments, ranging from the group event “poll” that doesn’t require registration to the professional appearance with own branding.”

Who, What, Where & When

Use your Outlook Calendar to help keep your work/life organized.  With many smart phones you can also sync your Outlook Calendar to your phone.  This link from Microsoft gives lots of good tips such as:

Organize Meetings


Simply select a time on your Calendar, create an appointment, and select people to invite. Outlook will help you find the earliest time at which all the people are free. When the meeting notice is sent to invitees by e-mail, each will receive a meeting request in Inbox. When they open it, Outlook notifies them if the meeting conflicts with an existing item in their Calendar, and they can accept, tentatively accept, or decline your meeting by clicking a single button. If allowed by you, as meeting organizer, invitees can counter-propose an alternate meeting time. As organizer, you can track who has accepted, declined, or counter-proposed times, simply by opening the meeting.

Contact OET if you would like to learn more and need assistance in setting up your calendar!
