Tech Tip Tuesday #23



This week's Tech Tip Tuesday is a Google Calendar tip.

Google Calendar is switching to "new calendar" on February 28th. Many of you have already made the switch. If not, you will see a blue "Use new Calendar" button at the top right of your calendar. A few high school teachers had the opportunity to walk through "new calendar" using the Get started with Calendar course with me on Friday during our professional development time. If you missed out, check out the course and let me know how I can help you with your Google Calendar journey. 

Now that you are utilizing Google Calendar, wouldn't it be nice to get an email every morning with all your events for the day to remind you of what's on your calendar? Guess what?! You can!

How to Set Up a Daily Agenda in Google Calendar 
Please note: These directions are for "new calendar."
- In Google Calendar, look at the calendar menu on the left and find a calendar you would like shared in a daily email.
- Click on the three dots to the right of the calendar (if you hover they will magically appear) and click "Settings and sharing."     
- Scroll down until you see "General notifications" and in the drop-down box next to "Daily agenda" select "Email."     
- Repeat for each calendar you would like shared in a daily email, all calendar come in one single email.

Need more? I made a video tutorial that shows you what these emails look like and walks you through the process.

How are you using Google Calendar? What are your favorite tips and tricks?
