Adding course calendars to your computer and mobile devices

A very convenient way to keep track of changes to exam dates, etc., is to add the ZOO 200 calendar for your section to your own calendar on a PC or Mac; any modifications I make will automatically be updated in your calendar. Calendars on mobile devices can be synched with your computer using apps or built-in functions, or can be synched with your devices directly (feel free to ask me if you need help with any of this).

If you have a Google account (it takes about 15 seconds to get one), follow this procedure to sync:

1. Go to either the MW or TTh calendar (see links above)
2. Click on the “+Google Calendar” button in the lower right-hand corner of screen (here’s a screen shot)
3. Click “Yes” when you are asked if you want to add the calendar.

If you use iCal (Apple):

1. In iCal, on the menu bar, click on “Calendar” then “Subscribe” and paste one of these URLs:

   • MW: https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/jhhh52ogv5q9pe5514r6mqoelc%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

   • TTh: https://www.google.com/calendar/ical/6n8806lehkqbom7rn1s6tsld54%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

2. Choose to auto-refresh at least daily.

Note: many calendars, not just Apple’s, support the iCal format. The procedure for subscribing will be similar.
