The Calendar lets you view everything you have to do for all your courses. You can add your own events and reminders to stay on top of things.
The Calendar also includes access to the Scheduler, which your instructor may use to schedule office hours, presentation sign-ups, etc.
To access your prior term course sites, navigate to your "All Courses" list and find them listed under "Past Enrollments." This list is always accessible from the "All Courses" link in your "Courses" flyout menu.
