Annoucements

Receive Notifications From Cougarview⁠

⁠

Receive Notifications From Discussion Forums⁠

⁠

If you are participating in an online discussion forum and want to be able to respond to any questions or responses to your post, you can receive email notifications from selected discussion forums or all forums. This is also helpful if you post a question for the professor in the question forum and do not want to miss the response. Notification notices will also appear in the top-right side of the course. See the image below.

Calendar

This displays due dates of assignments, dates for quizzes, and topic start and end dates for this course only. This calendar can be synced with your electronic calendar in a few different ways, which I have created a tutorial for, should you want to keep organized this way.

⁠

Sync Your CougarView Calendar to Your Google Calendar⁠

⁠

You can sync to other calendars such as iCal but this tutorial shows how to do it with Google Calendar because it is a tool that is free and premium subscription provided by CSU.
