Learning Events Tab Navigation

All users can access a Learning Events tab from the primary tab menu.

Some users will have a default filters applied when they access the Learning Events tab. For example, learners will automatically see a filtered view of their events. To remove existing filters click the trash can beside a filter name or use the 'Remove All Filters' option in the left sidebar.

Users can optionally apply a variety of filters to their view.

Check the parent event box to show only parent events for recurring event series that use the parent-child feature (e.g., recurring events used for small groups completing identical activities).

Users can also optionally toggle between a list view and calendar view of events and control what they see using the day, week, month views. Note the date picker to easily move to a specific date.

In Calendar View, Event Icons signal additional information about events.

In List View, user can additionally see the location of events and whether attendance is required.

It is possible to control which days of the week are displayed on the calendar view of events on the Events tab (settings: calendar_excluded_days_events, calendar_start_on_monday_events). To experiment with changing this view, Contact Elentra Support.

Bulk Download Event Files

Learners can download all files attached to learning events for a day or week. This tool is not available from the Month/Year calendar view.  This feature is turned off by default and can be enabled for your institution by contacting Elentra Support. 

When logged in as a student, click on Learning Events in the primary navigation menu. Below the calendar, you will see a Download Event Files button. Whatever is displayed on the screen will be included (e.g., if learners wanted to filter to view one course, they would download the resources for only that course).

After clicking the button they will see a list of all files to be downloaded. Learners will be prompted to confirm the file download and the files will download to their computers.
