Tip 2 Making Appointments in Google Calendar
Easy way for parents to schedule a conference
Saves time coordinating available times for conferences
Gives parents / teacher the freedom to choose days and times to better suit their needs
- Keeps you from double booking conferences
Here's a link to a tutorial video on YouTube from lynda.com: http://youtu.be/YJ97hx8-mdA
Create an Appointment slot
- Determine the day and time that you want to add an appointment by right clicking on the time
- Select the correct calendar from your drop down menu
- Select Appointment slots - Offer as slots where you pick the amount of time
- Give it a Name (like Parent Conferences) and click on Edit details.
Edit Details
- From here you can choose to repeat the days of the week that you plan to offer conferences and the date that you wish to stop adding conferences.
- Click Done
- Click Save
Share the Appointment Slots
The link for the Appointment will be at the top of the page (Link this to your website)
- When parents click on the link from your website they will see this…
They can then make an appointment.
If you need to talk a day off the calendar, click to edit the appointment and simply delete that day.
