auto populate calendar with scheduled classes when they appear in my dashboard

[CarpenterStein]

I receive newly scheduled courses in my dashboard, but can't figure out how to have them automatically added to my calendar in canvas.  Seems like it should be an easy setting to find, ..... Can anyone tell me where I'll find this?

There is a list of courses on the right side of the calendar.  Each course has a box next to it.  When the box is clicked it fills with a color (there are also settings to let you select the color.  Most items with a date in the course syllabus will show up on the course calendar using the color of the selected box.  Be careful to always check the course directly, because some activities, such as practice quizzes, do not show up on the calendar
