3. Calendar (Kalender)
On the page there are two selection menus: Schedule and Due Dates. In "Schedule" you can view submission deadlines. As a teacher, you can also add time of lectures and various sessions for your courses, so that the students can add them to their calendar in the app. In "Due Dates" you get an overview of all submission deadlines for a selected month.
