hi everybody my name is mr. Campbell
from mr. Campbell rocks welcome back to
another tutorial today we're gonna talk
about how to create appointment slots in
Google Calendar and this is 20/20
version so first of all we're gonna go
to calendar google.com or if you go to
your waffle you can go down here to
where click on calendar it'll take you
to the same place so what we're gonna do
let me just make this fullscreen is we
want to go up here to where it says
create and the little plus Google sign
and we want to create a new event you're
going to see three options for an event
and out of office or appointment slots
so those are the three options that you
have when creating a an event now what
we're gonna do here is we're just going
to do tests for YouTube and then we're
gonna click on appointment slots now
when we have appointment slots it's
going to ask us what duration do we want
those appointment slots to be in so
let's talk about some real-world
examples right if you're a school and
you're doing checkout with your teachers
maybe you're doing parent-teacher
conference with again next year right
where we're at with kovat and all those
things maybe you're doing them digitally
on over meat or zoom and you need to
have appointment slots that way maybe
you're doing progress reports with
individual students and their families
like midterms or different things like
that maybe you're a business and you're
doing some performance reviews or
different things like that maybe you
have office hours as a teacher and you
want to set up appointment slots where
students can sign up for appointment
slots any of those reasons would be a
great way to use or utilize appointment
slots in Google Calendar so when we go
here we're gonna pick a date obviously
and we're gonna have a time and when we
click on time it's going to give us some
options right so let's just do 11:00
p.m. to let's do sorry 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.
and you'll notice once I start clicking
on time
we're gonna have the time slots here now
I can I can manually change how long I
want these slots to be so let's just say
they're 15-minute slots that's a little
narrow for my point of view but and
we're gonna click on save so what this
is going to do is it's going to create a
calendar and I'm just gonna tell you
before we go there
it's gonna create a calendar that you
can send out to your class to your
faculty to your department to whoever is
going to be signing up for these slots
and then they can go view all of these
slots and sign up for whatever time they
want and then I'll show you what it
looks like on the back end so you can
manage all of your appointments so we're
gonna do 15 minute slots right so we
should have 12 of them three hours 15
times you know 4 or 15 / an hour as 4
times 3 is 12 so we're gonna save that
and when we go here this is what we're
going to send out we want to invite
those people in our calendar so this is
the Akala nurse appointment page and
what it's gonna do is it's gonna take
you up to calendar google.com but it's a
different version and so you can see
here I have these time slots here in
15-minute increments so when a person
signs up this is the time slot that
they're going to sign out for so I'm
signing up for the 4:15 to 4:30 p.m. 1
right now when I go and view and edit in
my calendar you'll see that I have
signed up for this time so let's try
with again I'm going to go here and
we'll do a different time and I'm
actually will have a different email or
just a different header so you can see
that it shows different times I'm going
to click Save go back and look on view
and calendar so you'll see that both of
these events are scheduled here and here
right now if I go back if I'm another
person and I go back and look at the
calendar you'll see that these times are
already taken like I cannot join and
jump into these times right I can
because I'm in it if I was a guest this
time would disappear for my calendar so
what does this look like on the back end
once you have all of your times filled
well if I jump into my regular calendar
and I'm gonna do the month view on June
1st we have departments checkouts so
we'll go to the day and we'll go to June
1st so you can see each one of our
departments is meeting with the
principal and the assistant principals
I've put the department head on here and
then the department head went back into
the calendar event invited everybody
into that calendar slot so we're meeting
with all of our departments that are
half an hour long we're going over their
schedules for next year what we expect
over the summer some of the things that
we want them to prepare for next year
obviously depending on how things start
that you're off but it's actually this
is how you send the calendar invite out
in Google Calendar if this save you time
energy and frustration I would love if
you would like share and subscribe if
your hair most likely it's because
you're an educator I love you I
appreciate you and I'm glad that you're
here
