Add Event buttons needed on course home page

Currently, as mentioned previously in this forum, users have difficulties figuring out how to add new events to the calendar. This is particularly severe when the miniview block is not displayed.

How about a little Add...  in the title bar of the "Upcoming Events" blocks?

Nice idea! How about adding a small "+" button, much like the " < " and " > " buttons at the top right of these forums?

Yes, a "+" button would be good, but perhaps if someone has a nice "+" icon we could use then that might be even better than a grey button?

New thought: how about a "(add event)" footer in the block? This would be more than intuitive, I think.

I like them in the footer ... perhaps even:

Add an event ...
Go to calendar ...
