About Infobase

Infobase (formerly Hoonuit) has a robust library of eLearning content designed to meet the needs of college campuses, including supporting student success, driving retention, and building faculty preparedness. Hoonuit features resources on distance and blended learning, student success, instructional strategies, accessible instruction, software and technology tutorials, and much more. 

As an instructor, you can curate a playlist of tutorials and add them directly in your myLesley course. You may add your tutorials directly within a Content Area or you may add them to an item.

Add Infobase Tutorials to a Content Area

Adding Infobase Tutorials via the Build Content area is the easiest and more straightforward way to add Infobase content to your course. It also allows you to link the tutorials to the Grade Center for easy grading.

To begin, navigate to the location in your myLesley course where you would like to add the tutorials and click Build Content at the top of the page. Select Infobase Tutorials.

Enter a Name for your tutorials and an optional Description.

You have the option to make your Infobase tutorials gradeable. If you will not grade your students on their participation, click Submit at the bottom of the page to continue

If you will be grading your students, scroll down to the Grading section. For Enable Evaluation, select Yes. Select the points possible for this assignment, make sure it is visible to students, and enter a due date.

Click Submit to continue. 

You will then be brought back into your course. You will now select your tutorials. Locate the Infobase link you just created and click on it to launch the Infobase integration.

Infobase will open in a new browser tab or window. Locate the training you wish to add to your course. You may also use the Search box to easily locate your item. Click on the + Content button to select your tutorial.

This will bring you into the tutorial. Use the checkboxes to select all of the tutorial videos you wish to include. Once you have selected your videos click Submit.

You should then see a Submission Successful! notification. Click Back to Course to return to myLesley.

Add Infobase Tutorials Within an Item

Adding Infobase Tutorials within an item allows you to add additional context to the tutorials or to put a link to the tutorials directly inline with your content. Please note that you cannot make this type of Infobase tutorial gradeable.

To begin, navigate to the location in your myLesley course where you would like to add the tutorials. You may wish to edit an existing content item or create a new one by going to the Build Content menu and selecting Item. 

If you are creating a new Item, give the Item a Name and enter your description or content in the Text area. Then place your cursor where you would like the tutorial link to go. Click on the Add Content button tool in the text editor. 

This will bring up a menu. Scroll down to the Additional Tools section and select Infobase Tutorials.

This will open the LTI Media Link window. Enter a name for your media link and click Submit to continue.

The Infobase link will be added to your content item as a preview. It will not yet be a clickable link and you will select the tutorials after you have finished creating your content item.  Add any additional content or information to your item and then click Submit at the bottom of the page.

You will then be brought back into your course. You will now select your tutorials. Locate the item you just created and click on the Infobase link to launch the integration.

Infobase will open in a new browser window or tab. Locate the training you wish to add to your course. You may also use the Search box to easily locate your item. Click on the + Content button to select your tutorial.

This will bring you into the tutorial. Use the checkboxes to select all of the tutorial videos you wish to include. Once you have selected your videos click Submit.

You should then see a Submission Successful! notification. Click Back to Course to return to myLesley.
