The activities block helps you and your students see what content is available in your course such as assignments, forums, and much more. It automatically updates when you add new content to the course. Check out our support video on using the activities block<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faculty, staff, and students have on-demand access to professional development and training courses through our partnership with Infobase Learning Cloud<\/a> (formerly known as Hoonuit and Atomic Learning). Offered as short, video tutorials, Infobase provides content on technology training (Office 365, Adobe, Moodle etc.), research paper writing, career planning, and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For more information on what Infobase Learning Cloud can offer you or your students, visit our Infobase post on Technology@Wooster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faculty<\/strong>: you can use the external tool link to add Infobase content directly to your Moodle course. See our Using the Infobase external tool page in our Moodle Professional Development course for details. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We would like to thank everyone who joined us and the Cleveland-based Microsoft Trainers for our training sessions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you were not able to attend the Organizing Teams Live Events<\/u><\/a> session on Thursday, February 25th, you can still visit the link to watch the recording.
