Preparing Metadata for the Avenue eUnit Catalogue

All modules and eUnits to be added to the Avenue eUnit Catalogue require metadata. This metadata is used to make it easier for teachers to browse and search for eUnits and modules for their courses. When searching or browsing the eUnit Catalogue, Avenue users will view cards with some metadata for each eUnit as shown here. 

Each card shows its theme (at the top of a card), a photo that complements the topic, followed by the eUnit topic/name, the target CLB level, other CLB levels it can be used with, and the name of the organization that developed it.

After clicking on the View details button (i) at the bottom of an eUnit/module card, detailed information about this resource is displayed, for example:

The details screen provides information in the Description and Outcomes section and Contains sections, in addition to the data in the course cards.

Note: The other buttons at the bottom of an eUnit/module card are used to add the resource to the Course Builder request list or to open a preview panel and view the eUnit/module contents.

2. Click on the topic Actions menu the eUnit is in and select Edit topic.

3. Scroll down to the eUnit Metadata and click on it, so it is not collapsed.
