Getting around in Infinite Campus
Infinite Campus introduced their ‘New Look’ user interface in 2022. Here are some tips for getting around in the software. Learn more.
Navigation Structure
All tools within a menu item (i.e., Instruction, Student Information, Behavior) are displayed on a single screen, organized by category. You can quickly see all tools available and understand tool relationships based on their category.
Infinite Campus remembers the last tool you selected, meaning navigating back to the last tool you were working in is as easy as hitting the back button on your browser. Infinite Campus will even retain the student you are currently viewing.
Responsive UI Design
Infinite Campus is designed with a responsive user interface (UI) that resizes depending on the size of the screen you are using. For usability on smaller screens such as a phone, the Main Menu becomes a flat list of tools.
User-Created Menu (Favorites)
You can mark tools as favorites and have these tools populate a separate menu. This allows for easy access to those tools which you find most important and use on a day-to-day basis.
Intuitive Related Tools Toolbar
Many tools throughout Infinite Campus provide a Related Tools toolbar on the right side of the screen. This toolbar allows you to visually see what tools are related to each other and easily navigate to these tools to see related data.
Navigable Breadcrumbs
Breadcrumbs are provided on the right side of the screen when working within a tool. Clicking an item in the breadcrumb will send you to the category or menu item selected.
Student Information Card
Tools focused on a specific student contain an information card that details important student information as well a summary of their enrollment record(s) in the active school year. This is especially useful for reviewing enrollment information without the need to navigate away from the tool you are currently working in.
Searching
In the Search menu, there are several options you can choose from:
Student
The most common Search is for students. You can enter a student ID or the student name (last name first).
Course/Section
Search for course names or numbers with this search tool.
All People
Find Parents, students, or staff
Tool
The Tool search is the easiest way to find any of the tools (screens) that you routinely use.
Type the name of a tool or report to get a list of matches.
