Why keep it simple?
- I suggest you use a very simple page design and navigation for course sites
- In my opinion, that means…
** a home page that acts as a course diary
** a contact form
** a page with downloadable files such as the scheme of work
- the course diary should have carefully chosen links added each week at the top of the page so students can find extra material about what is freshest in their minds
- Jakob Nielson’s Altertbox summarises the reasons
- Frank Spillers disagrees with Nielson but his main gripe seems to be Jakob’s writing style
