Hi Arthur,
I've found that staff like to be able to customize the navigation of a
module but students get confused if one module differs from another.
We role over courses with a standard template but give staff the option
to customize if they want to.
Best wishes,
Steve

Subject: Seeking Advice: Module Navigation Menu Design
Hi,
I am going through a few modules just now trying to help staff get to
grips with the structure of the navigation menu.
I have been of the opinion that if a menu option is not being used, eg
bibliography, assignment, etc it should not appear on the menu list. In
this way staff get to define how they intend to use the system for a
specific module and students get the visual message.
If this was applied by all staff, students would most likely get a
different menu structure for many of their modules. This may cause
confusion, it might not.
Does anyone have guidelines on this issue?
thanks,
Arthur
