These color combinations make it very hard to navigate a course
Beginning of Changes…………………………….
Faculty could not add their own images/backgrounds for their navigation bars so they had a limited choose of ‘colors’
Widget Tiles still could be changed
Move from 9.4 to 10.0
New President New Font/Logo/New Look
Problems Seen (2010-2012)• No OSD information in the course
• Colors that are not accessible by WCAG 2.0
• Incorrect support information in the courses
• Student can not find student support services or DE support
• Students are unaware of COC, AI, Copyright or general ‘information literacy’
• Students switching between courses and not knowing how to begin or where to go
• Support associates taking longer to resolve problems because they are unable to locate tools
