1. Design Essentials for your Course• Treat the ‘Subject’ page’ as expensive ‘real estate’ as if it were an expensive piece of land. Use folders and web pages wherever possible • Use subject ‘Title’ and topic ‘Headings’ to guide students• Use ‘Activities’ rather than static content where appropriate• Take care with wide images on the subject page

Design Essentials for your Course• Avoid long resource / activity titles as it takes up valuable space• Use ‘Labels’ to guide students and manage expectations • Avoid large chunks of text – this is a general web design guideline. People scan web pages and tend not to read more than two paragraphs• Avoid overuse of ‘Blocks’, less can be more• Keep the ‘Subject’ page consistent.
