1.2 Course Navigation Menu

Overview

You determine which course elements are visible to students on the main course navigation menu. In any course where you have instructor access, you set the navigation preferences by clicking on Settings, located at the bottom of the main course menu. Once you're in the Settings area, use the Navigation tab to see a visual representation of your course menu (pictured below); this menu allows you to easily drag and drop items, enabling you to control what is--and is not--visible to students in the course. Click Save when you're finished and the new menu configuration will take effect immediately. Try it in your own sandbox course.
