Cleaning Up the Syllabus Builder Interface

September 06, 2016 | 0 Minute Read

In addition to making significant improvements to the printed version of a syllabus in CoursePlus, the CoursePlus team has also cleaned up the Syllabus Builder tool interface to make it easier on the eyes. We've removed a lot of visual clutter and extra whitespace so the whole page has a leaner, more readable look. Sepecifically, we've:

• Taken the sidebar of suggested sections and put it into a drop-down button at the top of the page
• Removed some of the suggested sections in the sidebar because they were never used in the past two years
• Reduced the box sizes and font sizes of section headers
• Reduced blank space between sections
• Provided a "Collapse/Expand All Sections" tool so you can quickly see all the sections on the page
• Removed the "See Student View of the Syllabus" button because that's available from the "Syllabus" menu at the very top of the page

We hope that these changes make it an easier tool for everyone to use!
