Important Navigation Locations
A lot of the common menu items have been redistributed to the Navigation Bar at the top of the page, the More tab in the User Menu bar at the top of your course, or the More tab in the course Settings bar, leaving just links to course content in the left sidebar. The sidebar has been renamed to the Course Index, and now includes a full, collapsible list of course content.
Most importantly for you will be:
The Navigation Bar
At the very top of your page.
My Courses will look much like your previous home page wi t h you list of courses.
The User Menu
In your course, located on the right side of the Navigation Bar at the very top of any page on your site.
This drop-down menu will get you to your profile, grades, celendar, messages, etc.
Edit On/Off
At the top right, just beside your login icon.
Just click to turn editing on and off.
The Course Settings Bar
Just under your course name.
Adjust the settings for your course, and see your enrollees, and get to the grades and reports for the course.
The More menu tab
in the Course Settings bar
