Enhancing the Usability and Accessibility of Your Avenue Course

The default arrangement of Avenue’s course shell prioritizes functionality over usability – but poor usability can introduce unnecessary frustrations for your students and act as a barrier to their learning experience. Luckily, there are numerous practices you can apply to make your course shell easier to navigate and use for both you and your students. The session will also discuss features in Avenue to improve the accessibility of your asynchronous course for all learners.
