Develop a system to inform the student where they are in the course information. Balance the amount of information. This keeps download times relatively fast while providing a fair amount of information to digest at a time. These basic rules will help you to develop pages for your site that will be effective. Make sure the student knows where they are.
Navigation is very important in a web based course.
If the student can't find what they are looking for in your course, they will have trouble completing the course. While it may be different in a course setting, in general people read differently online and off. Research has shown that when they are online, most people scan text rather than read it.
