Under "Courses", we should make the "Under Construction" apology more concise, and just write "Interested in starting this at your school? Contact Us."
Rearrange how the universities are displayed and accessed:
Option 1: Bring the different universities to the homepage. From the homepage, you can click on your university and directly go to its course listings. This would decrease the difficulty of accessing notes.
Option 2: Only display the university which the user attends. This would reduce complexity and clutter.
Users shouldn’t need to scroll far down the page just to see their university. Maybe have the user’s university displayed at the top of the list.
Don’t list universities that have no courses registered.
Allow the users to view what lectures are in each course without loading a brand new page, create a hierarchical view of the courses. (Expand the course listing all on one page.) Overall, if a user can click each school to expand its course listing in a hierarchical view, many of the above problems with space efficiency would be solved.
Organize the courses in a logical way, perhaps alphabetically by subject. (It is also important that the course titles are standardized in the first place.)
