Changes for 2023

Left hand sidebar

• My Stuff options have moved to the StudentHub menu at the top of the screen
• Unit specific options - Grades, Participants have moved under the unit heading
• Left hand sidebar now shows collapsible index of the unit resources and activities. It also shows whether the resource/activity has been marked as completed.

Right hand blocks

• Some units have extra information on the right hand side; this area is now collapsible

This shows the left-hand side index of unit material, and the change to the way the resources are displayed. The index shows where you are in the shell, and you can use it to move around the shell quickly.

There is now a more obvious indication of completion status for each item, which is also reflected in the left hand side index.
