Navigating the Content System

The Content System uses an interface similar to the Learning System. Users who are comfortable navigating the Learning System will learn how to move around the Content System quickly.

Content System Menu

This menu includes two navigation views: Folder View and Shortcut View. (Please note that the Folder view takes a longer time to load than Shortcut view.) The system will save this preference and return the user to this view each time they enter the Content System.

Shortcut View

The shortcut view includes buttons to open each content area as well as Portfolios and tools. It does not include direct access from the Content System menu to other tools or to folders nested within each area.

Folder View

The folder view shows much more detail including the folder within each content area and provides the option to expand or close each folder to view the sub-folders.
