The Course menu appears on the left side of a course Web site. This frame holds buttons or text links to areas within a course and is visible on each page within the course Web site. Content and tools can be accessed from the Course menu but managing content and tools is done through the Course Control Panel. The Instructor can customize the appearance of the Course menu as well as the content and tools available to Students.
The Course Control Panel, located under the course links or buttons, only appears to users with privileges to manage some aspect of the Course.
