Objectives

• Research in the tracker, forums, etc. to create a hitlist of the top 10 (or 20) specific usability issues.
• For each issue, identify the problem clearly (screenshots) and clearly describe one or more solutions (incl mock screenshots) for the community to evaluate.
• Create code to solve the problem with the best decided solution (optional, depending on Moodle community thoughts).
• Create usability tests to find new usability issues (optional).
• Take a look at Fluid Project (who we are involved with already) to see where some of their components can be used in Moodle (optional).
