I have been working on the UserMenu....

I have been playing around with the UserMenu and various components. I am not sure what interactive tools we need for users to collaborate, etc. I did just add components and menu items to see if I could get them to work. I got the Fireboard component working as a discussion forum area, and I also played around with allowing students to upload weblinks. I put together an A-Z glossary and started a PowerPoint specific glossary. Of course, all of the final work is dependent upon what our team decides we need--but at least I know how to put up most of the components now that allow interactivity. The glossary is set-up so that users can upload terms--so feel free to upload terms and definitions.

I also worked on the MainMenu and reorganized it according to Martin's content map. I suppose we also need a map for the UserMenu once the interactive components and user learning needs are determined.

There are a few issues with the template we have chosen--the submit buttons for many of the components use white text and with our white background, the button text cannot be seen. Is there anyway to change submit button text color in the joomla component??? Anyone know???
