Design & Layout
- A logical, consistent, and uncluttered layout is established. The course is easy to navigate (consistent color scheme and icon layout, related content organized together, self-evident titles).
- Large blocks of information are divided into manageable sections with ample white space around and between the blocks.
- There is enough contrast between text and background for the content to be easily viewed.
- Instructions are provided and well written.
- Course is free of grammatical and spelling errors.
- Text is formatted with titles, headings, and other styles to enhance readability and improve the structure of the document.
- Flashing and blinking text are avoided.
- A sans-serif font with a standard size of at least 12 pt is used.
- When possible, information is displayed in a linear format instead of as a table.
- Tables are accompanied by a title and summary description.
- Table header rows and columns are assigned.
- Slideshows use a predefined slide layout and include unique slide titles.
- For all slideshows, there are simple, non-automatic transitions between slides.
