Initial Course Genie Impressions

The software is easy to use - particularly for those whose only exposure to computers may be word-processing. Without messing around with the CSS templates the supplied layouts seem adequate but uninspiring.

As a fan of Jakob Nielsen I'm approaching the project with a keen awareness of usability issues and the first problem I see is the incompatibility of data "chunking" creating small but manageable chunks of data and the navigation issues this creates. Specifically the menu created on the left side may become long and hard to follow.
