Usability #3037
Too many activities for some "simple" tasks/not activity focused
0%
Description
General user comment
- too many clicks and page refresh for some activities
- program isn't focused around activities. That is it is somewhat difficult to do something like adding content to a course. You have to switch back to the repo, create content, publish it. The modularity of the software forces the user to switch between tasks and forces some administrative activities - i.e. manage categories, move objects, avoid name collisions, publish objects, etc. For "little" objects - i.e forum posts, announcements, etc, this is a bit too much work with many of those "small" objects that can't really be shared or reused anyway. At least most of the time.
For example:
- add intro
- add announcement
- answer forum topic
- ...
takes too much work

Updated by So ... going to the announcement tool of a course, clicking publish, entering the announcement and confirming / publishing it is too much work? Somehow I get the feeling you're going about things in a different way. I presume this because of "You have to switch back to the repo, create content, publish it." which simply isn't true :)
That being said, some things really could / should be simplified.

Updated by Right enough. This is kind of a meta comment which tries to aggregate together many more specific comments. So announcement is possibly not the best example.
A lot of those have to do with Course/Weblcms actually.
For example if you want to create an object from WebLcm, the "publish" screen happens a lot and in most cases you simply confirm without changing anything. That being said there is a patch already for that.
