We’re still on our quest to make online learning platforms more fun and engaging! We’ve turned to some existing sites for a little bit of inspiration, and would love to hear your honest opinions about our ideas.
1. How do you guys like the vertical progress bar shown on the left hand side of this site? This kind of navigation could be used to navigate learners through sections of a course.

2. Would you like some kind of animation to show which answers are correct or incorrect when it comes to things like quizzes?

3. We’d love to add some cool transitions and hover effects to the theme. What do you think about displaying course options in a similar style to the cards shown in the GIF below? If a card / course is selected it’ll open with some kind of cool transition.

4. When the user is viewing their course, and scrolls to the bottom of the page, we could include a bold, fun way to navigate to the previous, or next option, as shown below. What do you think?

5. Would prefer if courses are listed in a more interesting way on the theme? For instance instead of listing course options one below each other, we could list them horizontally and include a vertical scroll. What do you think?

6. When displaying course content, what do you think about using a split screen showing text on one side, and images or videos on the other?
