I think the new layout is very bad for teachers and students.

The grid was much easier for students to access materials, and for teachers it allowed us to easily find what we needed. This layout feels designed by AI and is nowhere near intuitive. My entire department is incredibly disappointed especially after piloting and approving the World History 1200 course in our district. Not to mention its harder to see what has changed.

    Hayden - Thanks for the feedback and I'm sorry that you find the layout challenging. While the old layout did allow you to see EVERYTHING that we offered, we had a lot of teachers say that it didn't really provide the instructional design - or the what do I teach first - approach that they needed. It's definitely going to be a learning curve to get acclimated to the new system, but we are here to help. If it would be helpful for a member of our team to hop on a call with your PLC and walk you through the changes in depth, just reach out to team@oerproject.com and we can set up a time to connect.

    I really prefer the old layout - is it going to be leaving the website anytime soon (i.e. should I download everything??) or can I just keep using the old curriclum?

    Kendra Nielsen The previous version of the Big History course will be available for this school year, then it will no longer be available. So, yes please download anything you'd like to keep!
