Special character, Font Size, Text color Adding a link, a table, an image, source, highlight, numbered list, and check spelling Comment: At our VLA Tech meeting we were discussing the changes that need to be made for the LMS to operate more effeciently. Could we remove these task bars from the student side completely and leave all access to all the options for the admin side? Would this eliminate the confusion with the boxes on the student side when answers are being added? Normally we were after fonts and text colors and symbols to add detail to the question. Would the answers need this extension?
 * Becky-**I agree with what has been stated so far; I just want to show my support for the **link feature**. I've already used it to link worksheet answer keys in the answer box on the teacher side. I also don't think the student should be able to even see the "resources tab" in the units unless we want them too. It's a shame that they can.
 * Christy Kelley's Top 10** on the Task bar in order of preference.


 * Susie Fristick's Top Preferences:** Bold, Italics and Underline; Font Size; Text Color; Spell Check; Highlight; Add image, table or picture I also like the suggestion of removing the task bar from the student side.

**Sharon's wishes as a Math teacher:** color, Text Highlighter, Bold, Italics, strike through, spell check. Here's an example of how I use some of the above features: Add 8 to both sides to eliminate -8 ... -8 + 8 - 3x = 19 + 8

**Sharon's wishes on the Admin side**: All of the above + linking, Font, and Size. Some of the other options may be useful also, I just haven't had a need to use them YET!

**Sharon's wishes for the** Students **:** The students should have some tools (with c o l o r too) so that they can get creative with their answers if they want. As the students get more familiar with the tools, they WILL  use them. Here's how //MacKenzie// entered her answer:

She will be able to make 8 bags. 24 32

1,2,3,4,6, 8 ,12,24 1,2,4, 8 ,16,32

Gloria agrees with everyone above. I think that the teachers will be asking the students to use some of the features once they become familiar with the options themselves. Especially, in the courses that require a project or compostion--I guess that is most of our courses!!! I am glad we and the students have some options to choose from.
