As a Dyslexic student I currently find it dificut to navigte the GCU learn content online.
(I am currently falling behind in my studues due to this)
As I have traversed the subjects in my chosen field I have found that there are many differing methods to how the information is presented to students.

Most of these are based on how the Instructor thinks what they decide is the best method of presentation based on their own idea of how they expect the student to learn and how they expect their presentation to be consumed.
(EG: releasing content on a particular day rather than listening to the students who ask for it to be released at an earlier date.)

As I have found, each subject on GCU learn has a diffrent menu, some base them on weeks, some on subject matter.

It should be possible to navigate each subject on GCU learn no matter the subject and know how to navigate the chosen menu.
I believe GCU wants to be in the top universities tables and I feel strongly that this is a simple change that can be made that would not only help to achieve that but would benifit students from every facet of society.
