This homepage example uses links to module introduction pages so students can navigate from the homepage.

Students can still go to Modules to navigate through the course. However, in this example the intention is that students click on the links below and are taken directly to a page that introduces the module. Then they use the "Back" and "Next" buttons at the bottom of each page to navigate through the module files and activities.

This example would also be appropriate for a page based course.

Another Option might be to break the modules down by class. Each link would link to an introductory page. That would look like:
