=== Mock-ups for future development ===

== A word to educators ==
   −
This are mock-ups previous to Walter's implementation. The activity icon and play icon needs to be updated in the toolbar, and also the timer selector.

== A word to developers ==
 +
Reflection is an important part of learning and a good habit to establish in general. An analog to writing descriptions in the Journal -- the text that is shown in the Portfolio presentations -- is writing commit messages in git. It forces you to stop, reflect, and then articulate to others what you have done and why.

== Suggestions for enhancements ==
 +
Manuq made some mock-ups of other layouts. It would be fun to add alternative layout options (or even add support for style sheets).
