::: Consider customizing a page where the visitor reveals content of interest to them without suffering the loss of context that following a link to another page requires. Expandable frames and hover text or images are two possible techniques. See, for example, the show/hide of the Sugar Learners' Manual on this page. Extra design and care are required to achieve an effective composition and balance the available bandwidth. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:08, 28 October 2011 (EDT)

::::I like all those ideas. Another technique, two or more pages linked by back and forward arrows. The primary page is as fresh and dynamic as possible, picks up from the point of a new learner with no previous knowledge ... links off this page go only to the most useful pages for this user - avoids distraction. Subsequent pages will be useful to the new learner later and can link to more advanced exploration. I like web sites which help the new user get orientated fast. The show/hide technique (above) could be useful for a paragraph on configuration, which is vital on day 1, can be skipped over on subsequent visits, but is in a known place when required again.--[[User:Inkyfingers|Inkyfingers]] 06:41, 29 October 2011 (EDT)

:::::I added a link to the [[Introduction_to_the_Sugar_Interface]] Tutorial to front page. (It provides a visual introduction to the elements described in the text)--[[User:Satellit|Satellit]] 07:21, 11 June 2012 (EDT)

Perhaps we should be sure to work in the 11 points of [[How to present Sugar]] from the beginning, as that is the experience the presenters gained for new learners. --[[User:FGrose|FGrose]] 23:27, 4 December 2011 (EST)
