add Student-created Webpages
Each student in a class gets a section of webpages to manage in the same manner that teachers manage their sites. These sections are linked to from the classroom website. Teachers will have the option to approve these pages before they are published or let the students publish their own pages.

add the ability to the video block to encode video as flash
modify the video block to work as a flash player instead of requiring the client to use a video on their local system. This would create additional ways to protect copyrighted video and remove some potential for video being incompatible with local players.

add Student Profiles (Show and Share)
Students can set up informational pages about themselves including photos, files, video and audio. They can flag some files to be part of their show and share, one or more resources that are featured with their identity on the website. Possible additional features would allow for the inclusion of del.ico.us data, or other information from social networking sites.

I have a need to maintain more than one calendar per class so I can organize events in different calendars. I could then post a particular calendar to a particular page in the Pages section.

Let me go straight to my Gradebook (or Dropbox or Inbox)
It takes too long to get to my Gradebook. Currently I have to do the following.
1. Click "Assess" (takes me to my Assessments)
2. Click the "Gradebooks" menu.
3. Click the name of my gradebook.
You should change the Assess tab, so that when I click it a menu appears & can go straight to my Gradebook without going through the Assessments area first. The same applies for the tools in the Connect tab. -

allow domain users to add custom links in the class header.
It would be helpful for domain users to be able to define at least one link that could appear in the header next to help. This would allow for perpetual navigation like links to the organizations help desk, etc.

add export for a student to download all files in dropbox
Once a class is completed it would be handy for a student to be able to download all of their own work into an archived file. Perhaps it would also include all of their messages as .txt files in the archive as well.

add Upcoming Events to What's New
It would be nice to have a short description of upcoming events, perhaps the next 72 hours worth included in the What's New nightly. This way the nightly notification email would include upcoming events and assignments and warn us of important due dates, etc.
