• Discussed related proposal: https://openedx.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/COMM/pages/5028052994/Proposal+Open+edX+Shared+Design+Collateral?search_id=4eb064f9-ad2d-4cf1-b242-89e0d141167d&additional_analytics=queryHash---56f463d38d17aae4599c81dd3a414cca7372525ca6a3ce4f37a7f9fc782b1c0d

• Discussed naming: some complexities around student-facing / educator-facing names

• Recommendation: Include action in name of button for accessibility so the button name when taken out of context clearly communicates action

  • Non-proximal text in a list of elements is an issue. Abstracted lists of headings/all buttons/headers/links become useless if button names don’t fully convey the abstract action

• Q: what’s the boundary between Studio / LMS / Instructor Tools etc?

  • Discussed in more detail
