  91. <ol><li> Setting up the system and using it for students and teachers is simplified after systematic usability evaluations
  92. </li><li> when you configure something there should be some clear concise instructions to return to SL and download the configuration. Instead there is a page of meaningless-to-the tutor data. We should probably still show that for the instructors that will want to know it, but demote it)
