Progress Bar:
You will be able to easily keep track of your progress through the website using both the Course Progress as well as the Bookmark widgets. For each page on the website that you read through, the counter will be incremented so that you can at a glance see how many pages you have completed. The counter will be incremented when: You have read through the entire page, from top to bottom. Quickly scrolling to the bottom of the page will not increment the counter. The widget will calculate the read time at 200 words per minute. The bottom of the page is when the Social Media links are visible, as shown in the image to the right.

When you first arrive at the website and you are ready to create a bookmark, click on the red "Save" button.
This will change to a green "Saved" button to indicate that the bookmark has been created.
When you thereafter scroll on the page, or navigate away from the page, the blue "Back" arrow will become active, meaning that you can then go back to your bookmark.
When you click on the blue back arrow, it will take you not only to the web page, but also the correct location on the page.
This will work even if you shut down the session and come back to the website at a later stage.
To create a new bookmark, repeat the process.

Menu:
Each node is a page. Start from the top-level node before going the next level down as each parent node is a page with a summary or introduction to the children or sub-menu pages below it. The menu is highlighted on each level for the page that is open, so you can easily follow the menu trail of where you are on the website. Some menu items go to the same page where the information would otherwise be duplicated. Some pages have the same name but present the information in a different context.
