The My Classrooms feature of our Villanova University home page puts whatever information you wish under the nose of each student in each of your classes without them having to remember any special web address.
Your course home page should consist of links to the important information on other pages so that it is very short and concise, keeping to essentials with details left for other pages below it.
It does not hurt to use the right tool for the right task...
