The Course Overview Lite block is faster and lighter replacement for the default Course Overview block. This block will attempt to first load a course list from the internal moodle navigation followed by a redundant fail-over of ajax course loading and finally falling back to the default behaviour.

• Ajax course detailed overview
• Active course highlighting
• Users can hide specific courses
• Users can reorder the course listing
• Customizable alert area
• Toggle simplified and detailed course views
• Improved page load speed
