-Coming Soon!
+You can change your language preferences from the Preferences Screen.
+The default language is English. You can change the language of the
+LON-CAPA system language, but homework problems will remain in the
+language they were coded in. Changing languages is a new tool and
+is not fully functional. This tool was put in place for testing purposes.
+If you would like to help with a language that is not available from
+the language list, please submit your suggestion through bugzilla.

 \label{Remote_Menu}
-Coming Soon!
+LON-CAPA can be controlled by either the Remote Control or the combination
+of the Inline Menu and the Main Menu. In Menu Mode, the Inline Menu
+will appear at the top of every page in LON-CAPA. Click on the \underbar{Main
+Menu} link in the Inline Menu to access the Main Menu. To switch from
+the Remote Control to the Main Menu, close the remote window by clicking
+the 'x' in the upper right-hand corner. To use the Remote Control
+instead of the menus, click the link \underbar{Launch Remote Control}
+on the Inline Menu. Please note that you will not be able to use the
+Remote Control if your browser is not configured properly. You must
+have pop-ups, javascript, and cookies enabled for the Remote Control
+to work. If your browser is not configured properly for the Remote
+Control, then LON-CAPA will automatically go into Menu Mode.

\label{Roles_screen}
After logging into LON-CAPA with your username and password, you will
see a screen where you can select your role. LON-CAPA is a roles based
system. You can always use the same login even though your roles may
change. You can be an instructor in one class, a TA for another class,
and an author of resources all with the same username. Selecting ROLES
on your Remote Control or on the Main Menu will bring you back to
the Roles Screen. For students, the word ROLES is replaced by the
word COURSES.
