At my school, we make the distinction between a class (section) and a course. A class is a group of students that meet at any given time. A course is the subject that you teach.

For example, if you teach 9th grade English, 10th grade English, and 11th grade Math, you have three courses, assuming that our English curriculum is quite different from one year to the next.

Once in a course, we use groups to split up classes (or sections).

This allows a.) all related course material to be displayed in one place, b.) teachers to separate students for grading if necessary, and the teacher doesn't have to update multiple resources/pages with the same material.

Similarly, we have multiple teachers who teach the same content in the same courses.
My apologies. Your syntax was not correct. After looking at your site, I realized that there should not be a space between the instance and .block_html.

The following should work:

#inst8.block_html .content {
background-color: #9cb6de;
}

The only way that I can test this is to completely replicate your steps, so I can only guess, based upon my prior experience.

I would venture that your javascript isn't loading.

Have you set the correct path to the .js file in your theme header.html? Shaun's theme is a good model for this.
