Teacher-Defined Glossary
Instructors often want to create a glossary of terms that will be easily referenced by students. This is an easy task in Moodle.
Moreover, almost any module of Moodle can be set to hyperlink -- automatically -- to any word or phrase that is stored in or added to the glossary (see auto-linking).
This functionality offers some really rich possibilities for students and teachers.
Glossary items can be grouped in categories. Participants can comment on glossary entries. Entries can be rated using teacher-defined scales. Glossaries can be easily exported and imported via xml. Glossaries can be fully searched. Glossaries can be viewed with different display formats.
