Once you have added a glossary activity to a course, you can start adding entries, i.e. the content of your glossary.
To add an entry to your glossary, follow these steps:
- From the Glossary page, click Add a new entry.
- Enter the word you want to define in the Concept text field.
- Add the definition of the word or concept.
- If you’ve defined categories in the Browse by category tab, you can categorise your entry here.
- If there are synonyms you want to include with the entry, add them to the Keyword(s) text area. Enter one word per line.
- If you want to add an attachment, such as a picture or an article, you can attach it below the Keyword(s) text area.
- If you want this particular entry to be linked automatically within the course, check the This entry should be automatically linked checkbox. If you select automatic linking, the checkboxes below determine whether the links are case sensitive and whether only whole words are linked.
- Click Save changes to add your word to the glossary.
