How to add Tags into your Moodle course

Tags allows you to describe your interests in a way that is easy for people with similar interests to find you. To tell everyone what your interests are to this simply steps:

1. go to your profile editing page
2. enter your interests/tags separated by commas

If a tag you entered already exist, you get associated to that tag. If it does not, a new tag will be created.

I would encouraged you to see this tutorial that I found on Youtube. This tutorial explaining what are tags and how to add them to your course.

Add a Glossary in your Course

This activity allows participants to create and maintain a list of definitions, like a dictionary.

The entries can be searched or browsed in many different formats. The glossary also allows teachers to export entries from one glossary to another (the main one) within the same course.

If glossary autolinking is enabled by an administrator (see Filters for further details) then it is possible to automatically create links to these entries from throughout the course.
