==What is the difference between a Branch and a Branch Table?==
A '''Branch Table''' is like a Question page.  However, a branch table can not be scored and a teacher can not give a response. Both pages have a content area, offer a student choices and these can lead to other pages (jumps).
Many Moodlers call a series of pages in their lesson "'''a branch'''". Usually the student will enter the series by jumping from a page that is not directly before the "branch".  Thus, a student will "branch" off the lesson path from a missed question and visit a series of pages for review before they are returned to the main lesson path again. 
Some Moodlers think of a Branch Table as an index page.  Where each choice sends the student off on a branch.  At the end of the series of pages (maybe just one), the student is sent back to the starting branch table.  This process is sometimes called a classic branch.
Confused yet :)

What is the difference between a Branch and a Branch Table?

A Branch Table is like a Question page. However, a branch table can not be scored and a teacher can not give a response. Both pages have a content area, offer a student choices and these can lead to other pages (jumps).

Many Moodlers call a series of pages in their lesson "a branch". Usually the student will enter the series by jumping from a page that is not directly before the "branch". Thus, a student will "branch" off the lesson path from a missed question and visit a series of pages for review before they are returned to the main lesson path again.

Some Moodlers think of a Branch Table as an index page. Where each choice sends the student off on a branch. At the end of the series of pages (maybe just one), the student is sent back to the starting branch table. This process is sometimes called a classic branch.

Confused yet :)

Are there some examples of Lessons I can see?
