Importante

• Podemos modificar las opciones por defecto configurando el módulo del glosario.
• Es muy recomendable que se establezcan las categorías previamente para facilitar su clasificación.
• Si es una entrada de un alumno y el glosario requiere revisión no será pública hasta que la realice el profesor.

Sugerencias

• El concepto debe ser claro y conciso.
• Podemos añadir gráficos y enlaces en la definición.

Adding a new entry, you have to fill in two fields. Others are obligatory.

Concept (mandatory)

Here you should insert the word/concept, the definition of which you wish to create.

Definition (mandatory)

As its name suggests, this field should contain the definition of the word/concept.

Keywords

Each entry in the glossary can have an associated list of keywords (or aliases). Enter each alias on a new line (not separated by commas). The aliased words and phrases can be used as alternative ways to refer to the entry. For example, if you are using the glossary auto-linking filter then the aliases will be used (as well as the main name of the entry) when deciding what words to link to this entry.

Categories

The default setting is 'Not categorised'. However, if you do add new categories, they will display here giving the possibility of choice.

Enabling automatic linking in a entry

Turning this feature on will allow the entry to be automatically linked, whenever the concept words and phrases appear throughout the rest of the same course. This includes forum postings, internal resources, week summaries and so on.

If you do not want particular text to be linked (in a forum posting, say) then you should add <nolink> and </nolink> tags around the text.

To be able to turn on this feature, auto linking must be enabled at glossary level.

Case sensitive matching

This setting specifies whether matching exact upper and lower case is necessary when performing automatic linking to these entries.

For example, if this is turned on, then a word like "html" in a forum posting will NOT be linked to a glossary entry called "HTML".

Whole words matching

If automatic linking is enabled, then turning this setting on will force only whole words to be linked.

For example, a glossary entry named "construct" will not create a link inside the word "constructivism".

Attachment

You can choose to add an attachment file to the entry. This is useful if you are creating a photo gallery.

To delete the attachment you need to go to the files option of the administration block and look in the directory called moddata and the sub-directory called glossary. The file for each entry will be stored in each individual sub-directory.
