The Moodle Glossary lets instructors create a dynamic dictionary, FAQ, or collaborative knowledge base where entries can include text, images, and videos.
The Moodle Glossary activity is a versatile tool for creating a dynamic collection of course-specific terms, much like a dictionary or encyclopedia. Entries can include text, images, videos, and other media. You can configure the Glossary to allow student contributions, which can even be graded. Beyond a standard glossary, it’s perfect for building an FAQ to address common student queries, and Moodle can automatically link related words appearing across different entries.
