In this tutorial, you will learn how to add a glossary to your course menu, enabling you to provide users with a list of terms and their definitions. A glossary helps clarify key concepts for learners, offering a handy reference to enhance their understanding.

You can add terms to the glossary either manually, one word at a time, or more quickly by importing an Excel file containing the words and their corresponding explanations. This makes it easy to manage and update the glossary as needed.

Example
For instance, if you're offering a course on digital marketing, you could create a glossary containing terms like “SEO” (Search Engine Optimization) and “PPC” (Pay-Per-Click), with their explanations readily available to learners.

Click on ‘Courses’ in the menu on the left.

Click on ‘Editor’ in the bottom left corner of the course where you want to add a glossary.

In the editor, click on ‘Knowledge Items’.

Click on ‘Glossary’.

Enter the desired name for your new glossary. For clarity, you could name it 'Glossary'. Select ‘Glossary’ from the dropdown menu and click on ‘Create’.

Go to the new menu item you just created and click on the ‘View’ button to start adding words.

Click on the ‘Add Word’ button.

Note: You can only add one word at a time.

Add the word you want to include and enter a description in the field below it. Once you’re done, click on ‘Create’ to add the word to the glossary.

Click on ‘Add a Category’, type in the name of the category, and click on ‘Add’. You can drag and drop categories to reorder them as needed.
