Moodle Terminology

[Half-Dead]

As some of you may be aware, i am in the process of creating a Moodle VLE System for a company to effectively teach a BTEC qualification. What i want to know is, can you create course hiarachy's in moodle? Preferably it needs to go something like this:

 

Course Title: BTEC Award In Engineering

 

Module(s): Health & Safety etc

 

In each module, a series of units.

 

Unit: H & S in the foundry etc

 

Then in each unit, a series of work topics

 

Is it possible to achieve this type of hiarachy in moodle, if so how is it done? sorry, i am a moodle noob

 

Thankyou in advance

Sort of. I think:

 

module = course category

unit = course (set to topic format).

topic = topic

 

Will do what you want. There might be some clever way of doing it with meta courses too, but that eludes me at the moment.

yes or - you could have

module=course category

unit=subcategory

topic =course according to how much information there is in each "topic"
