Here at Lincoln University, NZ our definition of a course is different to that of Moodle - we use the term "course" to define what is also referred to as a Degree Programme, or collection of subjects.
we use "subject" to refer to a single paper.
In Moodle under admin > site settings, we have the ability to define what our words for "teacher" and "student" are. - could we add the ability to define what our word for "course" is?
-another alternative to this is to use to apply a stylesheet that is applied after the site stylesheet that includes the changes, but how many places is "course" or "courses" listed across all the stylsheets? - my guess is many!
does anyone else in use different terminology than "course" in their organisations?
