Hi Ronald,

The Glossary Module which is a standard module in Moodle will do exactly what you want.

Cheers,

Hi GJ,

If you need the same thing as Mel has written but step-by-step and with screenshots, this might help you: Install Moodle 1.9 on Windows.pdf

It refers to a Xampp server and Moodle 1.9 but the procedure is very similar.

Cheers,

Glenys

Hi Jason,

I agree totally with what Richard and E. L. have written.

• "Security Protection (information will not go outside the class)" Nothing you put on the Internet is 100% secure. I don't know of any studies that show that Moodle is either better or worse than commercial equivalents in this domain.
• If you want "No hassle of installation or maintenace" you could consider working with a Moodle Partner - but it has a cost.
• "Improved productivity for the professors/faculty and students" How would you measure that?
• "Cool web 2.0 user interface" there are a number of free or commercial Moodle "themes" or you can pay a web designer to produce one just for you.

Cheers,

Glenys

Of course, Joseph, you have oodles of my admiration...  but this forum set up doesn't. If one is not careful, one doesn't see all the previous posts - just the ones immediately before one's own post. I should have remembered last night to click on "Show parent" but I didn't.

My "... yet" was because I was expecting you in particular to contribute because I know you feel stongly on the subject.

You reply to me is, of course, an example of how I believe "teachers" can create a culture of appropriate behaviour in a learning community by the tone of their response to erring "students" like me.

Hi Joseph,

Yes, I did and I'm delighted with Itamar's answer and with yours too.

Cheers,
