You might want to categorise your glossary entries.

To add a new category to your glossary, switch editing on, go to your course’s homepage and click on your glossary’s title.

This will take you to the glossary, which currently has no entries. Click on the Browse by alphabet drop-down list and click on Browse by category.

Click on the Edit categories button and then click on the Add category button to open the Add category page.

Type the name of the category in the Name field.

If site-wide glossary automatic linking has been enabled by an administrator and Automatically link this category is ticked, the category name will be automatically linked wherever it appears in the course. When a learner clicks on a category name link they will be taken to the ‘Browse by category’ page of the glossary.

Click on the Save changes button and then the Back button to return to the glossary.

To categorise individual glossary entries, if you edit the entry, just below the Definition field in the Categories drop-down list, which will now include the category you have just added.

Click on the relevant category for that glossary entry and click on the Save changes button.

Now if you browse by category, you will find the glossary entry that you have just categorised listed under that category.
