Course Help
Generally speaking, you shouldn't be creating your own Course pages from scratch. Let the Studiomaven admins do that.
Courses are structured through weekly Sessions . Any content on a Course page is only relevant to that course. However, the concepts covered in courses can eventually be generalized and contribute to content on the rest of the Wiki.
Semantic Structure
Each Course page has the following semantic properties.
- Course Number
- The Course Number refers to the name of the course according to the naming and numbering conventions of the institution.

Free-Text Structure
Each Course page should more-or-less adhere to follow the following structure.
- Sessions
- The Sessions should be listed chronologically. The title of each Session should follow this structure: Week Number - Topic . The title of each session should be level two heading . Describe each Session, including information about the importance of the topics in the larger scheme of the Course. Include a link to the Session and Exercise pages associated with each week.
- Resources
- Links to external resources, general reference files stored on the level 2 headings , and any reference material that may prove useful. Structured as a level two heading called "Resources". The list of resources should be structured as a definition list , with the link as the bolded text.
