How to organise Categories?

Other Courses Ask

If I may offer a suggestion… Don’t categorize them by “Lectures”, but by ‘Sections’.

At least in my mind, that’s the next feasible category after course. Then, let the threads/posts themselves address individual lessons as students need them.

Forum:-----------------Course
Category:-------------Section
Thread:----------------Individual Lecture related question

(Example:)

Unreal Engine Course
-----Section 1: Introduction
-----Section 2: Bull Cow Game
-----Section 3: Building Escape
-----Section 4: Battle Tank

Students could put general questions and comments and shenanigans in the default UE forum, and could place their lecture related questions under the appropriate section sub-category. I think this would help give the organization you want, without clustering an ungainly amount of sub-categories. It would let you address semi-related questions in one location without having to view literally dozens of sub-categories for a single course. And it would let students frequent a single sub-category based on where they need help or would like to offer help.

Thank you so much, I actually woke with a similar thought. I’ll stop thing one to one, and think how to best organise forums around the lectures.

#23

OK, take a look at the Unreal Category, how’s that for simple organisation by section then freeform threads within?

#24

Absolutely! That’s a very simple and efficient way to organize.
