Importing and exporting entries
The Import entries and Export entries links enable the teacher to exchange glossaries between courses and even Moodle installations:
You might want to begin a course with a small glossary and let students add to it as they discover new concepts. If you do this, export the beginning glossary so that it is available for the next course. The next time you teach a course, you can choose to export everything from the completed course (except the student information and the glossary). In the new copy, just create a new and blank glossary and import the beginning glossary.
Also, note that the editing window enables you to include hyperlinks in the definition (via the icon). This can be used to link to freely available information on the web, such as http://www.wikipedia.org/.
A glossary is effective for learning...
