What's the difference between a Course and a Section?
Within CodeHS, a Course is a sequence of curriculum that your students will work through. Courses are made up of Assignments.
Each Course can have multiple Sections.
Within CodeHS, a Section is a group of students working on a Course.
An Assignment is any module, lesson or activity that students (within their Sections) work on as part of their Course.
In other words, a Section is a group of students (like a class), while the Course and Assignments are the curriculum content that they are working on.
