Page resource

A page has several advantages:

Opened directly on the course website so there is no need to download a separate file (e.g. Word)
-
Convenient for students to view on a mobile device
-
Changes can be updated directly on the page (rather than changing the files and uploading them again)
-
The text can be linked to the glossary of the course website
