Ok I am an IT student studying for diploma in IT. This is our last stage and we are going to do a project. It is a software project in which we are going to use the php to make up a program or software and we are going to do it as they would do in real world producing different documents for the project. My question is how do you make a glossary for an entire project. I have been assigned to make up a glossary for the project and this is in the first stage of the development stage I don't know how to start?
Help with the project.

Didn't they teach you that in the class?
1: Look it up in the text book.
2: Ask classmates.
3: Ask the teacher.
WE'RE TRYING TO FINISH IT, IF WE COULD ONLY GET THIS SPACE THEN IT WOULD REALLY MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR US. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Since a glossary is a list of terms and their definitions, why not start by making a list of terms and their definitions

A glossary is simply a definition of the terms used during the write-up of the project. Basically the glossary should contain an alphabetic listing of non-standard terms or terms which the intended reader would not be expected to know.
You would not create a glossary for the programming parts of the project - there you should have user-guide/technical manuals in which a glossary might appear.

How hard can it be to make a glossary? It's just a set of words with definitions attached to it. Find a few IT terminologies and give each of them a definition. Go ask your teacher, peers and maybe flick out that good ol' text book and bloody get some words, that might just, JUST be the best option.
