2. Understanding courses, strands, sub-objectives, and learning objectives
A course is a combination of a subject and a grade level (e.g., "Mathematics - Grade 5"). A strand represents a broad area of focus within a course (e.g., "Geometry" within the "Mathematics - Grade 5" course). Each strand can have multiple sub-objectives, which are smaller and more focused topics within the strand. Learning objectives are created under each sub-objective to define specific goals and outcomes for students.
