The Table of Contents (TOC) is a tree structure that is a relational hierarchy with three nodes:
Title Node: The highest node in the TOC pane that represents the entire compilation. Typically, this is the name of the Textbook, Course, Collection or Lesson Plan.
Sibling Node: Represent nodes that are at the same hierarchy within the compilation. Typically, these are the topic headings within a Textbook, Course, Collection or Lesson Plan.
Child Node: Represent nodes that have at least one node higher in the hierarchy of the compilation. The node of at the higher level is the parent of the child. Typically, the child nodes are sub-headings in a topic.
However, when you create the first node after adding the title node, you need to add a child node and not a sibling node. For example, for the English textbook of class V, the title of the book becomes the title node. Each unit heading within the book is the child node. Subsequent chapters becomes sibling nodes. Let us consider the example of a class V English textbook.
Note: When a book/collection/course is updated, the table of contents tree is updated automatically.
Heading Type | Corresponding Node | Node Name |
---|---|---|
Textbook Name | Title Node | Great Fun With Grammar |
1st Chapter Name | Child Node | Nouns |
Activity in Chapter 1 | Child Node | Fun Task |
2nd Chapter Name | Sibling Node | More Nouns |
Activity in Chapter 2 | Child Node | My Fun Corner |
