This is ugly right now, but then again this is just a test. (numbers are bogus)


Other ideas:
*Does 'nigeria-math-1', 'nigeria-math-2', etc, have any advantage over the more explicit page-naming convention 'nigeria_math_k-1'?
* Top-level pages for Literacy, Writing, Math, Science, Arts, Games, Geography, &c. (see below), which would be the primary views... Invoked with <nowiki>{{Matrix | country=nigeria}}</nowiki>
*With this scheme the number of pages to maintain may be a bit oppressive and rather redundant across various countries
* By language: language=English rather than country= (perhaps with a page for Nigeria including the english matrix and added country-specific notes)

Invoked with <nowiki>{{Matrix | country=nigeria}}</nowiki>

This is an example of a matrix of content that maps readily onto traditional divisions of school textbooks, by subject and grade. Tested out briefly; not currently in use. A better matrix view, for various axes, might be an interesting way to find or review material.

Other ideas:

  • Top-level pages for Literacy, Writing, Math, Science, Arts, Games, Geography, &c. (see below), which would be the primary views... Invoked with {{Matrix | country=nigeria}}
  • By language: language=English rather than country= (perhaps with a page for Nigeria including the english matrix and added country-specific notes)

Structure:

  • Template:Matrix (contains the list of subject areas)
    • Template:Matrixrow
      • Template:Statusformat (color of numbers)

NB: country should be changed to language
