      From now on, both topics and weeks format will have a way to render single sections regardless of the "one section per page" setting.

      It means:

      1. A new page, course/section.php, will be created. It will have, at least, a sectionid param, to show only this section, not the full course. It is essential to note the section will be identified by the ID, not the section number. We are trying to eliminate the use of section numbers as section identification.
      2. With edit mode OFF, the section name will always be a link to the section page (also in the course index). Clicking the chevrons will be the only way to expand and collapse sections.
      3. With edit mode ON, the section name in the course content will be a inplace editable as before, but the section action menu will have the option to go to the section page. The course index will keep the link as point 2.
      4. The section page won't display the general section anymore

      Here are some screenshots of the prototype:

      A) Course page with edit mode OFF

       

      B) The section dropdown with section link in edit mode
