Project Description
Currently Expertiza only supports creating courses in the English language. Many Expertiza users are from other countries. We aim to allow instructors to create courses in other languages. This will be done by internationalizing static strings in Expertiza to another language (ex: Hindi or Chinese). Instructors will have the ability to change the language for a course in the Edit Course page through a dropdown. We will not be affecting any strings that are dynamically shown.

Allowing instructor to change languages for a course
- We will add a
language

Table. - Then we will add a dropdown of languages to the Edit Course page for an instructor to use.

Adding Multi-Language Support
