Course (sail), the principal sail on a mast of a sailing vessel
Course (food), a set of one or more food items served at once during a meal
Course (education), in the United States, a unit of instruction in one subject, lasting one academic term
Course of study, in the Commonwealth of Nations and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a programme of education leading to a degree or diploma
Course of employment, a legal consideration of all circumstances which may occur in the performance of a person's job
Course (medicine), a regime of medical drugs, or the speed of evolution of a disease
Course (music), a pair or more of adjacent strings tuned to unison or an octave and played together to give a single note, in a stringed instrument
Main course, the primary dish in a meal consisting of several courses
Course (architecture), a continuous horizontal layer of similarly-sized building material, in a wall
String course, a continuous narrow horizontal course or moulding which projects slightly from the surface of a wall
In sailing, a course is the lowermost sail on a mast.
This term is used predominantly in the plural to describe the lowest sails on a square rigged vessel, i.e., a ship's courses would be the foresail, mainsail, and, on the rare occasions in which one is shipped, mizzen.Gaff-rigged vessels may use the term (for the lowest sail rigged aft of each mast), but are more likely to refer simply to a mainsail, foresail, etc. A Bermuda- or lateen-rigged yacht, whether sloop, cutter, ketch or yawl, would not usually be described as having a course.
References
↑ "The Mainsail, Foresail, and Mizen, are also called Courses." Lever, Darcy. The Young Sea Officer's Sheet Anchor. 2nd Edition first published 1819. (c) 1998 by Dover Publications, Inc., Mineola, NY 11501: p. 121. N.B. The "mizen" to which Lever refers is a fore-and-aft sail more commonly called "spanker" or "driver" today as, indeed, he did on occasion, q.v., p. 66. The lowest yard on a ship's mizzenmast is the "cross-jack yard" and a squaresail bent thereon is typically referred to as a cross-jack. The true "mizzen yard" evolved into or was replaced by the gaff by the turn of the 19th century, q.v., page 42.
In navigation, an object's course is the direction over the ground along which the object is currently moving.
Course, track, route and heading
The line connecting the object's consecutive positions on the ground is referred to as the ground track. The track the object was intended to follow is called the route. For ships and aircraft, the route is represented by the great circle line that connects the previous waypoint with the next waypoint. The responsibility of a navigator is to make the track coincide as much as possible with the route. The direction of the route is called the route course. "Course" exceptionally, and arguably erroneously, may also refer to the route, such as in a course deviation indicator, in which case it no longer constitutes an angle but rather a line. The direction of the great circle line that runs from the current position to the next waypoint is called the course to steer, or the bearing to that waypoint. The tracking angle is the angle between the course to steer and the course. The heading is the direction to which the "nose" of the object is pointing, its orientation.
Some basic skills to use when course setting for Easy, Moderate and Hard navigation. Very easy course setting not in this video. This is not all information needed for course setting but just some basic guides to help you get started.

Wilderness Navigation Skills- Orientating a Map with a Compass
Two ways of orientating a map with a compass. First set your compass to magnetic north (adjust for local declination), then align the edge of the compass with any north-south line on the map, or the edge of the map. Then rotate the map and compass together until the magnetic needle falls into the orienteering arrow (put Red in the Shed). The second option is to set 0 (North) at the index line and align the edge of the compass with the Magnetic North line of the Declination Diagram, then rotate the whole map and compass until the orienteering arrow falls into the orienteering arrow (put Red in the Shed).
