 * you just need to use the identifier 'wordforstudent'
 * <code>
 * $mystring = '<strong>'. get_string('wordforstudent') .'</strong>';

 * around line 75:
 * <code>
 * $string['typecourse'] = 'Course event';
 * </code>
 * If you want to display the string "Course event" in any language

 * (because it is in the file calendar.php):
 * <code>
 * $mystring = '<h1>'. get_string('typecourse', 'calendar') .'</h1>';
 * </code>
 *

 * the returned string will be [[ $identifier ]]
