What will be the best way to make such a table with Drupal?

Hi, I have a question about how to make such a table or present a matrix of nodes with Drupal.

I am developing an online course website with Drupal. My purpose is to use the website to provide whatever students need to get from me but not to use it to receive things submitted from students. So I am not in worry about giving feedback, grading, report, etc. For now most course materials have been entered into the site. I use field to indicate each node's lesson ID and taxonomy to indicate the type of files. I have attached an image to this post to show you my current front page setup for registered students. As you can see (from the picture) course materials are listed at the left sidebar, grouped by lesson ID, and sorted by the types of materials. In the center is a table indicating lessons, schedule, and corresponding materials students should get from me. Now, the table is a single page node. All the ys in the table indicates that a "node" is available and can be found at the left side bar. For now those ys are not hyperlinked and have no relation to the nodes.

I was wondering if there is any way to make a matrix of nodes (or nodes' titles with links to the nodes) in a way that looks like the table, or like a monthly calendar, weeks and days are cross-tabulated with clickable events in cells. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your response in advance.
