name column returned

I have the following sql:

SELECT courseModuleCodeFROM coursesWHERE courseCodelike'%' + @.prefixText +'%'
UNION

SELECTcourseNameFROM coursesWHEREcourseNamelike'%' + @.prefixText +'%'

UNION

SELECTTeacherNameFROM coursesWHERETeacherNamelike'%' + @.prefixText +'%'
 
it returns one column, i want to name tha column as "words"
how do i do it?
thanks 

SELECT courseModuleCode as 'words' ... and do the rest of the statement the same.

PS:

How many records will your statement return if the following records are in your database:

Here's a real course from a local university.

CourseModuleCodeCourseName

PHYS 212 Heat

TeacherName

Heat

Would the number of records change if you used a UNION ALL instead of a UNION? Why?
