Curriculum and content

Structuring sections and lessons so students actually finish your course.

01Sections and lessons

A course is sections; a section is lessons. Think of sections as chapters with their own small arc, and lessons as single ideas of roughly five to fifteen minutes. Drag to reorder both. Short, well-named lessons beat long videos — completion rates say so on every platform, and completion drives reviews.

02Names that guide

Lesson titles appear in the curriculum, in search results, and in progress readouts. “Install the tools and verify the setup” tells a student exactly where they are; “Part 3” tells them nothing. Name every lesson as the outcome of watching it.

03Descriptions and resources

Each lesson takes a description — use it for the context that does not belong on camera: links, commands, file lists, common errors. Keep the essentials in the video itself; descriptions are reference, not the lesson.

04Free previews

Mark one or two of your strongest lessons as preview. Previews are your sales page in motion — students judge the course by them, so choose lessons that show your teaching at its clearest, ideally early ones that also orient the whole course.

05The first and last lesson

Open with a lesson that shows the finished result and the path to it — students decide in minutes whether to stay. Close with a lesson that tells them what to build next and points to your other courses. Endings are where your next sale happens.
