When to use it

When course notes need to become a sample that prospective customers can review.

What you’ll get

A Markdown course notebook, a shareable HTML sample, and a reusable review checklist.

Work through the steps

Before you start

A course idea, audience, business tasks, and initial notes. Use an AI tool that can create and revise Markdown and HTML files. Parallel agents are optional.

Example course layout

Step 01

Create the first sample

Replace the starting-context placeholders with your notes. Continue in the same conversation when giving feedback.

Help me create a sample course layout for prospective Hiatt Co customers. Hiatt Co teaches small-business owners and teams how to use AI in their work.

The example should help a customer understand who the course serves, what participants will practice, what they will leave with, and how we could adapt it to their team.

Create a customer-facing example, not a complete curriculum or a confirmed offer.

Starting context:

- Course idea: [topic or working title]
- Audience and current skills: [who will attend]
- Business tasks they want to improve: [tasks]
- Format and available time: [format, duration, or undecided]
- Tools participants can use: [tools or undecided]
- My initial braindump: [paste notes or dictated text]

1. Build a shared course notebook

Create a small Markdown wiki for this course. Include:

- Brief: audience, business need, scope, and constraints.
- Learning outcomes: what participants should be able to do.
- Course outline: sections, sequence, and proposed timing.
- Decisions: confirmed choices, assumptions, and open questions.
- Feedback: my comments and how they affect the course.

Treat my notes as source material. Separate confirmed decisions from suggestions and unresolved ideas. Do not turn tentative remarks into commitments. Ask only questions whose answers would materially change the course; otherwise proceed with labeled assumptions.

2. Develop the sections

Break the course into sections that can be drafted independently.

For each section, define:

- A clear title and practical purpose.
- An observable learning outcome.
- A short explanation or demonstration.
- A hands-on exercise using fictional or anonymized business material.
- A concrete output participants will create.
- A review check that shows whether the exercise worked.
- Proposed timing and prerequisites.

If parallel agents are available, assign each a separate section file and have them read the shared brief first. Keep shared decisions under one coordinator. Reconcile terminology, difficulty, dependencies, and timing before combining their work.

3. Turn the outline into a customer example

Create a self-contained HTML page I can open locally and share with a prospective customer.

Show:

- Course title and a plain-language description.
- Intended audience and prerequisites.
- What participants will practice and leave with.
- An agenda with expandable section details.
- One representative exercise with an example prompt and expected output.
- What the customer would need to provide.
- Options for adapting the course to different teams.

Make it readable on phones, printable, and usable with a keyboard. Keep assets local and avoid external dependencies.

Label it “Sample course outline — adapted after a planning conversation.” Clearly mark proposed durations and tool requirements. Do not invent prices, testimonials, credentials, guaranteed results, or approved commitments.

Keep internal planning notes out of the customer page.

4. Integrate my feedback

After each draft, give me the HTML page and a brief report of changes and unresolved decisions.

I will respond with dictated braindumps. Integrate them into the notebook, flag contradictions, and update affected sections. Preserve earlier decisions unless I change them. Keep a short decision history.

5. Run a course review

Create a reusable review checklist or skill for the whole course. Run it before presenting the first draft and after substantial revisions.

If agents are available, use independent reviewers for learning design, business relevance, timing, accuracy, accessibility, and copy. Look for:

- Vague or untestable outcomes.
- Missing prerequisites or gaps in the sequence.
- Exercises that do not support the stated outcomes.
- Too much material for the proposed time.
- Unsupported claims or unconfirmed tool capabilities.
- Repetition, filler, jargon, and sales language.
- Differences between the course plan and customer page.

Fix supported findings and rerun affected checks. Bring unresolved decisions to me. Do not schedule unattended work unless I ask.

Start by organizing my initial braindump and producing the first sample layout.

Step 02 · Review before use

  • Confirm the audience, outcomes, exercises, outputs, and prerequisites agree across the notebook and customer page.
  • Check the agenda fits the proposed time and clearly labels assumptions, tool requirements, and unresolved choices.
  • Open the HTML on desktop and phone, use the agenda with a keyboard, and check print preview.
  • Keep internal notes out of the customer page and confirm the sample label appears without unsupported claims or commitments.

If you get stuck: If the tool cannot create files, request each Markdown file and the self-contained HTML as separate code blocks to save locally. Without parallel agents, draft and review the sections in sequence.
