Effective course structure starts with clarity. In this lesson, you’ll learn how to break down your core topic into digestible modules and lessons. We begin with content mapping—using mind maps or outlines to sort your expertise into themes. Then, we’ll explore how to arrange those themes in a logical learning sequence. You’ll understand the difference between foundational and advanced concepts and how to layer knowledge so each lesson builds on the previous one. We’ll also discuss how to avoid information overload by focusing only on what’s essential to your learners’ goals. By the end, you’ll have a draft course structure that aligns with your audience’s needs and your teaching outcomes.
