Click it to access the author's studio, which offers advanced parameters and functionality. Then, provide all the requested information to publish your course.

Step 2: If you've already figured out the topic and category of your course, we have a suggestion for you. Consider creating a small script that divides the course into different topics or lessons. As for planning the lessons, everyone has their approach based on the subject, category, and personal experience. Remember that this is microlearning, which means breaking down information into smaller parts and repeating it gradually to help you absorb and understand it better.

Quality content in the card attracts students' interest. You can always go back and edit the card during or at the end of the course creation process.

Step 6: You can lay out the lessons after filling in the course information. In the card layout and lesson creation studio, you will find various tools, such as a bar with card views, elements used in the card, and a menu bar for moving, deleting, or duplicating cards. Additionally, you have a drop-down menu where you can edit the lesson's title and its position in the course.
