Draft your course promise and three outcomes
Define the transformation your course delivers.
Activity: Your course promise and three outcomes
Time to do the work. You're going to define what your course actually delivers, before you build any of it. This becomes the spine everything else hangs on. Don't aim for perfect. Aim for a real first draft you can sharpen later. Done beats perfect, especially now.
What you're making
A one-sentence course promise (the transformation) and three observable outcomes (what learners will be able to do). Use the objective formula from the last lesson.
1. Your course promise
In one sentence: who is this for, and what transformation does it deliver? Try the shape 'This course helps [who] go from [before] to [after].'
2. Three outcomes
List three things learners will be able to DO by the end. Start each with 'By the end, you will be able to...' and use an observable verb.
3. Gut check
Look at your three outcomes. Could you actually see a learner doing each one? If any uses 'understand', 'know', or 'be aware', rewrite it here with an observable verb.
Next step
Keep this draft open. In Module 2 you'll turn this promise and these outcomes into a full course map, with AI helping you pressure-test the structure.
