What makes a course, a course?  In this episode, we talk about the 5 differences between just content and a really good course:

• Structure and order
• Guided implementation
• Support
• Assessment
• Feedback

Action Step:

Have a think about the 5 differences and apply one of them to your course.  Once you've done that with one, have a think about if and how the others can be applied to your course.

• Celebrate each baby step
• Schedule working time
