From outcomes to a released course

Course Design settles the outcomes, assessment, and topics through six ordered reviews. Lead Designer then plans, designs, and produces every lesson from your sources. The course owner signs, the Dean releases — every step behind a human gate.

Engineered, not converted

Digitising a course copies existing material onto a screen. Engineering a course rebuilds it by backward design: outcomes are refined into measurable objectives, assessment is designed to prove them, integrity is secured, and only then is content produced.

Crucially, the human stays in charge. Every stage has a clear owner and a review gate — Maestro accelerates the work without taking authorship, judgment, or accountability away from faculty.

Course Design: six ordered reviews

Each review is approved by faculty before the next one opens.

1 · Course Intake

Your syllabus, outcomes, and sources, read into a structured scope.

2 · Learning Outcome Review

Outcomes refined into measurable, diagnosable targets.

3 · Assessment Design

Milestones designed back from the outcomes they must prove.

4 · Rubric and Weighting

Criteria and percentage weights, fixed before any work is marked.

5 · Academic Integrity

The integrity model settled at design time.

6 · Topic Architecture

Outcomes mapped into subtopics, with your references aligned.

Lead Designer: plan, design, produce

One engine turns the approved design into finished lessons — and shows its progress live as it works.

  • Plan. Your sources are divided across subtopics and lessons, and a lesson calendar is set. Where your sources are thin, “Fill this gap” drafts the missing material for review.
  • Design. Each lesson is shaped to one Lesson Page Standard: a real case to open, parts to watch or read, Try it activities, Pauses, a check, and a close.
  • Produce. Narrated video with a read-instead option, the check and its variants, and the recovery pieces every lesson needs: a mix-up message, a second way in, a worked example, and a look back.

Signed, then released

  • Milestones first. A course cannot be signed until its milestones exist and are approved.
  • The owner signs. The course owner signs the final report, which freezes that version.
  • The Dean releases. Only a released version reaches learners, and it never changes underneath them. Rollback goes only to an earlier release.

No incomplete lesson can be released

Publishing refuses any lesson whose check or recovery pieces are missing, so a learner never meets a broken page.
