The method
Use this prompt within ChatGPT. Begin by providing a broad topic for your online course (e.g., 'Digital Marketing'). Adjust the level of detail for each module/lesson as needed. Iterate on the outline, asking for revisions and more granular breakdowns.
The prompts
Prompt 1
I'm creating an online course using MemberPress. The overall topic is 'Investing for Beginners'. Generate a course outline with 5 modules. Each module should contain 3-5 lessons. Focus on practical applications and examples. Specify the learning objectives for each lesson. Include considerations for how this module/lesson could be protected using MemberPress (e.g., specific membership levels required).
Prompt 2
Outline a MemberPress course called 'WordPress for Small Business Owners'. I envision 4 distinct modules covering installation, theme customization, plugin usage, and basic SEO. For the theme customization module, break down the lessons into working with Elementor, Gutenberg, and other page builders. Consider free vs. premium plugin options and how to restrict advanced lessons to a specific MemberPress membership level. Describe each module's target audience (e.g., absolute beginners, intermediate users).
