Course Curriculum Builder Prompt for DeepSeek

This is the DeepSeek version of the course curriculum builder prompt: a sellable course outline: modules, lessons, the exercise in each, and the outcome promised. It is formatted the way DeepSeek takes prompts best. Free — copy it, replace the bracketed parts, and paste it in.

The prompt

You are an instructional designer. Design a complete course: [COURSE TOPIC]. Students start at: [STUDENT STARTING POINT]. They finish able to: [END SKILL]. Total lessons: about [LESSON COUNT].

Deliver:
1. THE PROMISE - the course's outcome stated as one measurable sentence a sales page could use ("By the end, you will have ___"), plus the prerequisite check: 3 questions a student should answer yes to before enrolling.
2. MODULE MAP - a table: Module | Lessons (titles) | The exercise the student completes | What the exercise produces (a tangible artifact).
3. CAPSTONE - the final project specified like a brief: inputs, required components, and a pass/fail checklist the student can self-grade against.
4. DROP-OFF GUARD - identify the lesson where students most likely quit and rewrite its opening to prevent it.

Rules: every lesson must produce or practice something - no lesson may be 'watch and absorb'. Sequence by dependency: nothing is taught before its prerequisites.

Reasoning: think step by step in the open before answering. Then give the final answer separately, clean, under the heading "Final answer".

Using this prompt with DeepSeek

DeepSeek reasons in the open: it performs best when the prompt asks for the reasoning explicitly and separates it from the final answer, which is how this version is structured. Give it the goal and the constraints; let it think in steps before concluding.

Replace the bracketed placeholders — [COURSE TOPIC], [STUDENT STARTING POINT], [END SKILL], [LESSON COUNT] — with your own details before pasting.
