Plan a whole course in Dirassa Studio and send it to Dirassa+

Have a course in mind but no starting point? The “Course planning” module writes its whole outline: sections, and in each one lessons with their title, type and estimated length, plus assessments and a free preview lesson if you want them. You edit it by hand, refine it for free, then publish it as a new draft course on Dirassa Plus, every lesson “coming soon” until you fill it.

• A few minutes for the first outline, then as many edits as you like
• 4 steps
• 2026-10-05

Who can do it: Requires a computer linked to your school in Dirassa Studio, and a balance of at least one coin.

   Step 1 of 4

   Describe your course

   In the sidebar, under “Teach”, open “Course planning”. The “Let's build your course outline” screen is four lines long: the “Course title” (at least two characters for the button to work), the “Subject and level”, and the “Course size”: sections × lessons per section, read from your courses (“Average of your 3 courses”) if you have two with lessons, otherwise “Starting values” of 5 sections × 6 lessons; “Change” opens two steppers, 2 to 14 sections and 2 to 13 lessons, then “Done”. Next, “What you usually add”: “An assessment after each section”, “A free preview lesson” and “A live question session”; tap one to turn it on or off. Last, the one question none of your courses can answer for you: “What will the student be able to do after the course that they could not before?”

   TipOne line is enough, but don’t leave it empty: “Your answer here is what turns a list of titles into a progression with a direction. One line is enough; leaving it empty produces an index of the subject, not a course.” Write an action you can see, such as “shoot a product for a real shop and deliver it edited from their phone”, not “discover photography”.

   Heads-upIf you see “This device is not linked to your account, so we cannot read your courses or publish to them.”, press “Link” and link the device first: without it nothing is read from your courses, and neither building nor publishing works.

   Build the outline

   Under the question: “Build the outline” and, beneath it, its price: a single coin, with every refinement after it free that day. The whole outline is a single request for one coin, however many sections and lessons it has. The button turns “Building…” with “Reading your idea and drawing the progression…”, then the studio opens in three columns. In the middle, the sections: each with its number, its title and a line like “6 lessons · 140 min”, then its lessons, each with its type (“Lesson”, “Assessment” or “Live session”), its title and its estimated length in minutes, and “Free” on the preview lesson. On one side the “Refinement” column, on the other “What the student walks away with” and “As I understood it”: two lines restating what the writer understood from your request. Below them, the counters: “Sections”, “Lessons”, “Assessments”, “Free preview” and “Estimated length”.

   TipRead “As I understood it” before any edit: if the writer misunderstood your course, correct it now with a note under “Refinement”, before you arrange dozens of lessons on a misunderstanding.

   Heads-upIf building fails you see “The service did not answer, and nothing was charged.” and you are back on the form as you left it. “Your balance is not enough.” charges nothing: top up, then press the button again.

   Step 3 of 4

   Edit and refine the outline

   Everything is edited in place. Click a section or lesson title and type, then Enter (Escape undoes). Click a lesson’s type to cycle it: “Lesson”, then “Assessment”, then “Live session”. Hovering a lesson row shows “Free” (or “Make it paid”) and the delete button, and the length is a number from 5 to 180 minutes. Drag a lesson or a section by its handle to reorder it, “Add a lesson” sits under each section, and “New section — or describe it and we build its lessons” at the bottom. For a section whose lessons you don’t like: “Section idea” opens a line to write what you want, and “Redo” rebuilds its lessons alone and keeps its title. In the “Refinement” column, write a note (“it is saved and applied to everything after it.”), then “Regenerate · free” to rebuild the whole outline in its light. Every edit is saved on your computer at once.

   Tip“Redo” and “Regenerate · free” are free within a daily limit shown under the regenerate button (“N of N generations today”). When “You have reached today's limit” appears, edit by hand today and regenerate tomorrow.

   Heads-up“Regenerate · free” rebuilds the whole outline and replaces the current sections and lessons, including what you edited by hand. So write your notes and regenerate first, then fix titles by hand at the end.

   Step 4 of 4

   Publish it to Dirassa Plus

   Press “Publish to Dirassa+” at the top of the studio. The “Publish “…”” sheet opens: “A course will be created as a new draft on Dirassa+ — no existing course is touched, and your students see nothing.” With what will be created, in numbers: “Sections”, “Lessons”, “of which assessments” and “Free preview”, and “All of them marked “coming soon” until you open them one by one.” If the outline is missing something, it is listed under “Before you publish”: a course with no title, a section with no lessons, lessons with no title. Press “Publish”: “Publishing…”, then “Published to Dirassa+”: “The course was created as a draft with 5 sections and 30 lessons, all “coming soon”. Open it in Dirassa+ to fill it in and publish.” Publishing costs nothing.

   TipOn the web, open the course from “Courses”, then the “Curriculum” tab: fill each lesson, turn its “Coming soon” off and publish it. While it is “Coming soon”, “Students see the title only — nothing opens and it doesn't count toward progress.”

   Heads-upEach publish creates a new course and doesn’t update one you published before: edit the outline and publish it a second time and you have two courses. After the first publish, keep editing on the web in “Curriculum”.
