Course syllabus skeleton

A course syllabus skeleton with outcomes, module breakdown, assessment plan, and an explicit "what this won't cover" — saves the inevitable scope-creep conversation.

Build a course syllabus skeleton I can flesh out.

Course title: {{title}}
Audience: {{audience}}
Format: {{format}} (live cohort / self-paced / hybrid)
Duration: {{duration}}
What success looks like for a student at the end: {{end_state}}
Prerequisites: {{prerequisites}}
Tools / platforms used: {{tools}}

Return the syllabus with:
1. COURSE OVERVIEW (60 words) — who it's for, what they'll do, why it's different.
2. LEARNING OUTCOMES — 4–6 outcome statements ("By the end you'll be able to ..."), each verifiable.
3. MODULE BREAKDOWN — 4–8 modules, each with: title, 1-line summary, 3 sub-topics, 1 deliverable / artefact, estimated time.
4. ASSESSMENT — what gets assessed and how (don't over-engineer; favour 1 capstone or rubric over weekly quizzes).
5. RESOURCES — 3 must-reads / must-watches (real titles or "find a good intro to X").
6. WHAT THIS COURSE WON'T COVER — 2 things, so expectations are clear.

AU English. No "transformative journey". No "passion-led".
