Course Content Generation

2. Slide Composition Rules

• Header Hierarchy:
  • ## Title Slide
  • ## The Problem: [Context]
  • ## The Concept: [Context]
  • ## Business Impact: [Context]
  • ## The Challenge: [Context]
  • ## Strategy: [Context]
  • ## Conclusion: [Context]
• Bullet Point Constraint: Use 2-4 bullet points per slide.
• Discussion Questions: Discussion prompts MUST be on their own dedicated slide. Do not append them as a final bullet on a content slide. Create a new slide header (e.g., ## Discussion: [Topic]) and place the scenario-based question as the only bullet point.
• Specificity Requirement: Discussion prompts must be tightly anchored to the exact slide content, by specifying a brief scenario that requires a judgement. Avoid generic prompts that could fit any topic.
• Concluding Slide Requirement: EVERY slide deck MUST end with a final ## Conclusion: [Topic] slide that wraps up the session, summarizes the core takeaways, and provides closure for the module.
• Punctuation & Style:
  • CRITICAL: Use NO m-dashes (—) or n-dashes (–). Use a colon (:), a comma (,), or a standard hyphen (-) instead.

3. Logic for Background Selection

The background description should match the topic's "mood". It should be lowkey, gentle, and academic.

Quality Criteria

• No M-dash/N-dash: Zero occurrences in the output.
• The deck must be enough for a 3-hour academic session, divided into clear modules.
• Discussion Discipline: Discussion prompts should be sparse, deliberate, and materially better than having no prompt at all.
• Mandatory Conclusion: The final slide must always be a summarization/conclusion slide.
• Classroom-First Tone: The content should feel like an engaging university lecture, not a corporate board meeting. Frame the content from an academic lens—focusing on critical thinking, systems design, ethical implications, and balanced evaluation. Avoid aggressive corporate jargon, "cutthroat" profit-maximization rhetoric, and hype-driven buzzwords. Use a curious, objective, and supportive pedagogical voice.

• "Create a 16-slide content structure for Introduction to Marketing."
