Open a draft course in the Classroom authoring workspace.

## Create the lesson

1. Choose **New page**.
2. Give the lesson a task-oriented title.
3. Use the editor to add the outcome, explanation, worked example, learner action, and completion cue.
4. Use headings in order, descriptive links, meaningful image alternatives, and captions or transcripts.
5. Save and keep the item in draft while reviewing it.
6. Reorder the lesson only after checking prerequisites and references from other lessons.

## Add supporting resources

1. Choose **Add Resource** to attach a supported file or link.
2. Give the resource a recognizable label and explain when to use it.
3. Confirm the file is the approved revision and does not expose authoring notes or tracked changes.

## Verify the learner view

Preview as a member and test the lesson on mobile and desktop. Verify downloads, external links, video playback, captions, keyboard access, completion, progress, and the next lesson. A resource must not contain secrets, private member data, inaccessible scans, or media without publication rights.

If the member sees an older version, confirm you saved the intended lesson, published the correct course revision, and did not edit a different locale or draft.
