How to become an author?
When developing courses, content goes through certain stages: work with the author and methodologists, editors, and designers. Below we have collected the main recommendations and approaches that we use for writing text content.
How Our Recommendations Can Help:
- Structuring your knowledge
- Identifying blocks of meaning in a text
- Determining the level of complexity of the material depending on the target audience
- Explaining complicated things in simple language
- Formatting, editing, and proofreading text
