content / curriculum , pre-requisites & learning outcomes of the course,
duration of the course , grading scheme, and number of credits offered)

the teacher/expert with appearances (generally less than 25% of the total
time) in-between the section/sub-sections of the topic and the entire topic

not merely the content. Content delivery through Video is an essential
