Zen 101: ewk vs Udemy

Somebody suggested this Udemy idea and I didn't want to do it because it's just a ton of talking, video editing, filling out forms, and I type so much faster.

But the argument is pretty ironclad, especially in terms of getting r/Zen content to people who aren't going to come to reddit and click-and-scroll for it.

So here is the outline of my introduction to this Udemy class on Zen:

It's supposed to be for people who know nothing, but who are comfortable reading on the subject and conquered high school.

Pros: I know the material very well. I like talking. People who meet me say I should talk in front of a class. I think I can use microphone and laptop to record everything. I've tested a little and it seems feasible with a phone. I will do the recording on this Linux laptop with my podcast mic if I can make some software work. I am able to edit video to add slides with Openshot, I've tested that.

Cons: I have never designed a class. I've provided professional training on a skill and briefings on a topic, but never designed a class from the ground up. Another con, it won't be posted to /r/zen when I'm done. Plus if you hang out here, you've heard this stuff a million times.

Hopefully somebody will suggest things to think about in designing classes. Yes, formatting and spelling haven't been checked... this is early days.
