What Matlab Course Designer does

Matlab Course Designer interviews an instructor and generates a complete MATLAB and Simulink course in IMS Common Cartridge format. Use it when creating a MATLAB or Simulink curriculum with Course Designer-ready modules, activities, and validated exercise files.

Matlab Course Designer is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Matlab Course Designer comes from a repository tagged agent-skill, agent-skills, agentic-ai, agents and claude.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

MATLAB Course Designer

Create a complete MATLAB and Simulink enabled course package through an instructor interview. The final deliverable is an IMS Common Cartridge .imscc file plus reviewable source artifacts for the instructor.

The generated course must conform to the MATLAB Course Designer organization model: one course contains one or more ordered modules, and each module contains one or more ordered learning activities. Preserve this hierarchy in all intermediate artifacts so future API work can create MATLAB Course Designer course instances directly. Use the public MATLAB Course Designer documentation as the source for this hierarchy: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab-and-simulink-online-courses/matlab-course-designer.html.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
