@pythonhacker I suggest you to take a relook at the the subtitle and description of the course.

Subtitle is a catchy line to grab the attention of the student and the course description is a bit more detail, usually goes into a para or two.

You can look at the following courses to get an idea. The course description is way below in the page, after the outline.
