6. Add a Modules section by typing /table and selecting Table view to create a database for your course modules.
7. Add module details to the table, including Module Name, Status, Due Date, and Resources.
8. Fill in your module rows with specific course information.
9. Review your completed course page, now organized with an overview, lessons, and modules you can update as the course grows.
