 ## Schedule
 
-The curriculum was piloted in six half-days, 
-with an extended break for lesson trial runs between half-days 4 & 5.
+The curriculum is intended to be delivered in 2 parts over six half-days. 
+Part 1 takes 4 half-days and teaches the theory of lesson design as well as implementing lessons using The Carpentries Workbench. 
+At the end of part 1, learners are expected to have an outline for a whole lesson, and a detailed plan for some of its individual sections/episodes.
+Part 2 takes 2 half-days and teaches collaborating effectively on open lesson development projects.
+There is an extended break for lesson trial runs between parts 1 & 2, where learners are expected to conduct mini pilots of their lessons with the 
+intended target audiences.
 
-Below is a suggested six half-day schedule that can be used as a guideline to plan the content 
-for each teaching session.

 From experience, half-days 5 & 6 can probably be delivered in less than the scheduled amount of time
 and could potentially be folded into 1 half-day of teaching, for learner teams that are more experienced 
 in working with GitHub.
