How do I use Claude with the Chrome extension in Coursebox?
Coursebox works alongside Claude, Anthropic's AI assistant, through Claude's Chrome extension. Once the extension is installed and enabled, Claude can see and interact with the Coursebox tab in your browser, helping you plan, draft, and refine an online course without switching between apps.
What does the Claude Chrome extension do inside Coursebox?
The extension lets Claude read the current page and take actions in the browser on your behalf. Inside Coursebox, this means Claude can act as a thinking partner while you build a course, turning a rough idea into clear instructions that Coursebox then uses to generate lessons, quizzes, and activities.
How do I set up Claude with Coursebox?
Install the Claude Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store and sign in with your Anthropic account.
Open Coursebox in the same browser tab or window where the extension is active.
Click the Claude icon in your browser toolbar to open the assistant panel alongside Coursebox.
How do I write good prompts for Claude?
The more context you give Claude, the better it can help you plan your course. A few tips:
Describe your audience clearly, including their role and prior experience.
State the goal of the course, such as onboarding, compliance, or a specific skill.
Ask Claude to refine one section at a time rather than rewriting the whole course, so you can review changes as you go.
How does Claude help build the course inside Coursebox?
Once you and Claude agree on a structure, Claude can carry those instructions into Coursebox's course generator. Coursebox then creates the lessons, activities, and assessments, which you can review, edit, and enrich with your own media inside the Course Editor. Claude can keep assisting at this stage, suggesting improvements or adjusting sections based on your feedback.
Can Claude publish a course for me?
Yes. Because the extension can take actions in the browser, Claude can click through Coursebox's publishing steps if you ask it to. We recommend reviewing the finished course yourself first, to make sure it fits your learners and meets your organisation's standards.
