I'm a final-semester computer science major in the USA. I'd love your feedback and advice on this 1-credit class that I'm teaching on React JS.

I'm teaching and managing this course all by myself. I'm doing it primarily for the resume boost (to get a job and failing that get into a decent cs master's program). Secondarily for the intrinsic benefits of teaching.
It meets once a week for 50 minutes until December and it's just 1 credit so it can't be too intensive either.
After college I would like to get a SWE job, so I'm trying to show companies that I know React really well (job applications), and I'm trying to make myself employable and in-demand.
If I can't get a good enough job, I'm planning on going for master's. Then this course should show that I can teach technical material (master's degree applications).
I'm also doing this course to force myself to properly learn React well enough to teach it.
- Any advice on the syllabus, especially the content and how I can improve it to reflect current industry practices?
- Advice on specific things I should do before, during, and after the semester to make this experience worthwhile from a resume and job, masters' application point of view?
I would appreciate any and all advice you could give me. Thank you.
