Probably the @course object is available in your partial in a variable
named course_detail

If that doesn't work, try your question in the Rails Forum
http://www.ruby-forum.com/forum/3 -- the ruby-talk list is for general
Ruby discussion. The Rails forum is all Rails all the time. You'll get
a much more authoritative response there.
