The Chicago Manual of Style, 18th ed. does not provide instructions on how to cite online course material. The proper way to cite content like this can vary by department, course, or instructor, so always be sure to check with your professor about how they would like you to cite resources from your course.
Course materials should generally not be used as a source for assignments. Try and find another source that makes a similar point to your course materials instead of using it as a source.
