What about a course on one of the functional programming languages?

None of them are represented in Sololearn but concepts on which they are based are of great importance and influence a lot other languages.

F# would be a good choice! Because F# is strongly supported by Micro$oft. So unlike other functional programming languages. F# got access to widespread tools and frameworks. E.g., Visual Studio, .Net Framework / Mono. Also, some already use F# for game development in the Unity game engine. Xamarin also mentioned that eventually after a C# for the Unreal Engine 4. There is going to be an F#, for it.

Python course is a very good one. Nonetheless I feel a separate course would help students to understand how different it is to code in a Functional Programming. Mixing Imperative and Functional approaches really blurs lines.

Well, there aren't any courses for functional programming languages, per se, but the Python course has a section on functional programming. Could be worth checking out.
