Why does "Introduction to Python" show as incomplete when I've completed it in "Coding Foundations?"

Question

The first six modules of "Coding Foundations" are the entirety of "Introduction to Python" and I've finished all of them in "Coding Foundations", but they are showing as if I haven't started any of them in "Introduction to Python". Do I have to redo all of them through "Introduction to Python" to receive the certificate for it?

Answer 1

Simon Geller those are two separate courses even though you completed the same material. Which also means you should be able to zoom through the "Introduction to Python" as if it is a piece of cake.

Answer 2

Simon Geller ,

Yeah. I don't know why Sololearn does that. Maybe to increase the length of the course list without having to write new material. Which is silly, because whom are they trying to impress? It actually just creates disappointment in the real users.

I find it annoying. More than once, I've started a new course and seen all the same questions, and even my comments, from a previous course.

Answer 3

BroFar If a module is completed in any course, it should automatically be set to completed in every other course it's in. This seems like an oversight to me.

Answer 4

Simon Geller an oversight maybe but the development team may see it as a way to encourage someone whom might be having issues in one area or another to explore the smaller courses to get a better grasp. However, if you feel comfortable in what you learned in the development / "Coding Foundations" course then why not explore other courses.

Other users may see exploring "Introduction to Python" course first and feel more comfortable going into "Coding Foundations" course where they have explored a bit of say HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python before getting to say SQL ...

The idea is to start putting languages together from the basics and to re-enforce their knowledge.

Answer 5

“Coding foundations” and “Introduction to Python” are two different courses, one is designed to introduce you to coding, the other introduced you to python, but are similar, but not the same.
