What would you like to see in Sololearn to make your learning experience better in 2017?

Question

Programming is no doubt the skill that every one should have to make our life easier. The good example is the existence of app by Sololearn that helps most of us to learn together. In the coming year, I would like to see more features are available for Sololearners to interact with each other in addition to the Q&A Discussions. What do you have in mind? Let's share and be heard by Sololearn dev teams! ☺

Answer 1

Maybe projects like codeacademy, choose a project and work from 0 to completion.
Also:
1) The ability to form groups or teams to work in projects or competitions.
2)Monthly challenges to make all learners work in a goal.
3)More Quizes and Intermediate Lessons in each language if possible.

Edit.January. Currently I am working to get this goals for this year. Lets work in create teams to improve your experience as developers we need to learn how to work together.
Currently: Web Design Team. To aply look at my questions.

Answer 2

Rather than question u should give problem statement to write program. Which will increase our practical knowledge. The language will become more familiar.

Answer 3

I think the following points to be covered...

1) There are thousands of unused profiles lying on sololearn...these should be managed & should be deleted after a certain time if unused (say a month)...

2) Same thing for unuseful replies, codes, questions, & other posts...otherwise the app would get crowded by that waste...

3) We can have private chats too (as most of my peers are suggesting)...but it's frequency should be restricted by a limit otherwise sololearn would become a chatting app...& there would be an easy way for timepassers...

4) Some competitions may also be organized by the sololearn management... but monopoly of top rankers need to be strictly avoided & newbies should also have an equal chance...

5) A practice tab can also be added...where sololearners can practice questions &/or codes but no xp should be awarded (+/-) for that...

These were the ideas according to me can be implemented with further corrections...if needed...
What do u guys think??

Answer 4

Linux shell. For reals :)

Answer 5

adding data structures and algorithms courses would be nice.

Answer 6

add lessons on more programming languages topics eg : security, computer graphics...

Answer 7

Android

Answer 8

1. Capstone projects which would undergo peer review and be graded by other SoloLearn users - with variants, like solo project, team project, etc.
2. GitHub Tutorial with quizzes
3. Video lectures (MOOCs)
4. Webframeworks - Django, RoR Tutorial

Answer 9

i think they need to implement practical program to practice so that we will able to write program and increase the memory,by using solo learn i understand the concept very well but i need a program to practice so that i will code myself and check if it's true or not.

Answer 10

coding tournaments

Answer 11

Network programming in the Python course would be awesome

Answer 12

bash scripting

Answer 13

adding more courses like angular js, react js, bootstrap, node js, laravel and also data structures and algorithms

Answer 14

we should have like an excersise/practice section where there are many excercises and problems to practice.. these will give us confidence and teach the subject.

Answer 15

they should add some better challenge or competition that you unlock after you complete a language
like for example you have to code a hello world page
then one for a calculator
then one for a basic pong game
that would help to keep people into the challenge and teach them how to code bigger programs

Answer 16

I disagree with your first point. Some Sololearn users are students who stay out in school for close to three months so deleting accounts which are idle for say a month would not favour people like me.

Answer 17

I think sololearn has to improve the learning by giving more practically with some videos, more programs, competitions & some projects to improve the skills

Answer 18

I don't think having a private chat is a good idea because if two people are chatting privately regarding a project or code, then the history of the discussion to the solution will not be available to others or answer might be lost. let stick to openness like stackoverflow.com

Answer 19

compatibility with GUIs in languages like JAVA, data modeling (like UML) and gaming engines guides like Unity or Unreal Engine

Answer 20

It would be nice if we could review the answers to challenges, so that we can learn from our mistakes
