Could Sololearn make the Module Quizzes a little harder?

Question

Suggestions are:
If you get something wrong you have to go through the corresponding lesson again

More questions that basically review everything that was learned in that module

More complex questions than just multiple choice, maybe even whole blocks that you have to code by yourself (maybe as a bonus)

Thanks

Answer 1

1. you can revise on your own accord. forced revision each time you make a typo is not that great.

2.adding more questions won't fix the issue. however if you think the existing ones need revision then it's a good idea.

3. i can just return the needed value in the subfunction and voilá - i did the task.

Answer 2

1: yes of course but if you got it wrong then you obviously didn't understand everything...I go back myself to take a look at things again when I got something wrong for revision...it would be easier if sololearn shows you the corresponding module again by itself
...learning can be annoying sometimes but revision is still one of the best learning methods

2: No it doesn't, look at python module 5...the last lesson is a complex example and the quiz is way to easy afterwards

3: Something like a main function that calls sub functions and you as a learner have to programm or at least fill in completely the subfunction...if the subfunction returns the right thing for the given parameters, the main function returns success

Something like that, I bet there are thousands of ways to program something like that ;) it might be a challenge but that's just programming, right?

Answer 3

1: in fact, i believe it should be up to the person to find the right chapters, as it would be much more brain intensive and better for learning, instead of blunt "look at this chapter, the answer lies here". otherwise it would turn into a hand-guided experience, which learning isn't.

2: since this site is aimed at beginners to learn programming from scratch, i don't think harder questions are needed. you have Challenges for that anyway.

3: for learning purposes you might as well start programming for real.

Answer 4

1: annoying
2: doesn't it already do that?
3: and how would you check if the code is valid?

Answer 5

1. well true but would it hurt? in my eyes you can never revise too much...they should at least tell you again what's wrong and why or why the correct answer is correct when you finally get it

2. I just would like it to be more challenging, if you look at the last complex example in module 5 before the quiz...this makes me think about the code for a while to get what going on...I'd like to
be challenged like that in the quiz, to be sure that I really understood everything in the module

3. ok true again...maybe do it without getting bonus points for it, so it doesn't make any sense to do the bonus and cheat...just for learning purposes, you know :)

Answer 6

1. hand guided learning would be more efficient though, thanks to the app then

2. well then probably offer different difficulties? because I'm not a professional or experienced programmer, I learned c++ for 1 semester now and I wish the python quizzes where more challenging to dig deeper into this new language

3. yes and I'm doimg that, with c++... and it would be great if the app would provide this service for all languages for everyone to use

Answer 7

annoying and how would you check if the code is valid?
