Make difficult lvl for certifications

amejl172 · March 19, 2021, 5:48am

I came up with an idea,
1 star = Beginner.
2 star = Easy.
3 star = Experienced.
4 star = Hard.
5 star = Expert (harder than 4 star).

If you complete the certifications you rank up in lvl.
You start at lvl 1star, then when it’s completed you can do it again but harder (2star).
Last lvl is 5 star.

Hi @amejl172 !

I feel like the new curriculum kind of does this.

You learn different languages and concepts by building projects. No more challenges.

You start off with easier concepts like create an array here or create an object here and then as you progress it becomes more involved and difficult.

I’m having problem with catching on to the next challenges. I was thinking if they could make lvl 1 of arrays, then lvl2 of arrays. So you learn it more. Also with the other stuff in programming not only arrays.

I think the current lvl freeCodeCamp has now is Medium, if they add lvl Easy and Hard it would be more fun.

Yeah I see your point with the current curriculum.
But I think the new project based curriculum will help ease people into these concepts a little bit smoother.

For example, we have this RPG game.
Each lesson builds off of the previous concepts a little more.

You can see that we keep building out this locations array little by little and it helps with that repetition.

let xp = 0;
let health = 100;
let gold = 50;
let currentWeapon = 0;
let fighting;
let monsterHealth;
let inventory = ["stick"];

const button1 = document.querySelector("#button1");
const button2 = document.querySelector("#button2");
const button3 = document.querySelector("#button3");
const text = document.querySelector("#text");
const xpText = document.querySelector("#xpText");
const healthText = document.querySelector("#healthText");
const goldText = document.querySelector("#goldText");
const monsterStats = document.querySelector("#monsterStats");
const monsterNameText = document.querySelector("#monsterName");
const monsterHealthText = document.querySelector("#monsterHealth");

/* Arrays can store any data type, including objects. Objects are similar to arrays, except that instead of using indexes to access and modify their data, you access the data in objects through what are called properties. Inside the `locations` array add an empty object using curly braces. Here is an example of an array named `arr` with an empty object inside: `const arr = [{}];`

I can’t find this on freeCodeCamp, is it going to be added?

jwilkins.oboe · March 19, 2021, 6:24am

Eventually.

The team is still creating projects and then it needs to be tested.

amejl172 · March 19, 2021, 6:26am

That’s good. Will freeCodeCamp add vue lessons also. I’m doing the front end right now but they don’t have vue.

jwilkins.oboe · March 19, 2021, 6:28am

As of right now, I just heard they are adding typescript.
