Difficultly knowing 'how far to go' #16

Open nekopanic opened 12 years ago

nekopanic commented 12 years ago

One student noted that it was difficult to know (or even guess) how far they still had to go in the exercises. Which can understandably make them a little anxious over time pressure later in the day.

Any good ideas how to fix this?

We could add constant reminders about how far in the curriculum they are (Congratulations, half-way!), which would need constant revisiting if we're expanding the curriculum. We could try to have all chapters more or less equally-sized and then just show chapter numbers. We could add an introduction and prepare them for the size of the curriculum.

Other ideas? Preferences?
