You might be used to school environments where you attend a lecture or class and then are given homework or tests to show you heard or understood the lecture. We don't do that at CYF as we have found it doesn't prepare people well for a good job in tech.
As a tech professional, you won't be told a series of answers and then asked just to demonstrate your understanding/recollection of them! That will never happen! There's no business value there at all. As a tech professional, your job will be to ask good questions, research new ideas, and figure out solutions to unsolved problems. So let's start this now.
The prep work here will introduce you to new concepts for the week. If you already have all these concepts, you need to identify something else in your coursework to bring because everyone is expected to come to class with questions.
