Cohort-based courses #241

Open nileshtrivedi opened 3 years ago

nileshtrivedi commented 3 years ago

A course will be a series of levels/challenges, curated by teachers which will be reputed topic experts
Each level requires submitting a proof of learning
Students can enroll in courses but they get access to the next level and the peer group ONLY after their proof of learning is accepted by the teachers
The chat rooms for each level - supports highly engaging discussions, video calls, collaborations and more

This turns our existing syllabuses - which are sequences of learning resources along with commentary - into richer, more engaging courses. The fact that every level will require an accomplishment that students are genuinely proud of, will keep giving them the energy. And that they would be left out of amazing peer group unless they pass the levels, will keep giving them the motivation.

[ ] Upon logout from LearnAwesome, user should be logged out from chat as well
[ ] Users can modify their nickname, but that will break their chat account link. Ideally, nickname change should update it in chat as well
[ ] set_avatar API call is being made with admin token. It can be made with user's own token.
[ ] Not sure what's the expiry policy for loginToken is. It may cause issues because we are saving it and always taking the saved value first.

Hi, I would like to work on this issue, Can I get started with this?

nileshtrivedi commented 3 years ago

@prsmahajan Yes. You can go through the commits above, but before you start adding new code, propose a plan here first?

prsmahajan commented 3 years ago

What are the problems you are facing?

nileshtrivedi commented 3 years ago

There are unchecked items listed in my comment above: https://github.com/learn-awesome/learn/issues/241#issuecomment-812982028

But perhaps, you can suggest your own improvements once you try the Course feature.

(Upon logout from LearnAwesome, user should be logged out from chat as well Users can modify their nickname, but that will break their chat account link. Ideally, nickname change should update it in chat as well) I can resolve these two issues, Would you like to assign me for this issue?

nileshtrivedi commented 3 years ago

Can you ping me on LearnAwesome slack? Let's discuss a bit.

@sahilcode17 If you can write unit tests and integration tests for this functionality, that would be very helpful.
