Course Structure - More mini apps in modules/courses

General Discussion

I’m doing the React course and had a thought about course structure. Wouldn’t it be more motivating if students built a few small projects during each module, instead of mainly “getting your hands on the keyboard” for mini challenges?

For me, building 2–3 small apps per module and then one or two bigger projects at the end would make it easier to see progress, stay motivated, and still align with the “learning by doing” approach.

Maybe Scrimba could test this in future courses, or run a poll with current students to see if others feel the same?

Hey Martin,
The size of projects is definitely something we have thought about and will continue to think about, so will definitely bear this in mind next time we are updating the React course. I think we generally are moving towards shorter projects where possible/appropriate.
