How It Works

☑️ In-Course Activities

  • 💡 Each week, there will be activities that learners can complete.
  • 💡 These activities range from simple skill demonstrations (e.g. perform a pull request) to major structural support (e.g. create a spreadsheet model for experimenting with voting algorithms).
  • 💡 Each activity has a specified point value.
  • 💡 Learners will be responsible for keeping their own records of completed tasks (Points Tracker spreadsheet). These records will be submitted at tbe end of the course for review.
  • 💡 To be eligible for the NFT, the learner must acquire a total of at least 30 points from completed verifiable tasks.
