How do I browse specific items in the course

So I have been happily doing the Treehouse curriculum as designed, just taking one video at a time. However, I somehow worked my way into a Python project at work (good news) and now I am scrambling looking for specific topics that I have not covered yet.

The whole "not being able to browses specific videos" (i.e. Classes, KWarg etc) is not helpful as I need to cram for information right now. I find myself using YouTube instead. I would rather use this curriculum. Is there a menu I can browse for specific Python videos?

This is a tough one to be honest. I know what you're asking, but the only real search function I've found is here on the community. The easiest way probably (and someone correct me if I'm wrong, please!) would be to look on the tracks link at the left side here. Then pick the track you think it might be in but don't click resume or switch! Instead click on the bigger square containing that button. That will take you into a list with courses. Again click on the course you suspect might hold the information you're looking for. At the top there is a start course/watch trailer button. But if you scroll down just a tiny bit, there's a checklist with what you will learn in that course. If it's not what you're looking for, back up and try again. Hope this helps!

The closest thing I can think of is that you can open the course and see all the video/challenge/quiz titles on the index page, grouped by section. But you still have to open each course. Does that help?

Index Page? That is what I am refering too. There is not Index page that I can see

Hey Ralph,

If you go to the Library list (the icon on the left that looks like a book) and limit it to display only Python Courses and Workshops, you can browse all the Python courses/workshops and the descriptions.

There is a search bar on this screen as well, but it will only search the titles and descriptions, and not what is talked about in the videos.

Good luck :)

:dizzy:

The "Book" does give a summary of that section but not the whole Python course. Thanks for confirming
