1,614 PointsSuggestion: Functions before Tuples
Having the short introduction to tuples come before the lengthy review of functions doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Review functions so that the student remembers the content of the previous lessons, then explain what tuples are, then explain how they work together. Introducing tuples and then ignoring them for over an hour does not help the student remember tuples when they're brought up again to be used in functions.
This happened in the previous course, where lists within lists were quickly introduced, then completely ignored for the 'make a shopping list app' section, then lists within lists were on the quiz at the end of the section, where we had to write code we hadn't practiced before. This is NOT conducive to learning! Please organize your classes so that each lesson builds on the one directly before!
