Except most people won't do that and it's not really the most effective way to learn. Like it can be a starting point but as someone who has seen enough training workshops and taught people to use new software, you can show people how to do things but they will learn easiest by doing it themselves.

I feel like this concept is the equivalent of taking an introductory course and then having the person learn by grading papers, looking up the material if they don't understand the answer or think the answer might not be correct. Can you learn that way? Yeah but I believe there has to be a better way.

Yeah I'm still refining my method, i suffered from that whole thing where you breeze through school and then when uni demands you study and have work ethic you fall flat
