Most learners spend hours watching programming tutorials but takes forever to write few lines of code.
This is a HUGE problem.
Why?
Because if we aren't actively doing it, we won't learn any skill. Watching or reading makes learner passive since they are teacher centered. More about active and passive learning
How to make sure we actually learn programming?
Before that, Let me tell me you a tiny bit about myself.
About me
Hey! I'm Prasad. I failed to master any programming language and staying distant from my dream of being a good programmer. That's it about me relevant to programming.
The fact that I enrolled into best courses available and paid subscribed to sites didn't help me in achieving my goal. My skills aren't depth that I never actually built anything so far on my own. Ever experience it?
I almost gaveup on learning Javascript but then luckily I found Scrimba
Scrimba and 24 day JavaScriptmas Challenge
Never imagined a short tweet of few characters on my timeline impacts my next upcoming 30 days and starts a learning journey. That tweet is from Scrimba announcing #JavaScriptmas challenges is 24 day streak with exciting prize.
I see too often the phrase "do it 21 days and it becomes your habit". I give it a try and here I am writing this after completing my 23rd day challenge. I proudly present my challenges below for reference.
I cherish every moment in doing these challenges whether it is chats with fellow scrimbites in Discord or learning proximity topics by googling.
