Describe your feature request
Can you please unlock the requirement to have completed all of the 100 days of code before being able to move on?

What problem(s) would this feature solve?
I work with students every day and it is discouraging to those who have coded before to have to go through all the days of code to get to the one what they are interested in learning. I’m not sure what benefit there is for requiring that every day of code is complete before being able to move on. The content is great and should be able to be jumped into and out of as needed.

Explain what you were trying to do when you came across the problem leading to this feature request
Teach kids how to use python

Hi I totally agree it should be possible to move on more quickly , eg via a test of some sort, or it will possibly just say you skipped the previous n pages.

That surely would still be a positive way to use this resource, otherwise, a lot of the pages are not going to be accessed which is a waste.

Also is it possible to somehow add this to a team so a teacher can choose where students can start?

I just press the lesson complete button on the days that teach stuff I already know

That seems like not an ideal use case. If you can fake it so easily then why lock them at all. Also, I don’t like the idea of encouraging students to suggest they’ve already done stuff that they haven’t done.

If a student jumps in at the wrong point and needs to go backwards they have already “completed” that content. It also doesn’t allow for the case where a student is skipping content because of a specific need and will want to go back to that point in the future. Kids are not very good at self-assessment imo.
