Design Challenge

After you've finished everything, ask to see if anyone around you could use help.

If people around you are doing fine, then continue with the challenge (do these in any order)…

  1. Design a better grading scheme for the quiz. For example, currently, there is no way of even knowing that I'm being scored unless I get all the answers correct. This is a terrible design choice. Make a better one.
  2. Design an experience that will teach the user the mathematical concepts of prime numbers and permutations/combinations
  3. Go into your Wordpress and, on your dashboard, customize your site [Appearance]
  4. Write a blog that summarizes your experience today and post screenshots
