Tutorials have to be redone when revisited

Open ArturJD96 opened this issue 10 months ago • 6 comments

One cannot skip the step in the tutorial.

That would normally not be an issue, but if somebody wants to go to specific step in the tutorial, they have to start all over again.

Thank you @ArturJD96 . That's kind of part of the pedagogical approach. ;D

If there is a strong need to skip steps, we could talk about it, but for now, we would not change it. That's OK with you?

It's not urgent indeed., I agree. There are some scenarios when it is a nuisance (e.g. browsing on phone makes it difficult to fill the test, not to mention re-filling it).

@musicEnfanthen One result of this is presumably that only the whole tutorial is citable, not individual steps. This is probably ok for small tutorials, but I can see it being a limitation.

@DILewis I see your point, but there is no url fragment for the single steps, so the tutorial can only be cited as a whole at the moment.

@ArturJD96 Are you OK with closing the issue for now, since there is not much we can do about it?

Perhaps that would defeat the purpose but what about adding an option to "show answer" that would allow for progressing the tutorial without the need to explicitly type the answer?

Again, I adress the situation of e.g. mobile browsing or consulting a single step after tutorial accomplishment – not taking shortcuts during learning.
