Focus Streams (Coming Soon)

This section is split into multiple areas of focus.

The intention is that you would follow a focus stream, for example Focus 1 and you would move through the different focus assignments. Once you get to the end of the focus stream, there is an end of focus task, which will be a programming brief for you to solve, in order for you to complete the focus stream.

The reasoning behind this approach is one of repetition, as it is an incredibly useful approach to learning new skills. Work through and repeatedly use the move blocks, and you’ll become more confident using them. Repeat this with sensing, and repeat using them together and you’ll start to feel more confident using them in different solutions.

As of writing there are 2 focus streams, with more to follow.
