Mastery
Challenges
The Design Dojo’s unique Mastery Challenges develop your professional skill set and allow you to earn points outside of the major projects. Yep, you could think of them as extra credit - but they are way cooler than that.
-
For validation, challenges need to be performed in-person.
You can submit one challenge per day
The challenge should be applicable to the current app/project.
The goal for each of these challenges is true mastery, so no partial credit (but you can try again then next day).
The window for submitting a challenge ends on the penultimate week of the semester.
