Here's what research says about puzzle-based learning:
"Students who were quizzed after studying a short text could recall significantly more information than students who were asked to reread it"
- Karpicke, 2007, Elsevier Journal of Memory and Language
Practice testing is scientifically proven to generate up to 44% better learning retention and efficiency.
Simply put: quizzes and puzzles work! More than 100,000 Finxters and thousands of "Coffee Break Python" book customers have already successfully improved their skills with code puzzles.
Learning does not happen in a linear and orderly manner. It's a probabilistic, chaotic, and iterative process of creating knowledge gaps in your brain - and filling them with just the right information you need.
That's the premise of the "Coffee Break Python" textbook series.
