Ideal online learning experience:

1. Lessons that are applicable to me.
 a. CompSci data structures
 b. CompSci algorithms
 c. CompSci operating systems
 d. CompSci (sensing a theme?) database design
2. Variety of questions which are in increasing difficulty (with approximate levels for each question)
3. The ability to have someone validate my answers (I'd pay for this, not sure if its per-question, per-lesson or per-"semester")
4. A bit of code that would evolve over the course of the "semester"

Hey,

I just want to say thanks so much for getting in touch. While I'm not
looking for work directly at this moment, I do think a partnership
could be possible. Have you seen https://sprint.ly/ ? Its a really
great, next-gen project management tool that helps connect business
users to developers in ways that make sense to both sides. Maybe your
company or a company you know might be able to make use of it? There
are a great number of companies already shipping great software with
it and there is a 30 day free trial, no questions asked.
