data-science VS missing-semester

Look into MIT opencourseware — eg https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/6-0002-introduction-to-computational-thinking-and-data-science-fall-2016/. Or try a Google search "site:github.com data analysis full course"; this from OSSU seems good https://github.com/ossu/data-science. There are tons of free CS/data courses out there and there's no need to pay. You can go through the whole undergrad CS curriculum online free. Of all high paying industries, tech is by far the easiest to self-teach for free. You DM if you're not able to find something that works for you and we can discuss.

I would recommend you to check out the Data Scientist study plan made by OSSU (https://github.com/ossu/data-science), it is literally the Data Science career but with free resources, including Coursera courses.

Path to a free self-taught education in Data Science

I'm a CS student from a third world country and I'm really interested in Data Science. Biggest issue is that my univeristy is bullshit. Zero serious work. I'm still taking classes only because of that degree that I can put one day on my CV. Exams are on middle school level and with just a tiny bit of knoweledge you can pass easily. I started learning some coding online from CS50 and I became really interested in Data Science/ML. I was looking for roadmaps and this one looks really good to me to go with. OSSU - DATA SCIENCE

Not a tutor but here’s a good resource to aid you in your journey, best of luck

She can run through this to see if data is the right field for her, before sinking money into it: https://github.com/ossu/data-science

Just to add a resource na u might want to look into. Kumpleto na. https://github.com/ossu/data-science or https://github.com/ossu/computer-science

The missing semester of your cs education

https://missing.csail.mit.edu/

You mentioned having issues with accessory concepts so perhaps this might help: https://missing.csail.mit.edu/. There's also a chapter on git

https://missing.csail.mit.edu/ is a good way to pass the Dec-Jan break if you want to prep for CS2030S + some more general stuff.

Reflecting a little bit more I don't think it was replit's fault, per-say. But that change should have been made together with a larger adjustment to the program. Like adding a class/unit in the style of [the missing semester](https://missing.csail.mit.edu/) to make sure people came away with a good range of intuitions.

From MJD's post: I think CS curricula should have a class that focuses specifically on these issues, on the matter of how do you actually write software?

But they never do.

FWIW, MIT's "The Missing Semester of Your CS Education" attempts to deal with this lack, though, even there, it's an unofficial course taught between terms, during MIT's IAP -- Independent Activities Period[1] -- and not an actual CS course.

Link to the "missing semester of your CS degree" course by MIT.

Rightly called The Missing Semester (of Your CS Education), this class from MIT will teach you how to use some of the tools that are fundamental to the software engineering ecosystem. From shell scripting to the fundamentals of information security—spanning around 12 lectures—you can add a bunch of practical skills to your toolbox.
