• Main Curriculum: cards with that label represent courses that are listed in our curriculum.
• Extra Resources: cards with that label represent courses that were added by the student.
• Doing: cards with that label represent courses the student is currently doing.
• Done: cards with that label represent courses finished by the student. Those cards should also have the link for at least one project/article built with the knowledge acquired in such a course.
• Section: cards with that label represent the section that we have in our curriculum. Those cards with the Section label are only to help the organization of the Done column. You should put the Course's cards below its respective Section's card.
