as a student i definitely look for coding that will lead up to a real-life project or an immediate short-term project. I think courses like freecodecamp, don't really have much meaning to a newbie because there is no immediate context to what you are doing and you can't really mess around on the tutorial and see what happens... visual learning is very important as is being able to manipulate projects. I would rather have 4 projects interspersed than 4 big ones at the end where you just think "what did i just learn? I can't do this!"
Also tutorials are good but they need to be followed with interactivity that can be graded with a pass fail or a step completed type direction like i found on Khan academy that was very helpful...
