Information about the requested update
The "Introduction to Git" module claims to be 31 minutes long. But it contains an exercise which is obviously longer than the 5 minute estimation of the unit which references it, and this added duration is not taken into account in the total module's time estimation.
This relates to other modules too: the additional documentation or activities aren't taken into account in the module's time estimation.
This makes it hard for a learner to estimate how much time a module might actually take without clicking through the entire module. But if a module is clicked through, then some units might be marked as done, which is also undesirable for a learner.
Can more realistic time estimations be specified for modules? Ones which include additional exercises and/or studying materials.
