We mention often that the best coding bootcamp students embrace the process of learning to code over the results of their code. Now, we have a mental model and data to back up our advice.

We'll discuss Mark's mental model for this framing - "The Super Mario Effect" - and what effect gamification can have on your skill acquisition.
