Coming from a student's perspective here. I would advise doing your best to help the student learn. That is why they are applying for your position. Because they want a great experience that they can put on their resume and also so they can learn a new skill. Show them how the things you are working with them on can be used not only in your application, but in applications in general. At the same time however, give the student time to learn on their own. Give them the resources they need to solve a problem and then let them go for it. When they need help, show them how to find help or help them yourself.
