I'd say talk about "Reverse-Engineering Visual Design". As a coder who understands some of the basic principles of design but just can't seem to make it click, that would be the most interesting for me. Optimization and SEO are nice, but i

What do they consider studying though? Is paper writing counted as studying? Is online homework or problem sets counted as studying? Because I can tell you from personal experience that often those things take up much of my time, and tend t
