I agree there are so many issues with coding education, (full disclosure, that's why I'm building Qvault.io) but I don't think the big problems are the ones presented here.
I see the following as the biggest unsolved problems:
1. Online learning rarely teaches you what you should be learning. Resources are useless if you don't know which subject matter is right for you yet.
2. Platforms don't give you a feel for "completion", e
g. when and how should I start job searching.
3. You don't get personal mentorship or cohort support like you would at school
4. Too many videos, not enough code. Almost all learning when it comes to coding should include writing code.
5. Healthy mix of guided and unguided learning. Courses are great for abstract concepts, projects need to follow so that you can apply what you learn on your own
