No, you are only to learn Mixolydian Patterns 1, 4 and 5 in Module 1. Further modules will assign new fingerings and modes as the harmony gets more sophisticated.
The 7 patterns are explained in detail in Module 1, so you understand the big picture as to how we are going to relate to fingerings in general from there on. This helps us speak a common and more precise language, especially when mapping out different routes we can use on the fretboard to smoothly connect the changes. That said, it takes most players at least 2 years to learn the 7 fingerings to all the commonly used scale and arpeggio families that you encounter in most 32 measure standards. So please don’t let it overwhelm you! Now, if you’re a more advanced player and you can learn them at a faster pace, go for it!
