Lets do this the easy way shall we.
First, start with
This type of question the second part in particular are rare but are one of those "All roads lead to Rome but some are messier than others."

Be careful of making such prophesies for one needs to let the person learn at their own rate and not be pressured unfairly. What you say might not occur and he might burn out if he does not know what he is doing.
Wise words
Aww thank you guys

not intended as a prophecy as implied from the casual tone/punctuation but more of a hyperbolic compliment to demonstrate my appreciation of his effort but I understand where you're coming from. If it was taken or subtly felt as I was expecting him to be the next euler, newton... then apologies for that.
Yeah its been a joy just seeing qs from you, regardless of however you perform you should be really proud of yourself for going above and beyond

Alternatively if you wanted do it the hard way...
using
we can just continually evaluate 
to get
}{2(n-1)+1}\times\frac{-2(n-2)}{2(n-2)+1}\times...\times\frac{-2(2)}{2(2)+1}\times\frac{-2(1)}{2(1)+1}\times{I_{0}}\\\\\\I_n=\frac{-2n}{2n+1}\times\frac{-2(n-1)}{2(n-1)+1}\times\frac{-2(n-2)}{2(n-2)+1}\times...\times\frac{-2(2)}{2(2)+1}\times\frac{-2(1)}{2(1)+1}\times1\\\\\\I_{n}=\frac{(-1)^n\cdot2^n\cdot{n!}}{(2n+1)(2n-1)(2n-3)...5\cdot3\cdot1})
Looking at the denominator, it almost appears like (2n+1)! but it seems to be going down by 2s skipping all the even numbers. So we can add the even numbers by multiplying the numeratpr and denominator by the 'missing' set of numbers, to get (2n+1)!
^n\cdot2^n\cdot{n!}\cdot(2n)(2n-2)(2n-4)...6\cdot4\cdot2}{(2n+1)(2n)(2n-1)(2n-2)(2n-3)...5\cdot4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}\\\\\\I_{n}=\frac{(-1)^n\cdot2^n\cdot{n!}\cdot2^n\cdot{n}(n-1)(n-2)...3\cdot2\cdot1}{(2n+1)!}\\\\\\I_{n}=\frac{(-1)^n\cdot2^{2n}\cdot{n!}\cdot{n!}}{(2n+1)!}\\\\\\I_{n}=\frac{(-1)^n\cdot2^{2n}\cdot{(n!)^2}}{(2n+1)!}\ \text{as required})

Oh you are going to have to do a lot of integration by parts for thatAlternatively if you wanted do it the hard way...
