Try spaced repetition!

Spaced repetition is faster, easier and more effective!

Spaced repetition is a learning technique that exploits the psychological spacing effect. Research has suggested that by spacing out the information you want to learn, it is more likely that the information will be retained in long term memory.

Ideal for Vocabulary

Vocabulary terms and phrases are discrete units of information. This type of information is particularly suited to memorisation through spaced repetition.

Faster and More Effective

The spacing algorithms naturally spread out the workload. Students need not review every word every day, thereby reducing study times.

Personalised to Every Student

Every term in every word list is individually tracked so that intervals can customised to each student's own learning patterns.

The Spacing Effect

Spaced repetition is a technique that leverages the psychological spacing effect. The central idea of the spacing effect is that information reviewed a few times, over a longer period of time, is more effectively memorised than the same information reviewed many times, over a shorter period of time. This can explain why cramming before an exam (frequent reviews over a short period) may result in a good short term retention of information, but you forget the information just as quickly. Spaced repetition uses some of the theory behind the spacing effect create personalised schedules for the information you want to learn.

Intervals

The interval is the amount of time to delay a flashcard before showing it again. The interval is automatically calculated after each time you score a flashcard and is constantly modified for each and every flashcard based on your learning progress. In addition, because words are spaced out over time it is no longer necessary to practice every word on every day. This reduces study time while increasing effectiveness.

Scoring

A key part of the spaced repetition system is self-scoring. After reviewing each word you are required to score yourself on how well you recalled the term (or if you didn't). The space repetition algorithm then uses this score, as well as information stored from previous scores to determine your new interval. Generally, a good score increases the interval and a poor score decreases the interval.
