Last Wednesday, I was discussing learning and spaced repetition with a co-worker. A couple good things came out of this conversation.
Firstly, that I should blog more. This inspired me to finish up an introductory article on spaced repetition that I had been working on for Memorati™. I also decided to try and make Tuesday be blog-day. Since I spend so much time writing each entry, Tuesday will really just be blog-publish-day, but thats fine, whatever gets me to post more.
We also discussed my experience using Memorati with its algorithms and some things that have been unsatisfying about them. Those things are:
- The aggressiveness of the algorithm used should vary with the number of cards a user has decided to tackle. Aggressive algorithms work better for lots of cards but less aggressive is better for fewer cards.
