jMemorize: Learn stuff with flash cards
Monday, March 19th, 2007
This is a flash card program for helping you to learn stuff. Although the most obvious use for jMemorize is learning foreign words and expressions, you can use it for a variety of other tasks which require memorization.
Card decks are the key part of jMemorize. At the beginning, all the cards are placed in what’s called the Start Deck.
During a learning session, you answer the question on each card. If you answered correctly, the card is moved to the next higher deck. A wrong answer keeps the card in the Start Deck. Based on your success rate during multiple learning sessions, it places the cards in different decks according to your success rate in answering the question. The cards in every deck have an expiration time, at which time jMemorize reactivates the already learned cards so that you can refresh your knowledge.
It’s written in Java, so it will run on most systems and browsers. You can download it here and its open source, so it’s free!
