Spaced Repetition is a learning method where you do regular, short study sessions over a longer period of time instead of cramming for hours on end. Spaced Repetition makes use of an algorithm to determine the best time for you to review flashcards you’ve already learned, thus improving your efficiency and increasing your long-term retention.
There are four ratings for you to choose from: “Bad”, “OK”, “Good”, “Perfect”. The rating you decide represents how well you know each card. You can also reset the Spaced Repetition progress in your mobile app. This will restart your learning cycle and your flashcards will be considered unrated again.
This is the perfect option for you if you need a fresh start and want to learn and rate your flashcards from scratch!
