SuperMemo (for Windows)
"Train your brain" multimedia speed learning software
SuperMemo is a multimedia study tool which can greatly increase the effectiveness of learning of any subject represented as text, graphics or sound. Program is based on a breakthrough in scientific research on memory and learning and allows you to reach the maximum possible speed of learning for a given level of knowledge retention. SuperMemo adapts the learning strategy to individual capabilities of the student and is an unparalleled tool in mastering foreign languages, studying sciences, medicine and other subjects where memorising a large number of names (formulas etc.) is the key issue.
By optimizing the spacing of repetitions, SuperMemo makes it possible to reduce the time needed to memorize and retain knowledge. Over a long period and for high levels of knowledge retention, the gain may be up to 50-fold! This incredible figure can be reached by applying a unique algorithm for scheduling repetitions. SuperMemo computes the longest possible inter-repetition interval that results in a selected level of knowledge retention, thus making use of the so-called spacing effect widely described in literature on psychology and neurophysiology.
