The data storage with educational decks Anki

On the pages of LifeHacker.ru we have already talked about a web service to create a training and further storing sheets of material - HeadMagnet (our review). Today we will focus on Anki program that undertakes the process of our education, diagnosis and analysis of the progress made on training exercises decks. Teaching cards allow to study foreign languages, programming languages, concepts, memorize the names of people, geographical data, and even memorize guitar chords.

Anki unlike HeadMagnet is a program rather than the desktop client. It works by itself, if necessary, download the server training deck. Registration on Anki Online was useful only to create a training pack.

To start exploring, select a deck of cards with educational and begin the process. Anki interface is divided into two parts - the upper part of the question at the bottom of the hidden answer.

After mentally progovorennogo answer click the button "Show answer" and choose one of the following: I do not remember, still learning, I remember, I know (in various educational decks may be present transcription of foreign words, an example of pronunciation or graphic arts). Meet the need to be honest, because it will be determined by the method of data repetition:

• I do not remember - the first stage assumes that you do not know the educational material, or forget it. The card will be repeated often until the note;
• still learning - the second stage of the learning process. You teach and repeat important time. Card with material for memorization will be repeated two days later;
• I remember - memory already gives the answer, but to stop it is impossible to repeat. The next time the matter will be given in four days;
• I know - the final stage in which only need to fix the data, confirm knowledge. Frequency of repetition times in five days.

At the conclusion of the lesson is informed about the number of cards that will be added or repeated in the next lesson. In the options of learning setting is subject to the number of new cards per day, restriction of the lesson time, or the number of questions and stuff.

In the "Charts" provides information on the number of cards, waiting for a repetition of a new day. During the training the number of repetitions at first increases and then decreases. the daily amount spent time researching and viewing decks of cards the current time is displayed in the diagram view.

There is the concept of "cumulative expectation" that characterizes the number of cards, which after some time will gain the status of "pending", that is a long time not to repeat and abandoned in the process training.

Get to work in Anki easier than HeadMagnet, so there is no need to deal with the input system for storing material. Also can cause difficulty in English HeadMagnet, and Anki this issue has been resolved, although the program and is in version 0.9.9.
