Effective Spaced Repetition

Mochi

I’d like to add Mochi to the list https://mochi.cards/ It’s just a standard flashcard tool like Anki, but with a much better user interface and a simpler (IMO superior) SRS algorithm.

Anki

Spaced repetition looks very promising to me. I've been a long-time Anki [1] user, and it allowed me to learn Czech much faster. Recently I launched a website [2] where I try to blend a markdown-based knowledge manager with spaced repetition. It's not an easy task and there's a long way to go, but after adding and maintaining > 400 cards, I already [1] https://apps.ankiweb.net/.

Tatoeba

And you have to complete the cloze with "jours". The sentences are compiled automatically from Tatoeba[1], the cloze deletion is done on the least-common word[2]. This combines vocabulary with grammar. I didn't like the Clozemaster UI so I wrote a script to make the clozes myself: https://borretti.me/article/building-diy-clozemaster But automatic approaches are not great. Later I asked GPT-4 to make these flashcards for me, that gave me much better/more meaningful results.

Maybe try drawing the key points instead of text cards. Idea sparked by the below, which is awesome but requires someone else who already understands to create the learning material first. "Each 5-minute video, or 'cartoon', is the equivalent of 50 minutes of a university-level computer graphics class. ... there was no statistically significant difference in learning effectiveness between [cartoons & lectures] as measured by exam, homework, and project scores. In other words, the cartoons were just as effective as traditional classrooms for teaching the material." https://g5m.cs.washington.edu/ <a href="https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWfDJ5nla8UpwShx-lzLJqcp575fKpsSO">https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWfDJ5nla8UpwShx-lzLJqcp5...</a>.

Productivity Power Tools

I'm a big fan of the Recall plugin for VS Code. https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=frenya.vscode-recall You get all the code highlighting and markdown support built-in to the IDE. I used this plugin when studying data structures and algorithms for cracking faang interviews.

Traverse.link

If you're interested in a more visual approach you can try https://traverse.link/ - it's an app I created which has spaced repetition, but really its goal is to cover the whole learning process, so it also has mind mapping and note-taking so you get a big picture view of what you're learning, why reinforcing bottom-up with spaced repetition.
