Paper Abstract:
|
This work briefly reviews pertinent research on learning and memorization. Specifically, it has been demonstrated that
spaced repetition and targeted mnemonic strategies greatly facilitate the learning process and foster long-term recall. One
possibility to apply these principals is their incorporation into specialized e-learning tools such as MemoryLifter, a free
educational software, which is introduced. The software features a timed multimedia learning environment based on the
Leitner algorithm and incorporates mnemonic elements to enhance the learning experience. |
