Genre: Education

Release Date: December 04, 2009


Learni is an application for learning foreign words, school materials, etc. The applied learning method helps remember various things quicker and for a longer period. Learni optimizes learning by repeating the least learned words more often. Learning with Learni is easy, quick, and effective. You can perfect your knowledge during a bus trip, in your favourite coffee shop, or at home in bed, basically everywhere you have your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad.


WHAT ARE FLASHCARDS?

Flashcards are a method of learning that works by writing a question on one side of a card and the answer on the opposite side. During learning, you list through cards and based on your knowledge, you place them appropriately into the deck so that you repeat more often the cards you do not know.


WHEN IS THE USE OF LEARNI A BENEFIT?

- For learning foreign languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian, Chinese, etc.).
- Learning new words and refreshing one’s vocabulary.
- For preparing for exams – quick memorization of large quantities of learning material.
- For memory training


WHY IS LEARNING WITH LEARNI SO EFFECTIVE?

- Learni applies a unique algorithm that progressively simulates the forgetting of learned facts and recalls those facts before they are displaced from memory.
- Learni does not force the user to constantly repeat words that he/she knows, but helps concentrate on difficult facts.
- Learni individually adapts to the user’s abilities.
- Learni uses an innovative slider for the easy evaluation of factual knowledge.


CARD CREATION AND EDITING:

- Easy creation of personal cards directly within the application.
- Importing cards from Excel or Number (CSV format)
- Arranging cards into decks
- Finding cards
- Creating cards in any language


SHARING AND SAVING:

- Sending decks by a email
- Saving decks on your Mac or PC


LEARNING OVERVIEW:
