Description

A memorization application that uses one card type with three learner-selectable retrieval modes of varying cueing difficulty for practicing poems, scripts, and other extended passages verbatim.

Components

  • By Heart single card type with three self-selectable retrieval modes of varying difficulty: For verbatim memorization of extended passages, By Heart presents one card type with three user-selectable retrieval modes: Strip Peek (all lines hidden, tap to reveal for 2 seconds, highest effort), Step Through (past lines dimmed, current line bold), and First Word (opening word only as cue, lowest effort). The modes are "three points on the cue-target continuum identified in retrieval practice research", and self-selection per session operationalizes desirable difficulties within a practical UI.
