19. The program will show you a term and you have to think of the answer,
or even better, say it out loud.
After clicking on Show the answer, the correct term will be revealed .

20. Now you can give your card a grade from 0 to 5,
depending on how well you knew the answer
0 and 1 if you didn’t know or remember the term at all
4 and 5 if you knew straight away
2 and 3 choose if it takes significant effort to remember the answer
20
21. Cards you graded 1 and 0
come up during the same session and the next day
repeatedly until you gan give them a higher grade
Cards you graded 2 and 3
come up in shorter intervals
(days, until you can grade them a 4 or 5)
Cards you graded 4 and 5
take longer to show up again
(weeks or even months, after a certain amount of shorter intervals)

22. You can improve your learning by editing
cards you have problems remembering, or
consider very important, by adding
example sentences, pictures or even
sound.
