Please note the following:
- New cards can be reviewed once a day.
- Edit the number of Review cards to review over multiple sessions per day.
- Words will be added to Review the day after they have been studied in the conversations courses.
Review assists learners by presenting them with keywords and phrases that they’ve been exposed to in Mango Conversations over time, at specific intervals. The objective is to help learners memorize these keywords and phrases through the use of Mango’s spaced repetition algorithm. By inserting these review activities in between new learning opportunities, learners’ proficiency of a given language is strengthened over time.
Learners will be prompted for a daily review activity for only those words and phrases (referred to individually as cards) that are scheduled to be reviewed (card eligibility for daily review activity is based on a combination of predetermined time intervals and the outcomes of the learner’s previous interactions with a given card). This essentially automates the task of keeping up with the long-term review for the learner.
Note: Words will be added to Review the day after they have been studied in the conversations courses.
