Algorithmic Learning
Author: Duane Johnson24 Jul
I’m learning about learning right now. I’ve become fascinated with SuperMemo, an algorithmic learning assistant. Unfortunately, it’s only for windows and so I keep searching for alternatives. Here are a few that I’m looking at… each of these look like possibilities for both the iPhone and the Mac (the first because it is cross-platform and the other two because they are web-based). Has anyone found other apps that meet these qualifications (iPhone & Mac compatible)?

It’s amazing how tools can speed up the learning process. I think intellegence is not having all the tools but being able to find them and use them.

Duane,
Did you know that the guys behind superMemo also created supermemo.net, an online version of the software. It has a community that creates, sells and gives away courses. There is a free iPhone app that works with the courses.
Great option for those who don’t have a PC.

@Neal: Yes, I had seen that one but it didn’t seem like it was directed toward gathering personal bits of information for memorization; rather, it has the feel of a language-learning site with pre-made decks of flash cards or something like that. Maybe you’ve seen more of the site and can speak to its flexibility?
