Anyone can learn faster with science-backed learning methods. Traverse.link lets you use those methods to study more effectively for new skills and qualifications. The app comes with linked notes, mindmapping, active recall and spaced repetition flashcards.
What a wonderful product, and what a launch. Congratulations, Dom!
As a life-long learner and ambitious-novice-in-twenty-different-fields, this is extremely appreciated.
I've read a lot about the science of learning, but had struggled to find a method that would consistently work for me to retain information. I like that Traverse.link was built to be opinionated, but with researched-based principles that are proven to work. If you're a learner of any kind, it's definitely worth trying this tool.
Thanks @tina_datta! Hope we can help a lot of learners :)
Report
The theory of Spaced-repetition and active recall optimizes the learning process by helping learners to retain information better over a longer time period.
This simple product has substantial and obvious benefits because it integrates Spaced-repetition and Active recall more accessibly and completely than ever. An invaluable addition to the canon of learning techniques.
Thanks for sharing.
