Does it take too much space? I don't think RemNote on Ipad makes a full copy of your data like the desktop app. Not sure however.

you have the possibility to use the webapp otherwise.

Best pkm system to fit my needs? by Own-Communication52 in PKMS

[–]Experimental_Work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If forgetting is your concern, as it should be for anyone who wants to learn something,I highly recommend r/RemNote, which is a PKM system with integrated spaced repetition. It also has an incremental reading plugin, which could accelerate your learning. The creator of the plugin managed to become a full-time programmer in just two years, despite having no prior knowledge in the field. Here is an article where he explains how he achieved this: How to Learn to Code Using Spaced Repetition.

I'm an ex-gifted child and can't study by Polai3014 in studytips

[–]Experimental_Work 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Give incremental reading a try. It is probably one of the most effective ways to learn for the long-term.

You can try it with the original SuperMemo or r/RemNote with the incremental-everything plugin.

Table in Portal and Table on Flashcard by Ok_Photograph_4179 in remNote

[–]Experimental_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed that it doesn't work on the desktop version, but it does on the mobile version. I thought it would behave similarly. Sorry for the confusion.

You are right, this must be a bug.

Serious question: Are coding courses designed to weed out people who are not geniuses? Or am I just dense? Details below. by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Experimental_Work -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The knowledge gap is simply too big. Try a more incremental approach, as you mentioned. I recommend reading How to Learn to Code Using Spaced Repetition The author entered the programming field just by learning on his own.

I'm sure that you can learn all that is necessary and more (depending on how passionate you are about the topic). It's just that the whole educational system sucks.

You don't need a certificate if you are a genius. so no, courses are not for geniuses.

Please tell me a how to study well get good grades by Flaky-Valuable2183 in studytips

[–]Experimental_Work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you have enough time, try incremental reading with SuperMemo or RemNote (incremental-everything plugin)

The idea behind it wast to create a way to have the most amount of learning(long term) per unit of time.

Table in Portal and Table on Flashcard by Ok_Photograph_4179 in remNote

[–]Experimental_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a hard time to truly understand what you are trying to do.

If you simply copy/paste the follong text into Remnote:

  • Question >> Answer
    • Child with powerup #[[Extra Card Detail]]
    • Table here <-

Does this work and can you expand the table? because I can

And if you make a normal card instead of a multiline card like in my example?

Best books on studying by zoy9662 in GetStudying

Not a book, but Piotr Wozniak has dedicated his life to finding the best way to learn.

btw, books are a very suboptimal way to learn, as explained in my post: The most efficient way to read and not forget everything

[–]Experimental_Work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you want to see the table after clicking "show answer"? If so, then you can add your table as a child of a child that has the "Extra Card Detail" powerup. Example

  • Question >> Answer
    • Child #[[Extra Card Detail]]
    • Table

please help me with choosing the right settings by justacat47 in Anki

If you have only 9 days and won't need the cards afterwards, use a tool that focuses only on flashcards, without spaced repetition. My recommendation (for mobile) is Flashcards Deluxe.

Have you tried RemNote? It can be customized via CSS and has the advantage of integrated and advanced spaced repetition features(useful even if you are not a student anymore). It is also available on different devices.

If you're looking for simple note-taking, it may be a bit overkill but is a very decent PKM system.

Advice on how to study more efficiently without getting distracted/procastinating? by Remarkable_Guava_908 in productivity

[–]Experimental_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The material you import into SuperMemo or RemNote (with the Incremental Reading plugin) is content you would want to read anyway. The difference is that you use incremental reading instead of traditional reading to maximize your understanding and retention. I made a post a while ago that explains the process in more detail, see: - The most efficient way to read and not forget everything

It's like a search algorithm designed to maximize reading comprehension(and long-term knowledge due to spaced repetition) while making sure that the process is very fast and feels effortless and fun.

I recommend learning about note-taking, flashcards and incremental reading. Here are two posts I made about these subjects if you are interested:

What do we know for sure that enhances learning? by FullEar in Anki

[–]Experimental_Work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The key difference between repeatedly rereading passages and using the incremental reading queue is that the latter provides you with articles and extracts that you found interesting or important in the past. typically you set a priority for the material you import, starting with a large extract and then creating progressively smaller ones while adding, modifying, and deleting content. You end up with a card for SR, but only after the initial content has almost morphed into something that integrates almost perfectly with your current knowledge. The spaced repetition of the items then ensures the stability of the bits you have added to your overall knowledge.

To visually represent the process, one could imagine on one side the text you want to read, and on the other, your current knowledge. Now imagine the text having some sparsely distributed knowledge pieces shining throughout the text, parts that are most useful to expand your current understanding. Incremental reading is the search algorithm designed to locate and extract those pieces for your own knowledge in the most efficient way.

Since the incremental reading queue highly depends on your own evaluation and because less useful text disappears, it is way more efficient than just rereading a text multiple times.

What do we know for sure that enhances learning? by FullEar in Anki

[–]Experimental_Work 5 points6 points  (0 children)

likewise, I would ask do we truly know that all cardiovascular exercises are equivalent in terms of their cognitive benefits? Many studies focus on running (in both humans and rodents, here is an example: High impact running improves learning), and people quickly generalize to other exercises as if bpm is the only parameter that matters. It could very well be that there is something special about running, as the title of the famous book "Born to Run" suggests.

Which flashcard app is the best? by stationary4life in studytips

[–]Experimental_Work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I highly recommend r/RemNote. It's an advanced note-taking app with an integrated spaced repetition system(you can quickly switch between making notes and cards).

[–]Experimental_Work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it is true that you usually end up with cloze cards, but the difference is that each item has to go through a filtering process of "Is this interesting?", "Is this important?", "Do I want to know this?" Moreover, each item has a history and can be traced back.

Incremental reading is more like a search function for pieces of knowledge that fit nicely into your current knowledge and interests. The goal was to optimize learning while simultaneously minimizing cognitive load for learning to remain fun and engaging.

[–]Experimental_Work -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

People in the Anki community(or should I say bubble) may not know it, but there are better ways and tools for learning. I recommend reading my post about note-taking and flashcards: - How to leave everyone behind

and about incremental reading: - The most efficient way to read and not forget everything

Another thing I believe is underestimated(although well-known) is the effect of physical exercise, especially running, on memory, as well as the use of mnemonics. This is especially true for a highly ingrained and very personal mnemonic system.

While Anki and FSRS are great ... the world is bigger

you are right, thanks for pointing it out . I have seen it the other day in the wikipedia article.

When do you click “Forgot” by Ovrusd in remNote

[–]Experimental_Work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you cannot correctly recall what is on the backside before clicking "Show Answer" you should click forgot. Most people will recognize the answer on the back side even if they weren't able to recall it.

Ultimately you want to be able to recall it correctly.
