SUPERMEMO - SPEED LEARNING SOFTWARE (IBM-DOS & Windows) CAT.# 000-S01-00

     SuperMemo allows to greatly reduce time needed to memorize and retain
  knowledge in the learner's memory . In a long term perspective and for high
  levels of knowledge retention , the gain may be up to 50-fold !
  Sold in over 25 countries and winning many International Awards !

  This incredible figure can be reached by applying a unique algorithm for
  spacing repetitions . SuperMemo computes the longest possible
  inter-repetition intervals that result in a selected level of knowledge
  retention ; thus making the best use of the so-called spacing effect widely
  described in literature on Psychology and Neurophysiology .
  SuperMemo World is the exclusive owner of an intellectual property rights to
  the unique scheduling algorithm employed in computing the optimum spacing of
  repetitions .

     SuperMemo is a computer program which can be used to greatly increase the
  effectiveness of learning . It is based on breakthrough scientific research
  on MEMORY and LEARNING  . It allows to reach the maximum possible speed of
  learning for a given level of knowledge retention . SuperMemo can adapt the
  learning strategy to individual capabilities of the learner and to the
  difficulty of the learned material . It is an unparalleled tool in assisting
  the learner in mastering vocabulary of the foreign languages . It can also be
  used in learning sciences , Medicine and many other .

  SuperMemo will let you :
   * Learn with the speed that reaches the maximum capability of the brain to
     form new memories.
   * Remember the once memorized knowledge with minimum time spent on
     repetitions .
   * Master all kinds of knowledge representable as questions and answers in
     the text format .
   * Quickly and effectively memorize vocabulary and grammar of foreign
     languages (i.e. 3000 words in a month with the daily working time of 30
     minutes or vocabulary of an educated native speaker in 2 years with less
     than 2 hours working time a day .
