Hi!
I'm pleased to announce a new version of KVocLearn. It's a KDE based tool
for learning language vocabularies and/or question-answer cards (see below
for a more detailed description).
Current changes include:
- - new options concerning learn-all mode including:
- question domain can be selected randomly and can change
during learning
- learning under time stress: if a question is not answered
within a certain timeout then its knowledge grade is reset
(same effect as applying the I-was-wrong-button)
- - refined learning algorithm
- - improved keyboard handling during learning
- - KVocLearn now uses XML (needs libxml/gnome-xml)
- - improved navigation through lessons and words
You can have a look at KVocLearn and download it from:

Description:
KVocLearn was primarily designed to be a tool for learning vocabularies of
foreign languages. It maintains a set of words (with translations) that are
filed in different lessons. These words can be learned by means of queries.
These queries can be lesson-specific queries or can be over-all queries. An
over-all query involves all words using a special algorithm - the words
that are less known are asked more often than others. Thus the user has the
chance to improve himself from query to query considering previous learning
sessions. Both directions of queries are possible.
Since KVocLearn uses multiline editors for words it can be used to learn
other things than vocabularies (e.g. you can have a set of question-answer
cards with multiple lines in both the question and the answer).
It also allows you to have different charset for different languages.
Best regards
Dejan
