HOW DOES IT WORK?
STEP 1 - CREATE A DECK!
Create a deck for any topic you're learning. Keep things broad or get specific—it's your space.
STEP 2 - ADD FLASHCARDS!
Each flashcard has a question on one side and an answer on the other. Add one idea per card to make learning easier.
STEP 3 - REVIEW & REPEAT!
Review in short, focused sessions. Mark each card as Got it right or Got it wrong—NerDeck's spaced repetition system takes care of the rest.
A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
In the late 1800s, German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus experimented on himself to understand how memory works.
He discovered the Forgetting Curve: we forget information quickly at first, then more slowly over time.
Reviewing material just before you forget it dramatically strengthens memory. That insight became the foundation of spaced repetition.
