This is a basic problem but bother me for a long time , I still use Supermemo 2.5(2003). Evertime I reinstall my ppc, all learning data will lost, I must ...
I don't know any easy way to do this. If I really needed to do it, I would export the database as XML, then write a program or script to randomize the items in...
Can you connect you Pocket PC device to your computer? If so, you can copy the Supermemo files from the Pocket PC to your computer. Then reverse the process to...
When a body of knowledge is broken down into question-answer pairs, original hierarchy/structure is "flattened out" into distinct items. Has the author...
If you use incremental reading, you still can see the forest one or more items up in the hierarchy, when needed. If you use it for Q&A's, well - Supermemo is...
something to add... this confirms my previous doubt that, NO, you cannot expect to just learn a collection built by someone else, or study that mindmap someone...
Thanks for answering, Tom! I rummaged through all the articles and found that Dr Wozniak HAS addressed this issue! It's here.. Knowledge structuring and...
When I use alt+A to create an item and use alt-Z to create a cloze from it, the cloze question item appears as the child of the original item. But in the...
... Well said. Except for knowledge with uniform structure: say Japanese hiragana, katakana, or collection based on certain book if the users will learn from...
Supermemo isn't the end-all magic bullet, but another tool (albeit a useful one) in the learning process. When building a structure, nails and screws both...
... items. ... of ... Dan, Obviously simple Q>A is one way to represent things in SM, but you could, of course, even add a complete mind map as an image and...
I have created notes within MS Word that include images and text. I want to import the entire contents of the file into SM, but when I add it to my reading...
I would agree that it would improve your retention rate, but it may also slow SM down quite a bit depending on the size of the images. I am not an expert in...
I am using SM to study through a statistics (hardcopy) book, and have found that for most items it is beneficial to use an image rather than simple text. Right...
thanks Mark, using occlusion test on mindmap seems a feasable way to retain overall structure. I was thinking maybe SM should have more build-in data...
thanks, baka_sakana i like the analogy that SM is a too-l like nails & screws used to hold together & stabilize the structure which you have already built.. ...
I am reading the article "Knowledge structuring and representation in learning based on active recall" (http://supermemo.com/english/ol/ks.htm), which is taken...
When I try to sync my SM2006 and SM on PPC by using Import-> Learning Process-> XML in the update log it shows this warning message for many items: "WARNING!...
Hi guys! Let's say I have 2 items, repeated once, both with Pass-score; now, when i'm repeating them for the second time and I'm getting the same "Pass" for...
hi John: i sometimes study on the computer by first scanning in the book, getting it OCRed in Adobe Acrobat. You can do highlighting, annotation in Acrobat,...
I think losing an image is often because that you only imported a link/reference to an image (eg. URL). If you want a hard copy of the pasted image on your...
Hi people I'm using SM2004 to learn Polish. I've got enough programmed to have daily repetitions of between 50-100 items. A question I've been meaning to ask...
Hy guys!I'm studying now from some pdf files. I want to use snapshots from these pdf-s(because I cannot select the text) as questions and also as answers. I've...
Why not convert your pdf files to searchable first. There are many ways to do this. ABBYY has a program called pdf transformer that is probably the slickest...
Those applications would work if the text can be selected in the pdf file. The pdf-s I'm using have been scanned from some books, so each page represents an...
If each PDF represent a picture, why in the world you scanned to a PDF format, and not a Image format, or know that you have the PDF files you just convert...
In windows use shift-Print_Screen, and paste the image into a image editor, crop, and drop into SM. I have done this often. Cheers, Jesse [Non-text portions...
