Yes, it’s a good program for Palm and Pocket PCs. I registered it years ago. Nice program.

1. Leitner cardbox
2. Subset testing (pick groups of cards to focus on and then move on to the next group)
3. Timed testing (cycle through cards quickly to ensure you are not dwelling on cards)
4. Hidden-answer testing (great for conjugating verbs into various tenses)
5. Unfamiliar testing (only test on those cards which are scoring below a user-defined cutoff)
6. Category testing (further subselect cards for focused learning)

Feel free to visit the HandyMed site for more information.

Hands down improves learning out of sight.
Thinking of learning faster/studying more efficiently more generally, it seems to me that we should think about ‘study software’ as a group, within which lies a number of subgroups including Flashcard software (e.g. Supermemo, Mapping software (e.g. Mindmanager) and Data gathering software (e.g. One-Note) and not to forget, hybrids of the above (e.g. RecallPlus).

Mapping software is popular for learning and is proven to improve learning above and beyond what ‘normal notetaking achieves. This is apparently because of 2 things.
1. Visual memory is strongly supported
2. The process of organising data improves learning markedly and that is what the mapping software does.
So if your info doesn’t neatly fall into Q-A format or variations, suggest try a mapping or hybrid program.
