MODIFICATION METHOD OF SPACED REPETITION SEQUENCE BASED ON USER’S ONLINE ACTIVITY 

Annotation

Subject of Research. The paper describes a foreign language learning process based on the spaced repetition approach and also considers encountered problems. Online services and other software products applying the given approach are reviewed; advantages and disadvantages are defined. Method. Evaluation of word priority in a user’s personal dictionary is initialized by activity data on the Internet. Two queues are stored on a per-user basis: the queue of words for repeating and the queue of words for learning. The words’ priority and the intervals between them in the repetition queue are evaluated by modified formula of SuperMemo method, where memorization factor can take only predefined values. Main Results. The modification method of spaced repetition sequence based on the user’s activity on the Internet is proposed. This method tends to suppress the shortcomings of modern online services for learning foreign languages and speed up educational process. At this, actual words for learning are detected automatically and already known ones are removed from training. One of the most significant features of the given method is the overcoming of isolation of modern online educational platforms. An application server and a browser extension have been developed on the basis of the presented method.  Practical Relevance. The proposed method can be used in the other areas where human activity is associated with the necessity to memorize a large number of new terms.
