Feature request: Spaced Repetition for Learning Reinforcement
Problem
When learning new programming concepts, information is initially stored in short-term memory. However, it requires repeated exposure (reinforcement) to become deeply ingrained and easily recalled. While the Discord community provides opportunities for reinforcement through teaching others, we need a more systematic approach to ensure long-term retention of key concepts.
Solution
Implement a spaced repetition system within Boot.dev to reinforce learnings from past quests. Similar to how our wandering character would rest to tell tales form conquests past and hopefully gain new insights upon reflection. This system would:
Generate review prompts based on previously completed content
Integrate these prompts into the user's learning journey at optimal intervals
Adapt the frequency and difficulty of reviews based on user performance
Key Features
AI-Generated Question/Answer Pairs: Create dynamic review content based on completed lessons and quests
Progress Tracking: Award XP for completed reviews (regardless of correctness) to incentivize participation and non-gaming of the analytics
Seamless Integration: Incorporate review prompts naturally within the course flow
Customization: Allow users to add their own review items or flag content for future review
Implementation Details
Spaced Repetition Algorithm: Implement a variation of the SuperMemo 2 or FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler) algorithm to determine review intervals
Content Generation: Use AI to analyze completed lessons and generate relevant review questions
User Interface: Design an intuitive interface for presenting reviews and collecting user feedback
Backend Integration: Store user review history and performance metrics to inform the scheduling algorithm
