Moon-Jumper

Moon-Jumper is my cognitive improvement site. I consists of three components:

• Moon-Jumper Quiz
• Moon-Jumper Journal
• Moon-Jumper Dual N-Back

Development on this project has been on hold for quite some time, but I would like to get it moving again. The first step would be to re-deploy much of it using GhostMVC.

The next step is to build the quiz from scratch (again) this time incorporating the concept of 'done' and of spaced repetition. http://www.wired.com/medtech/health/magazine/16-05/ff_wozniak?currentPage=all http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaced_repetition

I think for the quiz, it should have two modes, memorize and test. Memorize is the current mode and it runs until the average is above 70% (this number needs to be experimentally derived). Then it goes into test mode where every question has to be answered correctly 2 times in a row. When it is answered correctly 3 times in a row it is removed from the deck, but the deck cannot drop below 10 questions (this means the last 10 cards left should be the hardest and in most need of review).

Dev Back-Log

Primary Log

• First Response tracking (this will be needed for custom spaced repetition)
• New Quiz
• Add 1 question to quiz
• Bulk quiz add
• View quiz for edit/add
• Edit question in quiz
• Relinquish quiz
• Curriculum Tables (1 curriculum table, 1 update to quiz table)
• Add Curriculum
• Add quiz to curriculum
• Daily Training mode
  • If card backlog is not too big and quiz backlog is not 0 and last memorization > 5days ago, do memorization, else, do training.
  • If memorization, load quiz off backlog and set tier
  • If training, set timer
• Add reminder to homepage to register or respond to registration
• Create the homepage "Make Me Smart" button
• Add homepage reminder to add quizzes and curriculum to quiz backlog
• Create a journal multi-add page that shows you the last entry and provides entries for up to the last 3 days.

Consider changing the names of the 3 apps to reflect how they help the brain. 'Journal' => 'Tracking', 'Quiz' => 'Memorize' and 'Dual N-Back' => 'Fluid Intelligence'.

Secondary Log

Someday

• Add lots of curriculums
