Early access: "Translating knowledge into spaced repetition prompts"
Added 2020-12-07 18:04:40 +0000 UTCI spent November working on a detailed guidebook and style manual for modeling knowledge and writing spaced repetition prompts. The guide will also be the first large public demonstration of Orbit: the text is interleaved with prompts mean to help readers internalize its content.
I'd like to give you early access: click here to read. (please don't share this with others yet)
This guide is meant to help bootstrap the next major phase of my work, which will revolve around working with authors. I'd like to experiment with Orbit across a variety of subjects and contexts, both to support memory and to experiment with some of the more exotic prompt types discussed in that guide and in my other writing (e.g. Timeful Texts).
To those who have participated in my prompt-writing workshops: thank you! Those discussions helped me improve both my understanding and the guide itself. If you read the guide before last Friday, you may want to flip back through to try the embedded prompts. Also, the final part (now titled "Prompt writing, in practice") has been mostly rewritten.
Comments, questions, bug reports are of course encouraged.
