MemoryLifter for the iPhone and iPod-Touch
Portable computers and devices have become an essential part of our everyday life. We are used to retrieving information on the web, receiving emails, watching lectures, searching locations and networking within our virtual social network anytime and anywhere. At the same time, in today's fast paced world, many of us have a very tight schedule that requires mobility, flexibility and the readiness for lifelong learning.
These circumstances have made LearnLift think - AND create: Our brand new Learning Modules for mobile applications such as the iPhone™ or iPod touch®. They combine micro and mobile learning with the scientifically proven MemoryLifter flashcard technology featuring spaced repetition, multimedia learning, mnemonic strategies and various learning modes. This combination enables you to save a lot of time and to study efficiently whenever and wherever you are.
We often hear the old saying "time is money", but if we are precise, time is much more than money. Whereas we can save and spend both, we cannot stock and get back time. When time is gone, it is gone. When opportunities are missed, they are missed forever.
In this NewsLifter issue we would like to illustrate how the combination of micro and mobile learning with the MemoryLifter flashcard technology can help you optimize your time despite everyday obstacles, so you will never have to worry about stocking, getting back or loosing time again. Have fun and keep on learning :-). Follow this link to read the full story...
