Here you’ll learn more about the theories behind Test Enhanced Learning, an educational method for more efficient learning. We at Cortexio use this theory as the basis in our pedagogical approach in building the system. Feel free to provide feedback, or suggestions for changes and improvements!

To use Cortexio Test Enhanced Learning :
Cortexio takes advantage of the latest pedagogical research to improve learning and thus improve the education for our students. This is done by reinforcing the first step of learning: to take in information, but also by making the material interactive with text, pictures and films. Whereupon, higher learning is made possible by allowing students to obtain satisfactory knowledge through questions linked to each text. The results of the questions is shown in the text in order to get an overview of what you know and what you need to study more.
One of the problems with traditional learning materials is that it is difficult to identify your knowledge gaps if you’re not tasked with answering questions. Most people know that there is a lot they do not know, but it is difficult to identify what you don’t know that you should know. It is also difficult to identify what you have forgotten or probably will forget. Cortexio helps you by giving you statistics of what you have studied and when – and what you haven’t studied.
Cortexio offers you the opportunity to focus on the knowledge gaps!
