Original Text
I used to study by rereading notes, and then I blanked in the exam hall.
Did some research, and found that my experience isn’t isolated, and that passive review doesn’t force retrieval, so nothing sticks, and I knew I had to do something about it.
That’s why I built Professor Goose. You pick a topic, explain it out loud to a goose, and he keeps probing until he understands you. Never gives you the answer, just keeps asking follow ups until a sound understanding is reached, which in turn makes you figure stuff out or realise you never understood your topic in the first place.
