Web-based Language Learning That's Easy, Fast, and Effective!
Byki is a powerful language-learning system that uses flashcards to teach your patrons a set of words or phrases. It
is the fastest possible way to lock foreign words and phrases into their long-term memory.
As patrons learn a language, they will be exposed to hundreds, if not thousands, of new words. Learning and
remembering them all may be a challenge, but it needn't be boring or difficult. Not with Byki Online: Library
Edition, intended to provide a fun, engaging, and effective environment for language learning. Byki Online: Library
Edition has been specifically designed to help patrons quickly and efficiently build a solid base of words and phrases,
the basic building blocks of a language.
The Flash Card exercises available in Byki Online: Library Edition help patrons master the information in
their lists quickly and easily. The Flash Card exercises contain various learning modes; however, not all learning
modes may be available for all lists. The most common learning modes are:
Review It - Look through the list without guessing answers or being scored.
Recognize It - Use this exercise as an easy way to start off with a list or as a quick way to review a list that has
been studied. Learn to identify the information on the cards by thinking of the information from side one.
Know It - Use this exercise to expand comprehension of the material in the list. Test knowledge by typing
the information from side one of the card.
Produce It - Use this exercise after learning to recognize the information in the list and when ready to
produce it, or as a quick way to review a list that was practiced before. Think of the information for side
two of the card while seeing the information on side one.
Own It - Use this exercise after having studied a list for a while and to reinforce knowledge of it. Master
the material in the list by typing the information from side two of the cards.
Byki Online includes the Intelligent
Refresh system, which enables users to lock
foreign language words and phrases into their
permanent memory. Intelligent Refresh relies
on a special proprietary algorithm that
remembers the words and phrases the user has
already learned and how quickly they were
learned, and spaces the prompts to recall them
at just the right intervals to maintain a fun
and comfortable level of challenge. Byki
Online is the only language learning solution
expressly designed to refresh and maintain the
learner's permanent memory.
Supplemental activities are available on the Activities screen in Byki Online: Library Edition. These are also
designed to help patrons master the material in their lists. The available activities are:
