Easy Vocab : The fun way to learn words!
We are happy to announce the launch of our first learning application on the Android platform – EASY VOCAB! This fun, educational and entertaining app has a host intelligent features such as categorizing words on the basis of user confidence, listing words for on-demand review, customizable quizzes and the ‘video wall’. You also get in-depth analysis of all the quizzes you attempt so that you can track your learning progress. The new way to master the English vocabulary
The Home Page consists of a total of SIX selectable tabs:
- Information Tab (denoted by the small red ‘i’ icon)
Each of these options is described in detail below.
In each of these tabs there is a MENU BAR present at the top which helps you navigate to some of the other tabs.
Menu Bar (from L to R- Flashcards, Word Search, Quiz, Progress)
MENU BAR is present at the top of your screen when any of the tabs are selected (except INFORMATION & VIDEO WALL). This bar provides easy navigation back to any of the other tabs, which are denoted by their respective icons. The MENU BAR is much like the easy navigation tab throughout the application.
The INFORMATION tab provides you with the actions to share, rate or provide feedback about EasyVocab. You can know more about this product or Last-Bench! in ‘About Us’ and learn how to use the application using the ‘Help’ feature.
The Flashcard tab forms the basis of EasyVocab. Here you can browse and learn new words by first seeing the word displayed on the card in the center of your screen and tapping anywhere on the card to reveal the word’s meaning and usage.
You can then select one of three options below the card. These buttons help you set the ‘Confidence Level’:
Red Button: Select this option if you are not confident about the meaning or usage of this word. We’ll help you master this word by increasing the times it appears during a learning session.
Yellow Button: This is the default intermediate level. Select this option if you are moderately confident about the meaning and usage of the word. We will reduce the frequency of this word to help you focus on tougher words you have yet to master.
Green Button: Select this option if you think you have mastered the meaning and usage of this word. But, BEWARE! We’ll test you randomly to see if you’re telling the truth!
The Easy Vocab application uses your entry and accordingly shuffles the Flashcard deck to help you master words in the fastest and most comprehensive way possible. You really need to see to believe this feature!
The ‘next’ and ‘previous’ buttons help you navigate through the flashcards. Hitting the ‘speaker’ icon will help you listen to how the word is pronounced.
The small star on the top right of the screen (below the MENU BAR) helps you set the word for review. This allows you to bookmark the word for viewing and learning at a later time. When you hit the hollow star it will become solid, indicating the word has been set for review. All the words set for review are listed and can be accessed in the ‘Review Words’ option under the WORD SEARCH tab.
This tab allows you search for a specific word from the plethora of words in EASYVOCAB. There are three options within this tab:
Word Search: This is the default option on entering the tab. You can type a word of your choice and then click on it to view its meaning and usage.
Filter by confidence: This option allows you to select the words based on the confidence level assigned to the word in the FLASHCARD tab. By default all words not assigned a confidence level will be assigned the intermediate level (yellow button).
Review words: This option contains all the words you had set for review in FLASHCARDS tab.
This tab helps you test you skills and mastery of words you have learned previously. You can create your own customized quiz by setting the number of questions you wish to attempt in the quiz, the total duration of the quiz and the words you wish to include in your quiz based on the confidence level. So get ready to test yourself!
