It is very similar to the same curriculum I was planning to do X years ago, but I think this time I might actually get somewhere on it. Here's the idea: have a web application that lets you browse through some lessons, which consist of two types of items: 1) Explanations/lectures/lessons and 2) Flash cards. The lessons can just be Lojban for Beginners, and I'm in the processing of writing flash cards to go along with the lessons. You'll be able to read the lessons in any order, and add the flash cards to the review process with a click of a button. They'll be scheduled for review in a Supermemo-type way. (In fact, I expect I'll use the Supermemo dll to schedule repetitions.) The user comes back and logs in again every day (ideally) to review the stuff that's scheduled. Some flash cards will be simple memory items, and others will be exercises with answers. Between the lessons and flash cards, I think a person should be able to learn Lojban enough to converse without ever leaving the application. And all in a single web site. Has anyone done anything like this, or have any other input, lest I waste much effort? (Also, suggestions?) Chris Capel -- "What is it like to be a bat? What is it like to bat a bee?
