Aaand the Leitner Box system is live! I'm applying it in the digital sphere, in Workflowy. Looking very positive so far as I've actually been reviewing my flashcards consistently, something I've been struggling with for the past year or so.

The manual aspect of this system is an important part of the process for me. Super cool bonus: Workflowy automatically emails my work to me, every day! Love how it's not trapped inside a proprietary app.

#Duolingo finally has spoken exercises for Korean.

Now if only it did any checking whatsoever.

I know I mangled a couple of those bc I auto-piloted to the wrong ending particle.

One time I only got half way through the exercise bc I was trying to be careful about that. It interrupted me, before I even finished.

And it was like: "Great job! :blobcatthumbsup:"

Like... No... no it wasn't. It wasn't even a finished job.
