And this is a natural process of our brain, working as a defense mechanism when selecting important and disposable information.<\/p>\n<p>Have you ever wondered what it would be like if we remembered everything all the time? I think I would go crazy.<\/p>\n<p>When receiving an avalanche of information, our mind is forced to select which information will be memorized and which will be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>Subconsciously, the brain uses various criteria to select and organize the information that will be stored for future memories.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the best known criteria are the remarkable facts of our lives and everything that we find interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Even with its selection criteria, some even adequate, the brain is not very good at selecting what is important and what should be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>Another aggravating factor is that this process occurs\u00a0<em>subconsciously<\/em>\u00a0and not consciously.<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Repeating and revising so as not to forget<\/h3>\n<p>When we study a subject at school or elsewhere and don&#039;t revise it, we tend to forget most of what we learn.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, at the time of a review, we recall the subject studied and the subject becomes more vivid in memory.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the more we use new information, the longer it will stay in memory and not be forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>This is the key point of the Spaced Repetition System (SRS). This technique uses periodic reviews to force the brain to classify the reviewed information as important, storing it in memory so that it does not forget even after a long period of time without using that information.<\/p>\n<h3>How to know the right time range to review?<\/h3>\n<p>Many scholars in learning techniques, teachers and psychologists have different conclusions on the subject.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the general consensus is to start reviewing the material studied at short intervals and increase the time interval to longer intervals between one review and another.<\/p>\n<h3>Does SRS (Spaced Repetition System) only work with FlashCards?<\/h3>\n<p>Many people confuse SRS with FlashCards, but one thing can work perfectly without the other. The basis of everything is to create questions that remember the main concepts of what we learned.<\/p>\n<p>As one of the most common ways of doing this is using FlashCards, the SRS \u2013 Spaced Repetition System has become almost synonymous with FlashCards.<\/p>\n<h2>Why use an SRS to learn Japanese?<\/h2>\n<p>The process of learning a new language, be it Japanese or not, demands a lot from our memory. The process of\u00a0<a title=\"How to learn Japanese (study tips)\" href=\"https:\/\/comoaprenderjapones.net\/en\/japanese\/\">learn japanese<\/a>\u00a0it is almost to memorize new words and grammatical structures.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, using the Spaced Repetition System (SRS) technique can be a way to considerably improve vocabulary retention and\u00a0<a title=\"Japanese grammar\" href=\"https:\/\/comoaprenderjapones.net\/en\/japanese-grammar\/\">japanese grammar<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, there are other advantages of using an SRS to learn Japanese that are worth mentioning:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To use an SNS it is necessary to summarize the content studied in simple questions and answers, focusing on what must be memorized and eliminating unnecessary information.<\/li>\n<li>Using SRS provides an easy way to practice proofreading, since you don&#039;t have to keep rereading book chapters or old articles.<\/li>\n<li>The Spaced Repetition System (SRS) shortens review time by focusing on what really matters.<\/li>\n<li>SRS considerably increases information retention and acquisition of a good\u00a0<a title=\"japanese vocabulary\" href=\"https:\/\/comoaprenderjapones.net\/en\/japanese-vocabulary\/\">japanese vocabulary<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>The Disadvantages of Using an SRS to Learn Japanese<\/h2>\n<p>Like any learning technique, the Spaced Repetition System (SRS) also has its drawbacks.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Because it is not very practical to manage the time slots for review manually, the use of SRS is done more in computer programs, creating a dependency on the PC.<\/li>\n<li>Contrary to what you might think, creating questions and answers (or FlashCards) is a process that demands a lot of effort and can become tiring.<\/li>\n<li>The SRS is a review system, not a learning one. Therefore, it is not suitable for new information, but for subjects that have already been studied in advance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Where to find SRS programs?<\/h2>\n<p>If you are curious and want to use some SRS program to learn Japanese, I recommend taking a look at the programs below.
