  • Context cues simplify
    wording

    You can use categories
    in SuperMemo 2000/2002, provide different branches of knowledge
    with a different look (different template),
    use reference labels (Title, Author, Date, etc.) and
    clearly label subcategories (e.g. with strings such as chem for chemistry,
    math for mathematics, etc.). This will help you simplify the
    wording of your items as you will be relieved from the need to specify the context of
    your question. In the example below, the well-defined prefix bioch: saves you a lot of
    typing and a lot of reading while still making sure you do not confuse the abbreviation
    GRE with Graduate Record Examination. Note that in the recommended case, you process the
    item starting from the label bioch which puts your brain immediately in the right
    context. While processing the lesser optimum case, you will waste precious milliseconds on
    flashing the standard meaning of GRE and ... what is worse ... you will light up the wrong
    areas of your brain that will now perhaps be prone to interference!
