Can you guys put together a list of the analytics you'd like to see (in order of importance would be great)? It's absolutely possible for us to get these in soon enough for you guys to get value out of them, but it would be helpful if you could give me a better idea of exactly what you'd like to see.
-Average time/Question (Under the Pause section or at the end of the task?, perhaps this could twofold, 1. Per session 2. Average all time)
-Total time it took to complete Task (Cool metric to see and understand what our FC time commitment is)
-#Total Cards Answered (Kind of for funsies)
-#of times Card Answered (shows up after answering it)- If I keep rating a card 1-2, and have done so 10 times, then I'm wasting my time seeing the card in an isolated context, I likely need to spend some time reviewing the whole topic, and this would be a great indication for that, as well as boost up the efficiency of the program.
-Rating of Card Last time it was answered + Days since last answer - Would be really cool, it helps us to understand whether something truly is apart of our long-term memory or not (Lets say I rated a Card a 3-4, saw it again one month later, and was able to recall it perfectly, then it really does deserve a "4-5", versus a card that had a "4-5" rating previously, say 3 weeks ago, but was not recalled perfectly. It'll make the rating process a bit more structured.
Another really important suggestion (IMO): Could we please switch Multiple Choice question answering to the "1,2,3,4,5" system without Shift, or make "a,b,c,d,e" a single hotkey(1,2,3,4,5 is better, less keyboard movement), this could really up the time efficiency, it really slows us (me?) down when these questions come up, just the mechanical aspect of it slows rapid answering.
Thanks as always! I know these can sound like little things, but with how much new material we have to learn per day, completing our daily firecracker tasks with as much efficiency as possible (in terms of time) is crucial. Sometimes, I simply ignore FC (especially days before a test) because I don't have 3 hours to spend looking at old material, but ideally, I'd like to not skip any days, and shortening the time helps me to balance that. Also, metrics help us to analyze and improve our experience and add on to the efficiency.
