Repetition - if the user sees something many times he is more likely to remember it. In Wallearn it is implemented as course page cycling.Visibility - user must see the information as often as possible without disturbing him. Wallearn implements it by using desktop wallpaper and screen-saver for displaying course pages.Simplicity - information must be presented in simple form to support their absorption by the user. In Wallearn this is done by the course design.The real power of Wallearn lies in its courses - because we want to makecourses that interests users, we give them opportunity to influence the areasand topics of the courses by voting in our poll. The poll runs in two-week long cycles. At the end of the cycle, we'll take two highest scored areas and during next cycle make courses from that areas. Of course, the user is not dependent on our courses - he can make his own course.The courses are designed to provide broad preview of particular topic and have links pointing to the sources of more detailed information.
