What is the peak time for? Your student cannot remember, want them to ask for help, they can hit "peak" to take another look if they cannot remember. You can determine the length of the peak time if desired. The app counts the amounts of peaks they took so you can monitor and see if the number reduces with practice.
You will notice that there is a percentage that is kept throughout. Just note, that if you exit out, you cannot retrieve that percentage. The % is just a score, it does not tell you how many trials and how many specifically were correct or incorrect. I hope in an upgrade you can store the scores in the app for progress monitoring.
You got to work on categorization and can discuss how the pictures fall in that category. Can also discuss what pictures could have also been included. You also get to work on building memory and strategies such as asking for help, visualization, repeating in head, etc.
This I disliked about this app:
I wish you could input students and record how they perform over time. I wish you could keep going in one category instead of constantly switching. There is no way to see how many items you have done and more to go, you just keep going until you decide you have had enough. I definitely hope they consider these features in the future. This app is a little pricey, $4.99 compared to other apps.
