About FunnelBrain

 

FunnelBrain is a collection of academic questions and answers that are created, edited, organized and learned by the students, teachers and life learners who use it. The information is organized into Study Decks and Study Teams so each subject area can be the best resource for anyone that wants to learn the topic.

 

 


Collaborative Learning


Similar to Wikipedia, FunnelBrain is entirely user-driven. Anyone can contribute by creating, editing and organizing information in the form of question and answer flashcards and quizzes.  However, don't be fooled by the term, "Flashcards". Each Study Deck is a collection of information that can include all types of rich media such as photos, videos, audio voice recordings and math equations. Users work together to create information for a class, a shared interest or anything they want the world to know about.

Ready to learn? FunnelBrain has a unique learning system called The Funnel on every Study Deck page. Once you turn it on, FunnelBrain will automactially track and manage your study time with a spaced repetition algorithm that helps you to learn information faster and remember it longer.
