About the NAWL:

The first version of the open-source New Academic Word List (NAWL 1.0), is a list of 963 words from an academic corpus of 288m words published by Dr. Charles Browne, Dr. Brent Culligan and J. Phillips and is available at the following link (www.newacademicwordlist.org) and is used in this app with permission. Dr Charles Browne is an owner of EFLTechnologies.com.

About Intelligent Flashcards:

The app also contains an Intelligent Wordlist Maker and Intelligent Flashcard system. The algorithm helps you to quickly and efficiently pick only the words you don’t know for study in the flashcard system. Rather than force you to go through the entire list at once, the system guides you through the list by frequency bands, allowing you to add words little by little, just as you need them or when you have time. Based on the well documented science of “spaced-repetition”, it systematically and efficiently helps you to review the words several times over a period of a month, giving you extra time with the words that are giving you difficulty.
