Geology
In geology you remember the layers of the Earth, rock types, processes and big dates. Lumi has you recall them so you can rebuild the story of the Earth without notes.
How to turn this subject into cards
Geology sticks well as cycles and sequences. Make one card set for the rock cycle, one for the layers of the Earth, one for the types of plate boundary with their associated events, one for the geological time scale. The trap is learning lists of rock names without how they form. For each rock, remember where it comes from. Lumi quizzes you on the order, the process and the example, and lets you correct its deliberate mistakes. Knowledge comes back better when you test it at widening intervals (Kang, 2016). It helps you remember vocabulary, processes and dates.
