Use this file when you want to create the same spaced repetition review format for future days.
Copy this prompt and replace the bracketed parts:
Create a spaced repetition review Markdown file for [DAY NUMBER] based on [TOPIC / NOTEBOOK / LESSON CONTENT].
Use the same format as my existing review files:
- Add a Review Schedule near the top.
- Add a Scoring Guide using 0 = forgot, 1 = partial, 2 = correct with effort, 3 = easy.
- Add a short Summary in my own learning style.
- Add Core Concepts with concept, why it matters, and example.
- Add a Confidence Checklist with measurable confidence.
- Add one Question To Evaluate Learning with a hidden answer toggle.
- Add Brain Test Questions split into:
- Recall Questions for facts and definitions.
- Explain Questions for why/how understanding.
- Apply With Code for small Python prediction or writing tasks.
- Put every answer inside a Markdown <details><summary>Answer</summary> toggle.
- Under every scored question, add:
Score: 0/1/2/3
Last reviewed: YYYY-MM-DD
Next review: YYYY-MM-DD
Mistake note:
- Add an Error Log table.
- Add an Interleaving From Older Days section with 3-5 questions from previous days.
- Keep Markdown only. Do not use an external spaced repetition app.
- Use this default review interval: same day, next day, 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 30 days.
Make the questions practical for testing real understanding, not only memorizing definitions.
