aplicação da repetição espaçada de conteúdos utilizando algoritmo SM-2 em realidade virtual

Abstract

The forgetting curve, of the human brain, defines that information re- tained in the memory is discarded over time if not reviewed frequently. With the emergence of new technological resources, a wide range of learning processes have been developed, and among them, the immersive and innovative nature ofVirtual Reality applied along with the learning of contents in a simulated way, has made it possible to obtain positive results in the educational field, such as the decrease of the forgetting curve. This work aims to develop an application of spaced repetition with SM-2 algorithm for Virtual Reality, enabling students to review academic subjects in a virtual environment. This application intends to facilitate the fixation of the contents taught during the period of their acade- mic and professional training. The application was evaluated using the system usability scale method (SUS), with 10 statements on a Likert scale by 10 users. The results found a high level of approval for 55% of the participants, having an overall average by participants of 68.3 points in their evaluation.
