Bonjour! Merci pour votre preject, puisque moi, je le trouve génial. Mais pour l'avenir avez-vous l'intention de lancer une application pour l'iPhone ou, peut-être, la version mobile de votre page? Je voudrais faire mes exercices (tests) même lorsque je suis en voyage et, malheuresement, la version courante n'est pas bien adaptée.
After several months of behind-the-scenes artificial brain surgery, KwizBot today gets a new brain to help you improve your French even faster than before. What’s changed?
Reading and Writing tested separately
He will no longer kwiz you on both reading and writing skills for the same topic within the same kwiz, but will instead decide which skill is best for you work on at any time. This also fixes an issue where kwizzers would sometimes see a reading question that gave away the answer to a writing question in the same kwiz, or vice versa. He’s also now smarter about when to repeat questions for you, to ensure that you really nail that knowledge, and you will see fewer questions repeated when repetition is not necessary. He’s also better at introducing new topics to keep things interesting and varied.
Notebook tests are much shorter
KwizBot was getting a leeeetle carried away with notebook tests, testing you on everything at once. His new algorithms are much cleverer, picking the most relevant questions for the topics you’ve bookmarked in your notebook, and he limits notebook kwizzes to ten questions to ensure you don’t get overwhelmed.
Faster kwiz generation for power testers
A small number of our power testers* were experiencing long delays while KwizBot was trying to design the best French test for them based on their test history. His new supercharged brain is several hundred times faster than before at making these decisions for you.
*People who’ve taken many thousands of kwizzes.
So what are you waiting for? Put KwizBot’s new brain to the test right now – go to your StudyPlan

[Follow on Twitter: @gruffdavies] Despite the very Welsh name, Gruff is actually half French. Nowadays, he's a tech entrepreneur (and some-time novelist) but he used to be a physicist at Imperial College before getting hooked on inventing things. He has a special interest in language learning, speaks five languages to varying degrees of fluency and he often blogs about language learning, science, and technology. As well as co-founding Kwiziq, he is the author the Amazon best-selling SF thriller, The Looking Glass Club and the inventor of the Exertris gaming exercise-bike and Pidgin, a free online tool that makes drawing flow charts and relationship diagrams as quick and easy as describing them in pidgin English.

Bonjour Yuri,
Merci pour votre commentaire. Nous sommes en train d'améliorer la version mobile du site, elle sera prête d'ici quelques semaines.
I'm so pleased the notebook now gives shorter tests. It was a bit overwhelming before! I'd love two Notebooks, one for really tricky grammar and one for the stage I'm working on. That said, I love Lawless French anyway. Merci!
Bonjour Jenny,
Thanks for your feedback! We're glad to know you're pleased with the changes, and we're looking into the possibility of multiple notebooks, so stay tuned! :-)
