Gamifying revision is easy to get wrong. Reward the wrong thing and you train students to farm points instead of learning. Reward nothing and the motivation curve flatlines by week three.
Revisionary's XP system is tuned around the habits we actually want to build: consistent daily sessions, returning to weak cards, and finishing full papers rather than bouncing between topics.
What earns XP
- Completing a flashcard session and rating your recall honestly.
- Finishing a quiz, especially one that covers your weakest topics.
- Completing Pomodoro sessions and keeping a daily streak alive.
- Submitting a written answer for marking and reviewing the feedback.
Badges unlock for milestones — first full paper, first perfect deck, first seven-day streak. Nothing you need to chase, everything you'll be glad you earned.
