■ Systematic learning structure
This app is made up of comprehensive content in 17 chapters and 238 sections, from the basics of immunology to clinical applications. Each chapter is arranged in a logical flow, and is designed to build up knowledge step by step.
Chapter 1 begins with an overview and historical background of the immune system, and teaches basic concepts of immunology, such as the basic difference between innate and adaptive immunity, and the steps of immune response. Chapter 2 then goes into detail about innate immunity, from physical and chemical barriers to inflammatory responses, and the functions of neutrophils, macrophages, dendritic cells, and NK cells.
From Chapter 3 onwards, you will learn the core concepts of immunology, such as adaptive immunity, antibodies and immunoglobulins, major histocompatibility complexes (MHC), T cells, cytokines and chemokines, and the complement system. In addition, it also covers content that is directly related to clinical practice, such as inflammation and tissue repair, allergies and hypersensitivity, autoimmune diseases, immunodeficiencies, tumor immunology, transplantation immunology, vaccines and immunoprevention, clinical immunological tests, and infectious disease immunology.
■ Enriched visual learning
Visual understanding is essential to understanding the complex mechanisms of immunology. This app provides a wealth of animations and illustrations to help you understand each section.
For example, the animations show dynamic processes such as the process in which antigen-presenting cells present antigens to T cells, activation of B cells and antibody production, activation pathways of the complement cascade, and migration of white blood cells in inflammatory reactions. This allows you to intuitively grasp time-series changes and interactions between molecules and cells that are difficult to understand from static diagrams in textbooks.
In addition, the complex immune response network, the mechanism of action of cytokines, signal transduction pathways, etc. are organized and presented in easy-to-understand diagrams. Visual information is easy to remember and contributes to the long-term consolidation of knowledge.
■ Providing a comfortable learning environment
We have implemented a dark mode to provide an environment that is less tiring even for long periods of study. This is effective when studying in a dark environment or when you want to reduce eye fatigue. You can switch between light mode and dark mode with a single touch from the settings screen.
It also has a background music function that enhances concentration. You can choose from quiet ambient sounds to music that enhances concentration to suit your learning style. You can also finely adjust the volume, so you can study in silence.
In addition, the app has an offline function so that you can continue learning even in environments without an Internet connection. Once downloaded, the content can be used regardless of the network environment.
■ Scientific learning system
This app uses an effective learning method based on cognitive science. Of particular note is the implementation of the spaced repetition system.
This learning method is based on the theory of the forgetting curve, and by encouraging review at the optimal timing when memory is about to fade, it efficiently solidifies the long-term memory. It analyzes the correct answer rate for each question and the elapsed time since the last study, and automatically calculates the optimal review timing for each individual learner.
In addition, the automatic analysis function for weak areas visualizes the learner's weaknesses. It comprehensively analyzes data such as the correct answer rate, answer time, and review frequency for each section, and presents the areas that should be studied with priority. This makes it possible to plan an efficient study plan.
[Learning mode details]
■ All-range random mode
Questions are randomly asked from all 17 chapters. It is suitable for measuring overall ability or checking the degree of knowledge retention. There are 5 questions.
■ Chapter-based study mode
You can select a specific chapter and study it intensively. For example, if you select "Chapter 10: Allergies and Hypersensitivity," you can learn about allergies comprehensively, from the Gell & Coombs classification to anaphylactic shock and desensitization therapy.
■ Section-based study mode
You can study in even finer units. Select a specific topic from 238 sections and answer all the questions in that section one by one. This is effective when you want to overcome weak areas or deepen your understanding of a specific topic.
■ Focus on weak areas mode
Questions are focused on weak sections that are automatically extracted from your study history. Sections with a low correct answer rate or low study frequency are selected first.
■ Review mode for questions you got wrong
You can review only questions you got wrong intensively. Not only are questions re-asked, but detailed explanations are also available so that you can analyze why you got it wrong.
■ Scientific review mode (space repetition)
Questions are asked at the optimal time for memory consolidation. It automatically selects questions for which an appropriate period of time has passed since the last answer, helping you to efficiently solidify your knowledge.
[Question format and explanation]
Each question is multiple choice, with four options to choose the correct answer. The questions are concise and clear, and contain clinically important points.
After answering, a detailed explanation is displayed. It does not simply show the correct answer, but carefully explains why that option is correct and why the other options are incorrect. It also mentions related physiological mechanisms and clinical significance to promote deep understanding.
For particularly important concepts, it also provides visual explanations using animations and illustrations. For example, it explains complex phenomena such as the mechanism of antibody class switching and the process of positive and negative selection of T cells in an easy-to-understand manner.
[Management of learning progress]
■ Detailed learning history
All learning activities are recorded and can be reviewed at any time. You can check the study time, number of answers, correct answer rate, etc. by day, week, and month.
