General knowledge
General knowledge is a wide stock of references across history, arts, science, geography and current affairs. Lumi helps you fix them in short sessions, but you also need to read and follow the news to feed it.
How to turn this subject into cards
Make one note per field or theme, with short benchmarks, a name, a date and an example. Lumi quizzes those elements and lets you build a bank of references like a notebook. The typical trap is trying to cover everything and remembering nothing. So choose a few themes and learn them well. Lumi fixes what you have decided to keep. Spreading sessions out helps you keep it over time (Cepeda et al., 2006).
