Finding Your Way Around

The main Cerebware interface is shown below. It usually contains four windows:
  1. the picture window (Top left.)
  2. the history/document window (Top right.)
  3. the question window (Bottom left).
  4. the answer/entry window (Bottom right).

The picture window on the left will show a graphical representation of your progress when you first open your vocab file, and at the end of each session. It can also display pictures associated with vocab items. On the right, the history window shows a log of your activities during a learning session. Look here for feedback on errors. (The divider between the top two windows can be moved, or the picture window can be collapsed completely, so sometimes there will only be three windows.)


The Main Toolbar at the top of the Cerebware interface contains several menus and buttons, but only a few of these are relevant to beginners. (The important ones are discussed in the next section). The Testing Toolbar two thirds of the way down contains nine buttons that can be useful during a testing session. (These are discussed later). At the very bottom of the screen, the status bar indicates the number of words in the current vocabulary, how many of them have been seen, how many learned, and so on.
