Card difficulty calibration
Calibration connects card wording, context, and intervals so hard items surface often and easy items do not waste time.
Card difficulty calibration means shaping prompts and context so review intervals reflect how hard an item is for you—not a generic default. Wording, hints, and example sentences all change how often a card should return.
In plain terms
Calibration is about honest prompts, not gaming the scheduler.
Why this matters
A Thai card that tests an isolated word without context may feel easy on day one and impossible in conversation. Calibration connects card design to real retrieval conditions so hard items surface often and easy items do not waste minutes.
How Cramblr handles this
Cramblr lets you edit fronts, backs, and supporting fields during review so calibration happens while material is still draft.
Approving only after you can answer aloud without hedging is a practical calibration test before cards enter long-term study.
