WHY THIS ARONSON STACK APP?Ive been searching for the perfect Aronson Stack trainer for a long time, something that was engaging, made me want to learn, and something that actually worked. So, after wasting time and money on other apps I decided to make my own, built with everything I wanted that the other apps simply did not provide.FUN AND ADDICTINGThe Ultimate Aronson Trainer is not actually a trainer it is a game. I realized I liked playing games like Candy Crush and Dots, and if I could make learning the Aronson Stack as addicting as these games I would be more likely to stick with it.You start out on Level 1 which presents you with a card, 4 possible answers as to what number in the stack the card is, 3 lives, and 30 seconds. Each time you match the card with the correct number you get a point. (As you go on to different levels the questions change format... read below)7 Points to move to the next level and you get 1 star10 Points is 2 stars12 Points is 3 starsLEARNING IN CHUNKSThe game is broken up into 7 stages with 8 levels each:Stage 1: Cards 1- 13Stage 2: Cards 14-26Stage 3: Cards 1- 26Stage 4: Cards 27-39Stage 5: Cards 39- 52Stage 6: Cards 27-52Stage 6: Cards 1-52This is because breaking the Aronson Stack into bite sized chunks will maximize your ability to learn it quickly and retain the knowledge.MIX UP LEARNING METHODSEach stage has 8 levels, each with a different way to learn the stack. When you mix up how to learn this accomplishes two things1. It keeps you interested2. It prepares you for real world situationsLEVELS 1, 2, AND 3: THE BASICSThese are the basic what card is what number and what number is what card multiple choice questions. If you get an answer wrong it will show you what the right answer is. Using this method, if you have never looked at the Aronson Stack before, you will be able to memorize each set in about 15-20 minutes. These levels are perfect for learning the basics.LEVELS 4, 5, AND 6: WHAT COMES BEFORE AND WHAT COMES AFTEROther trainers give you the option to choose what number is what card and what card is what number In real world scenarios you need to know what comes after and what comes before a card on the bottom or the top of the deck. So three levels are dedicated to just having you answer what comes next or what comes before. These levels are perfect for cementing the basics and improving speed.LEVEL 7: NO MORE MULTIPLE CHOICEAt this point our minds start to get used to multiple choice. In the real world there we do not get 4 options to choose from, we have to KNOW what number the card is. On this level you there is no multiple choice, you type in the number the card shown is.LEVEL 8: PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHERLevel 8 mixes all of the techniques together to test your mastery of the stage. MASTER THE ARONSON STACKIf you get 3 stars on every level, I guarantee that you will have mastered the Aronson Stack to the point where you dont even have to think what number is this card or what is after the 3 of hearts when you are performing in the real world. You will just knowPlease rate the app and post any feedback to our website!
