The idea behind the app
Doomlearning breaks a full course into cards short enough to read in a spare minute.
The textbook date is 4 September 476, when a Germanic officer called Odoacer removed the teenage emperor Romulus Augustulus. Not one contemporary writer describes it as the end of anything.
Odoacer did not take the throne. He packed the imperial regalia into a crate and shipped it to Constantinople.
One idea per card, so there’s never much to get through.
Courses run to 50, 125 or 200 cards, at the level you choose.
There’s a quiz every 10 cards, so it isn’t just reading.
You choose the topic, the level and how long the course runs. Doomlearning plans the whole curriculum first and then writes the cards, so each one can build on the one before.
The first chapter of every course is free. You can also read a free chapter on this site first, or see how it works.
