According to methods for teaching high performance cognitive skills, a simulated sports action scenario is displayed on a screen to a user, and the user is queried to respond to the scenario. The user's response to the scenario is received. The user's response to the scenario is evaluated according to predetermine high performance cognitive skills criteria to determine a sports relevant score. The determined sports relevant score is then displayed to the user and a database is updated. A graphical user interface is provided to enable the foregoing.

A system that providing an interactive means for one or more team members to learn about and better-react to opponents in upcoming games is provided. The system operates by repeatedly running drill sessions having a dynamic difficulty, where the difficulty is automatically set, based on the success of the player performing the drill session, and other characteristic about the player.

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for mitigating the effects of intermittent network connectivity in educational settings. A student assignment is presented via a client-side user interface of an educational platform. The client-side user interface is initially operated in a read/write mode. Student input is received via the client-side user interface in connection with the student assignment, and is responsively locally stored. A remote-save-triggering event is detected, and a remote-save method is responsively executed. The remote-save method attempts to save the locally stored student input to a remote server. If the remote-save method returns a remote-save-success promise, the client-side user interface is continued to be operated in the read/write mode. If the remote-save method returns a remote-save-failure promise, the client-side user interface is transitioned to being operated in a read-only mode.

An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the disclosure includes: a dictionary storage that stores headwords and dictionary contents associated with information corresponding to the headwords; an input device that inputs a character string in accordance with an input operation; and a processor that makes a question for learning the character string, based on a character string entered to the input device as a search target for a headword of the dictionary contents and an input operation of entering the character string to the input device.

A method for generating a set of concepts related to a target concept includes accessing a set of candidate concepts, embedding the target concept and the set of candidate concepts in a semantic vector space, selecting one or more intermediate concepts from the set of candidate concepts in response to determining whether each embedded candidate concept in the set of embedded candidate concepts satisfies a predetermined relationship with the embedded target concept, and filtering the one or more intermediate concepts to yield the set of concepts related to the target concept. The method may further include generating a multiple-choice question in which the target concept corresponds to a correct answer choice and the set of concepts related to the target concept correspond to distractors.
