I finally got the star student badge (perfect lesson) and I was wondering why the recall part was so tough. I think some of the questions should have longer answer times.
The answer Son las nueve y cinquenta is very tough to type in tres literal seconds. Just a suggestion!

(Changed category) I agree. That part is a bit of Spanish review and a bit of typing skills. But they're both valuable. :-) - chaparrito, Jan 11, 2010

I agree with you. I'm a slow typer sometimes and it would be better if we were given more time to type phrases and such. Good suggestion.

Congratulations on getting the Start Student Badge! That is really a great accomplishment.

And, that being said, don't you really feel like you had to work really hard to get it? Would it be as meaningful if you could get a perfect score on all the lessons? If you had 20 seconds to type in the vocabulary word and still get full credit?

When we designed the Learn widget, we really wanted it to be challenging. Anyone can get a passing score, but we wanted it to be something really special to get that perfect score. Even I can't get a perfect score of some of the lessons! And it just makes me want to try again and really make sure I get all the points.

Again, congratulations and good luck on getting even more perfect scores!

Great job -- you can be happy with yourself.

I am on Lesson 4.9 and have never gotten a star student badge or have had a (perfect lesson).

That seemed almost impossible to me.I bet you play computer games to have that degree of excellence in hand-eye coordination.Congratulations!
