This unique learning system also enables the users to share their study notes and summaries with direct classmates and students across the world.

Over 150 million university students worldwide actively study books and articles everyday. The majority of these students face problems in comprehending and retaining information due to issues such as lack of concentration and ignorance about constructive learning skills.

Christiaan Henny, Founder of eFaqt said, “eFaqt is developed to enable students to learn at their most efficient level.

Independent professional research shows that over 80 percent of the students study their books more effectively because of eFaqt.”

Neurons, the human brain cells, make humans think and understand. Learning and remembering generates new neurons, which connect new and older information. eFaqt helps in processing the information more effectively by turning the textual information into questions and Mind-Maps. Asking a question activates neurons and triggers them be connected. eFaqt then reviews these questions at the right moments to strengthen the connections.

The use of the both the parts of human brain increases the speed of studying significantly. While studying students mostly use the left side of the brain, which stores linear information such as text. eFaqt activates the right part of our brain by turning the textual information into Mind-Maps. Mind-Mapping is a unique technique that transforms textual information into visual brain friendly images and separates the main points from the side issues.

Every learner has a different style of learning. eFaqt provides tests on learning styles and indicates whether a learner is auditive, visual, or kinaesthetic. The visual, auditive, kinaesthetic test defines what kind of information is best suited for each learner. Visual learners learn from pictures, graphs, books etc. Auditive learners adept best auditive information such as voices from your teacher or voice in a video. Kinaesthetic learners adapt to information they receive while practicing something or they learn it by observing. Based on the results of this test, eFaqt provides tips on effective mode of study.

Useful tools like Wikipedia, Google translator, and note pad are also integrated with eFaqt for the convenience of the students.  With eFaqt students can share the questions and ideas from the abstract of other students. Learners can make use of the content created by fellow learners by paying a small fee, which is partly, transfer to the creator of the content. This allows students to get paid while studying effectively.
