Where have the daily streaks gone?

[mwood]

I was using these as an effective incentive for students and now they seem to have disappeared

Maybe this would go better in the teachers’ corner?

I don’t mind where it goes - I’d just like a response from Memrise please. Are there any plans to bring back awards for streaks?

There do seem to be plans. We’ll only know what those plans are and whether they get acted upon after we see any result.

Ziggy is now live!

We hear you and we are taking in all your feedback. There are fair points that we are planning to act upon - from adding more ranks and making the progress more motivating for long time learners, as well as rethinking personal bests (namely, streaks) and how to visualise them better.

The way in which we tested very different progress visualisation concepts, ranks, icons and characters will be a case study we are planning to share - there was a lot of user testing and feedback involved, from new and existing learners with often unexpected results. We’ll be sharing this in the next month.

As we mentioned above, this is very much v1.0 of Ziggy. We’ll continue to improve and iterate on this to make it better.

thanks for the update!
