Abstract
A computer-assisted method of assisting a user of a computer to memorize includes steps of displaying an image indicating a content to be memorized, on a left-hand side of a computer screen for a particular period; displaying text data indicating language information related to the image displayed in this displaying step, on a right-hand side of the computer screen for a particular period; and setting, by the user of the computer, an overlap ratio to indicate a degree of overlap between an area in which images are displayed in the image displaying step and an area in which text data is displayed in the text data displaying step. Once the overlap ratio is set, the image displaying step and the text displaying step are performed in accordance with the set overlap ratio, and the image displaying step and the text displaying step are performed repeatedly, thereby assisting the user of the computer to memorize.
