Educational methodology
Pythagorean Method of Memorization (PYMOM), also known as Triangular Movement Cycle (TMC), is a game based, educational methodology or associative learning technique that primarily uses corresponding information, such as terms and definitions on opposing sides, displayed on cue cards, to exploit psychological retention of information for academic study and language acquisition. PYMOM is named such because of the shape the cue cards form during the progression of the game, a right angled or Pythagorean triangle. the historical, physical incarnation, the Triangular Movement Cycle and
the digitized version, incorporating the significant addition of the aforementioned educational methods and theories, Pythagorean Method of Memorization.

As with both branches, there is only one variable in the game or learning method: a correct or incorrect answer. The initial movement cycle also remains largely unchanged. PYMOM wove established educational theory into the fabric of TMC to create a viable educational platform for academic and linguistic study by several means. Because spaced repetition is intrinsically part of the movement cycle subroutines, it adds to the content and surrounding experience making it into a platform. The developers of PYMOM describe it as an “organic learning experience.” The tenets that truly allow a learning system to be a PYMOM based system are enumerated thusly: The Von Restorff effect: for example, where it features a language, this method is employed to further aid in memory retention of the highlighted word in the phrase. Chromatics: there are no white backgrounds where learning takes place. Positive Reinforcement: There are no truly "wrong" responses, only mistakes. These mistakes are greeted by neutral reinforcement and "correct" responses are rewarded with positive reinforcement. Picture Association: Visual aids should accompany concept based material. Selective Musical Tonality: the learning experience should always incorporate music; generally instrumental, that aids learning by increasing focus and reducing stress (which inhibits learning). Kinesthetics: whether by utilizing a touch screen, key board or mouse, a level of physical movement should always be present while learning to further increase retention. The Serial Position Effect: taking breaks at specific, regular intervals to aid in learning and reduce stress levels. Meditation: a session of meditation should be incorporated into every learning session to allow for further retention of the information.
