Improvements, LEARNED button, group conscription etc

[Steve]

Regarding the “mark as learned” suggestion: will think about it, but for now the recommendation is to just delete the word. (I realize this won’t then count towards your “words learned”)

Is it possible to get like a group conscription since I’m trying to get my whole highschool use it?

I think this is unlikely for the reasons I gave here: How to encourage my English students to use readlang every day - #2 by Steve. Quoting myself:

@Steve

a) I don’t really have a reliable way to verify they really are a “student”
b) isn’t everyone using Readlang a student since they are using it to learn, whether they are at an institution or not?

@Steve

in the past I had a couple of different teachers reach out with similar requests and I actually did start the process of offering a bulk discount, but in both cases it didn’t go ahead since they had trouble getting it approved by the admin/bureaucracy at their institutions.

For now, I’m happy for teachers to use Readlang with their students for free, and maybe at some point some of those students may decide to upgrade. (Of course, even offering it for free can be problematic due to legal reasons, unfortunately I don’t have the legal resources to be able to comply with some of the laws that govern use of software by children in schools.)
