Current Priority
Website Restructuring
Our main website has experienced so much natural growth since its launch. We’re currently working on updating our navigation so new learners can understand Refold and get started learning more quickly.

Partnerships with Schools
One of the major goals of Refold is to integrate the input-based methodology into traditional classroom curriculum. We are cultivating partnerships with various in-person and online language programs.

DE1K Deck
KO1K v2
IT1K Deck
GEN1K Deck
We have a lot of members of our community who are interested in learning English as their target language. With that in mind, we have created an English deck called GEN1K as a base that can be easily translated to other languages. We are in the process of creating those translations so that anyone can learn English, no matter what their Native Language is!
Compiling Research
Second Language Acquisition has not been thoroughly studied and most of the information we have is anecdotal. We are working on putting numbers behind the stories.

Content Collection & Recommendation System
As a small community, collecting resources in Google Docs was a fine solution. As we have grown, our documentation has become disorganized and confusing for new learners. With the help of our Data Wizard Josh, we are working on centralizing and organizing our resources, as well as building a tool to make intelligent content recommendations for learners.

Better Grammar Guides
Most grammar guides out there are written to get learners speaking first. This causes them to be confusing and packed with so much unnecessary information. Comprehension-focused grammar guides can solve this problem since they would be smaller and focused only on helping learners pick up the basics.
Video Explanations
User feedback tells us that our Roadmap is on the wordy side. We want to start creating short, digestible videos explaining key immersion ideas to new learners. We predict this will improve the onboarding process and help new learners feel less overwhelmed by the information.
