http://www.se.eecs.uni-kassel.de/~fujabawiki/index.php/EDOBS#About - OSS - eDOBS is the eclipse plugin version of the Dynamic Object Browsing System. It visualizes object worlds and thus makes it easier to imagin what happens when certain actions are done. So you can actually _see_ what happens when e.g. a method is invoked.

Ebbinghaus discovered many lawlike regularities of mental life. He was the first to draw a learning curve. Among his original observations was an account of a strange phenomenon that would drive his successors half batty for the next century: the spacing effect.
Ebbinghaus showed that it's possible to dramatically improve learning by correctly spacing practice sessions. On one level, this finding is trivial; all students have been warned not to cram. But the efficiencies created by precise spacing are so large, and the improvement in performance so predictable, that from nearly the moment Ebbinghaus described the spacing effect, psychologists have been urging educators to use it to accelerate human progress.
