Just another thing I remembered concerning memorisation: Normally, after you memorised something, you start forgetting. The curve for this looks like that for radioactive decay (or whatever "Radioaktiver Zerfall" is called in English) - after say, twenty days you only remember half of the items you memorised.
One counter measure for this is a special schedule for repetition:
After..
1 hour
2 hours
4 hours
1 day
2 days
4 days
1 week
2 weeks
4 weeks
1 month
2 months
4 months
etc.
With STARS you can probably skip the hour part, but if you're aiming for long term memorisation of stuff you don't use regularly, a repetition schedule would be a good thing. And another thing that could be added to the computerized version of STARS 
Gotta sleep,
