Flashcards for your computer

Posted in Daily life, Education at 4:39 pm by LeisureGuy

Not “Flash” cards, but the old-fashioned learning aid updated for your computer. For example, CueCard (free):

CueCard is a simple and intuitive flash card program. Just make up cards for what you want to memorize, and CueCard will quiz you on them. CueCard features smart testing, which automatically focuses on the cards you are having trouble with. It also offers printing (including custom page layouts and sizes), pictures and sounds on cards, Unicode support, card formatting, a multi-lingual user interface, Import/Export, a study time. Version 1.5 minor update fixes a bug when importing cards from Excel.

Flashcard Exchange offers a huge library of already-made flashcards as well as the capability of making your own. Free.

FlashcardMachine offers similar functionality, also free.

jMemorize is a free Java flashcard program.

ProProfs.com is another flashcard site: make and share. Free.

That’ll get you started. Maybe I’ll make up a set of Esperanto flashcards to share. :)

UPDATE: Not free ($50) but maybe worth a look: StudyProf Flashcards. Link is to a Download Squad review.
