This helps keep the facts fresh since there is a decline in memory over time.  \n Try making both physical and digital flashcards to see which method you prefer; everybody learns differently so it's important to know what works for you!  \n Try writing your flashcards in as many ways as possible, e.g., questions paired with answers, key words paired with definitions, events paired with dates, etc.  \nStart studying your flashcards as early as possible to reduce stress and ensure a thorough memorization  \nFlashcards work well for scientific classes where memorization plays a big role in learning terms and concepts, but they can also be useful in all sorts of subjects, like art history, literature, and languages, for example. Having digital flashcards makes it easy to bring them with you wherever you go! Try reviewing on the bus or at the park to change things up!  \nOnline platforms for making flashcards  \nWhy should I use flashcards to study?  \nFlashcards are small cards with information written on each side to help you associate words with definitions and/or examples, to help you remember concepts and meanings in any given subject. Flashcards are useful study tools because they promote retrieval practice, which helps you to overcome the forgetting curve throughout a class or a study period.  \n. Flashcards can be physical or digital, and are easy to make.

What is it good for?  \nes)  \nAnki is a flashcard app that uses an algorithm called SuperMemo 2 (SM- 2), which is a research-based learning method relating to the forgetting curve. It helps you remind yourself of information right before you are said to forget it according to basic memory function. Anki shows you cards based on a fixed-time interval, increasing the interval as you progress.  \nLong-term memorization Cumulative exams  \nClasses that span one year  \nMaterial that should be remembered far into the future (e.g. for professional degre  \nWhere do I get it?  \nAnki is currently free to download on Mac and Windows. AnkiDroid is a free app version of Anki available to download on Android phones. If you are looking to use Anki on an iPhone or another Apple device which is not a computer, the app can be purchased in the App Store, but isnot currently available for free.  \nTips for using Anki  \nTry not to use Anki for tests that are approaching soon because Anki is designed to help you learn cards overlong time periods. If your test is in only a few days, you might not have enough time to use Anki to memorize your cards. Pay attention to your timeline and the amount of cards you need to learn; theset number of“new” cards per day is 20, but you can increase this if you need to. Anki has a lot of add-ons which can customize your study and help you memorize more complex concepts.  \nThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution–Non-Commercial 4.0 International License.

What is it good for?  \nBrainscape is a flashcard app that uses a self-assess algorithm in which you rate your own knowledge of each card (on a scale of one to five) and the app will adjust the time interval of each card accordingly. Brainscape allows you to organize your studying by decks, add images and sounds, and even collaborate with other editors. You can also browse decks from other students and track your studying progress.  \nGroup studying  \nSpaced repetition Short-term and long-term memorization  \nWhere do I g","cbCaihwn6JcEicax","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihwn6JcEicax","pdf",1279337,"English","# Flashcard tips to help you study\n## Making flashcards\n## Using flashcards\n## Online platforms for making flashcards\n## Why use flashcards?\n## Tool introductions: Anki\n## Tool introductions: Brainscape\n## Tool introductions: Excel\n## Tips for using Anki\n## Tips for using Brainscape\n## Tips for using Excel","[{\"question\":\"When is the best time to make flashcards for a lecture?\",\"answer\":\"Make flashcards immediately after the lecture you want to remember to keep the facts fresh, since memory declines over time.\"},{\"question\":\"What are flashcards and why are they useful for studying?\",\"answer\":\"Flashcards are small cards with information on both sides that help associate words with definitions and examples.
