Flashcards

The perfect way to digest tricky information quickly.

What are Flashcards?

Simple and highly useful, flashcards have a question on one side and answer on the other. Use them to test your knowledge of tricky facts and figures, or for straightforward Q & A’s. Alternatively, customise your flashcards with words & definitions, theory & explanation, or whatever information you need to learn fast.

How are they useful?

Flashcards help to improve your memory as they require the mental process of active recall. This means you will actively engage with a topic, rather than just passively soaking up information. Using short sentences and one word answers will help you to memorise facts and make the information stick in your mind clearly.

Why create Flashcards?

They’re a great way to memorise the most important facts and figures for your exams. Create them online and stretch your brain further by testing yourself with missing words; or print them off in A5 or A6 to get the most out of your flashcards while on the go.
