flashcard
(noun)
A study aid for students who want to review key terms from their Boundless textbook.
Examples of flashcard in the following topics:
-
Study Tools
- Chief among these are flashcards, highlighting and note-taking capabilities, and practice quizzes.
- All key terms within Boundless content are programmatically turned into flashcards, so students can easily study important vocabulary words from a section or chapter of their textbook.
- Flashcards have a definition on one side, and when the card is flipped, the other side shows both the key term and the definition.
- Our flashcards use spaced-repetition technology, which shows the student a given word when they're most likely to forget it.
- In addition, after each flashcard a student can rate it easy, medium, or hard, which helps determine how frequently they get tested on that term again in the future.
