Flash Cards

Hello my wonderful, smart and hard-working students!

Here is a great study tool for you: http://www.ankisrs.net/

You can download the program for flashcards and then create flashcard decks on any topic you want! You can also download and synchronize it on your smartphones. You can share the cards you create and combine decks. Isn't it great?

Flashcards are a great tool to learn new words and terms, but they are not very helpful to understand relationships, so use them wisely.

For every 10 high-quality flashcard you create for this course, you will get a bonus point.

You can get up to 3 bonus points for this exercise.

Please do not repeat cards. If somebody else already created a flashcard for a term, do not write another card for the same term.


Trust me- this will help with all your courses (particularly English), if you start using it regularly.

So please create and share (no more than 30) you cards.
