The cueFlash site gives an old dog new tricks. Remember staying up late studying for that mid-term exam in biology and trying to remember all the muscles in the body, or the different genus, classes and species of animals?
Most of us used the trusty old index card for running through a variety of facts and studying information whenever we got a few spare minutes of time.
Now, you can do the same thing without leaving your computer. cueFlash lets you develop your own flash cards and share them with your classmates. Maybe even more interesting is the ability to view decks of flash cards that have been shared by other users. Topics range from U.S. State Capitals to something I’m very familiar with Airport City Codes.
cueFlash is a virtual flash card web program that you can access from anywhere. If you want to learn almost anything, from psychology terms to a foreign language you can learn it with cueFlash.
With cueFlash you can share decks with classmates, and add rich text to cards. When flipping through cards, the application continually resorts the deck to focus on cards you don’t know.
Did you catch that last part? It automatically resorts the deck to make sure you’re catching the areas you need the most work on for the test. Man! What I wouldn’t give to have had these kinds of tools in high school and college.
Hat tip to Lifehacker for uncovering this site for me.
