Quizlet

Say goodbye to traditional flashcards. While doing research online, I stumbled across a fantastic tool for students.

Here's a nifty way that you can improve your vocabulary. It's called Quizlet. (Perhaps the first word you should look up is nifty...)

Simply enter the words you want to memorize, and then plunk in the definitions and voila! Instant genius! Well no, you have do to some work, but it is a big help. Organize the vocabulary into sets, print out flashcards, or test yourself online. .

If that all seems too ambitious for you, browse other people's ready made sets and use those. Do you have an exam on Shakespeare coming up? What about those pesky chemical compounds or earth science terminology? Someone has probably done the work for you.

I set up groups for my students in various classes, including SAT and TOEFL preparation and add new sets for them each week. The students love it.
