CoboCards.com not only lets you create flashcards with friends, but it also lets you study online with friends. There’s no need to sit across the desk from a friend; CoboCards will flash the answer in front of you and your friend, and he or she will then let you know whether you got it right or wrong! It’s a wonderful study tool to use, because it also allows a ‘team,’ or class of students, to create flashcards for their learning together. Then, when the flashcards are created, students can work collaboratively within the site to learn the material! I make sure that the questions from the flashcards show up on tests so the students feel good about studying hard. I’d also make sure to throw a few flashcards out there myself to ensure that the flashcards are going over the correct material. If I assigned a class of 20 students to do 4 flashcards each, I’d have a pretty big library of flash cards! If NCVPS course shells assigned students in Spanish I to create 4 flash cards each, we’d have one heck of a huge collection of Spanish flash cards!
