Flashcards
There are two ways you can create flashcards for your collections, either manually or using AI. You can use both methods in your collections, and you can use any educational materials to make your flashcards, such as:
- Your own questions and answers
- Your own true or false statements
- Class notes or transcriptions
- Materials given to you in your classes
- Sections from textbooks or academic papers

- Click on the collection you would like to add flashcards into to open it.
- To add flashcards, click the '+New cards' button in the top right-hand corner of the collection menu.
- Click 'Create cards manually'.
- Choose the type of question you would like to add by choosing the '?' icon for a question and answer, or '✓/x' for a true or false question.
