Kal Mannis on 25 Apr 10This site allows you to create flashcards that can include both audio and pictures. The format is basic but flexible. The one thing you have to be aware of is the save function. You have to save cards as you go along in order to view them. The one downside is moving between the preview screen and the edit screen. There is no embedded button to return to the working area you have to use the back navigation button. But since this site is still in Beta that may change.
Flashcard Machine - 0 views

Flashcard Machine can be used for essential learning by offering users the opportunity to create online pretraining artifacts. These flashcards can contain important vocabulary, names, formulae, etc. that can prepare learners for the upcoming lesson. I chose this tool because it is a reputable site and offers several features that can enhance the final product such as attached quizzes. -
A great way for students to pre-train on material and solidify essential learning. While these could be used for basic, generative learning depending upon the context of the flashcard, they are primarily for essential learning. This is a great site for this as it has applications available on iOS and Android so students can take it with them. Also, teachers can setup stacks for distribution, and students can create their own.
Pro Profs Flashcard Maker - 0 views

I am using Pro Profs Flashcard Maker to introduce the concept and terminology of wikis during the pre-training section of my workshop. This will allow learners to process the essential information that will be needed in order to achieve the instructional goal. I like this activity for pre-training because it is "frontloading" the learning event with essential information. These flashcards are created online and can be embed them into my wiki. Its simplicity and multifunctional use make in an attractive tool for any teacher.

Quizlet is a site that allows learners to create online flashcards. Teachers can create sets to share with their learners, or learners can create their own. Some of the best features of Quizlet are the cost (free), capability of adding images to flashcards, and the fun factor. Quizlet creates games using the flashcards creating by the user, allowing learners study vocabulary in a more engaging manner. It can be used for essential learning by providing learners with key terms prior to the lesson. This knowledge will allow learners to focus their attention and working memory on the content, rather than the new terms. This site is better than other similar sites I have found and used because it is easy to use and provides options that other sites do not have, like uploading images. -
This site provides a simple way to create learning tools that let you study anything, for free. You can also share what you create or use resources others have shared.

National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Illuminations - 0 views

Using Illuminations, which is sponsored by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, exposes the students to simulations that will assist in the understanding of this difficult concepts. -
I recall the drill and skill activities of the first computers in my classroom. They were similar to the flashcards previously used with the added advantage of bouncy smiley faces entertaining the students' correct response. The sites shared above go far beyond such response strengthening multimedia. The Chinese proverb goes, "Give me a fish and I eat for a day. Teach me to fish and I eat for a lifetime." A proverb for multimedia learning might say tell me information I learn for a day, show me information I learn for a week, teach me to find and use information I learn for a lifetime. This course will model this metaphor for the teachers who will in turn model it for their students as they construct their own knowledge.

ProProfs is another website to use for pretraining. ProProfs has a free trial but is fairly inexpensive for educators.ProProfs allows you to embedd your quizzes. Again pre-training activates prior knowledge and allows the learner to prepare himself for what is to come. Pro Profs also has a flashcard maker as well as a game maker, both of which you can embed in websites.

This is a great website where multiple opportunities are given in different formats to review and practice computer terms in the format of flashcards, matching, concentration and word search. The participant has an option of clicking on the link on the page and view or print out computer terms and definitions. -
Quia is a site that allows users to create quizzes, surveys, web pages, and more. Quia is available for purchase and I have found Quia user-friendly and very useful for teachers and students.
