hello all,
over the past few years i have experimented with various flashcard programs but each has it flaws and has left me still searching for the ever elusive blend of the two. if it was web based or actual software is fine. i have a hp touchsmart tablet with windows 7 if it helps.
the two programs i have tried so far are:
1. flash card manager
pros: i like being able to rate how i knew the answer...how confortable i was with my knowledge of the answer. i also like being able to create categories for each lecture that enable me to keep organized. very easy to use
cons: the ratings bring up the flascard again way too soon if you give ut a low rating. it only presents 20 at a time and if you rate 1 low then it brings it up quickly
2. anki
pros: goes through entire cards before you review.
cons: review is scheduled too far in advance if you select high familiarity. no options to categorize by lecture. interface is not very intuitive to use.
bascially i would like something that would give me the option to go through the entire category of cards for a lecture, rate my familiarity with the answers then allow me to go back and review the ones i am not as comfotable/familiar with in my knowledge.
anyone have any good suggestions??
