Flash Cards

Technical courses require a certain amount of memorization
There are certain terms and concepts that you have to know ...
in order to do the coursework
In my classes the things you have to memorize appear on quizzes
Each class has an ungraded quiz
Each Tuesday there is a quiz on Gradescope
These quizzes are graded ..
to give you an incentive to learn the material
What's the best way to study for the quizzes?
I would recommend flash cards
A flash card is an index card
With a question on one side
And the answer on the back
You should create a set of index cards for each ungraded quiz question
Then review them a few times during the week
I did this for all classes I took at UMB
I would review them on the T ...
as I went back and forth to work
There are programs that you can use ...
to create flash cards on your machine
But it is better to write your own
The simple act of writing each card ...
helps you to remember
Flash cards are particularly important when studying for the Midterm and Final
60% of the questions on these exams come from the ungraded Class Quizzes
