Add interactive Flashcards to your course Path to help learners test their recall, or engage learners by considering a new question, image, or audio clip, then flipping the card to learn more.
Sample Flashcards: learner preview mode on the left and edit mode on the right
How to create Flashcards
Create a new step on your course Path and open the step.
Select "Interactive" then "Flashcards." You've added a Block to your step!
Add text, images, and/or an audio clip to both sides of each card, using the Media Manager to insert your files.
Optionally add more Blocks. When finished, hit Save.
Editing a Flashcard
Type on the card to add text.
Select the image icon to switch from text-only to image with optional text and upload an image file (or .gif!). Use the same button (now displaying text icon) to switch back to text-only.
Select the audio icon to optionally upload an audio clip to the card.
Select the arrows icon to flip the card over and edit the reverse side of the card. It will be helpful to use Preview mode to play with the cards as a learner would see them.
