Cram Studying with Flashcards
Flashcards have traditionally been used by
teachers to help students memorize and understand
hard concepts. Students use flashcards to make
notes, revise, and test themselves as they
prepare for their exams. Today, there are many
online flashcard tools available for students but
most of them promote rote memorization. Some
tools have improved upon this shortfall by
prioritizing the Active Recall or active
memory stimulation during the learning
process. Cram is one such free study tool that
integrates fun with learning and makes it easy
for students to both memorize and understand the
concepts. You can create your own flashcards, add
pictures, share it with others, and study
together in a classroom environment.

How is Cram different? Cram has an amazing
collection of flashcards on different subjects in
various languages, helping millions of students
easily memorize historical dates, facts, numbers
and other useful information by using the
Leitner system. Unlocking the Cram Mode The
Cram Mode or Leitners system is a spaced
repetition study method. Here, there are 5
different levels which the cards have to pass
through starting from level one to complete your
revision. Every correct answer moves the card one
level up and the wrong answer pushes it back to
level one. Eventually you will have to study and
memorize all cards before they reach the final
level. To start the cram mode, you have to select
the flashcard set, click on the memorize tab and
select the cram mode on the right hand side of
the screen under Memorization Style. Fun way
to learn
Learning something new may sometimes be tedious
and boring, but flashcards can make it a fun
activity. Cram has added two games Jewels of
Wisdom and Stellar Speller to every set of its
3
flashcards to keep the students interested in
what they learn. Once you open a set of
flashcards to study, you can click on the
Games tab and select either one of these
games. Add Ons Test Yourself Every set of
flashcards has the test mode where students can
test what they have learnt. You can select
between four testing formats Matching, Written,
Multiple Choice, and True/False. Audio
assistance Cram has an audio assistance feature
attached to every flashcard to help learn
pronunciation and sound. This helps to remember
difficult words that have many syllables and to
learn a new language.
Mobile App The Cram App is downloadable on both
