Quizlet

The memorization application.

Quizlet is an online study application that encourages students to study diverse subjects by learning resources and games. As a memorization aid, Quizlet enables registered users to construct a collection of words and concepts personalized to their own needs. These sets of terms can then be analyzed in a number of modes.

Flash Cards This mode is similar to paper flash cards. Users are shown a "card" for each term, which they can flip over by clicking or using the arrow keys or space bar. The user has the option for the face of the card to be an image, a word, or both.

Gravity

In this study mode, concepts scroll vertically down the screen in the form of asteroids. The user must type the word that fits the description before it reaches the bottom of the page. It's one of the 'Action' study modes. Gravity has been modified from the previous game, Space Race. The user will select the level of difficulty and the type of game.

Write

Users are shown a term or description in this study mode and must type a term or definition that fits what is shown. Upon entering their response, users can see whether or not their response was right and may opt to circumvent automated grading and count their response as correct if appropriate. This mode used to be called "Learn."

Speller

In this mode, the word is read out loud and users must type the right spelling in the term. If the user gets the reaction correct, they'll be rewarded with a video of a monster truck doing a jump, a wheelie, and a flip.

Match

Users are faced with a grid of dispersed words in this research mode. Users drag terms to the end of their corresponding meanings to delete them from the grid and aim to clear the grid as soon as possible. Micro-match is a matching game for handheld devices and tablets with small displays. Users can use the Micromatch mode on non-mobile devices by manually modifying the URL in Match mode to use "micromatch" instead of "match"
