Instructify

The big biology test is tomorrow and you still haven’t studied. As you struggle to find your notes on the genus Vaccinium, you begin to miss the days when study terms were conveniently recorded on flash cards. In an effort to go green, you decided to stop using paper this semester, a decision you now regret while searching aimlessly through files on your laptop. Should you really have to choose between saving the trees and saving your grades?

Thanks to Cramberry, students won’t have to choose between the environment and their GPA. Cramberry can help both! Its virtual flash cards are stored entirely online, and according to the site, they are “700000% smarter than ordinary flash cards. As you study, Cramberry will record your progress on each card, and show you only the cards you’re having difficulty with.” The cards that you create can be used to study for anything, from potential test questions to learning a foreign language. Plus, the site allows you to share sets of cards with your classmates or students. And don’t worry, iPhone users, Cramberry is already working on an application for you.

So throw away your old-fashioned flash cards, or better yet, recycle them! Encourage your students to recycle their old flash cards as well, and embrace the new, refreshing taste of studying with Cramberry. –JIMI RADABAUGH
