Quick Guide: Complex Flashcards

These specialized flashcards prompt students to self-check their recall of terms or concepts. They may support visual and/or auditory content through the inclusion of images and/or audio clips.

Note:

  • Each deck may include audio content or student text entry on all cards (not both). These elements cannot be mixed and matched within individual decks.
  • Third-party content from Spotify may not be used in these activities.
  • To include special characters on cards (e.g., formulas, equations), see Quick Guide: Using LaTeX for Cognella Active Learning.

Reminder: Working with Audio Recordings and Images

Before developing any content related to audio recordings and/or images, please see Quick Guide: Selecting and Recording Audio and Active Learning Image Guide. Record these resources in the relevant audio log and/or image log, and submit the log(s) to your Active Learning project editor.
