Custom Flashcards: Ideas needed

Post by Joan Marie »

I found an app that I can use to make sets of flashcards for use on this forum.

What I'd like to know is if any of you have ideas of what would make good flashcard sets?

One idea I had is to learn the French names of the Tarot de Marseille. So, there would be a picture of the card (Majors and Courts) and the user would have to type in the name of the card, in french.
You would have to actually recognise the card too.

I could also do a set of cards to learn different symbols, elements, Qabalah, planets, zodiac signs.

Besides flashcards, there are also matching games, and other things. So it's kind of flexible. (we'll see how flexible I am at figuring out how to do this, but I think I can.)

So I would love to hear your ideas for interesting topics that could be applied to this medium.

I'm not sure I understand - do you mean it would be like a game that would be on the site somewhere? Or something in the side column?

It would be a game that I would put on my (fledgling) website, rabbitsmoontarot.com and link to it from here. (my "store" is there also - right now it is where you can subscribe and support this forum) It's a wordpress website and potentially adds a lot of functionality to this forum.

For example, I have created a very simple (and not very pretty) "drag and drop" game about astrology signs. I would link to it from the Astrology section here. Eventually, I would like to create an "interactive learning games" section here on the forum.

These are live interactive learning games, technical-wise they cannot be "housed" on this forum, but I can create seamless links from here to my website.

Hopefully I will get my first little try up today and you can kind of see what I mean.

This app I've found allows creation of several types of games, the possibilities are pretty endless.

Hi Joan Marie, thanks for the explanation. I don't see why not!:) Could be useful for those wanting to get a grip with name, symbols etc. (PS - the link just goes to the forum...)

Thanks. I fixed the link. I will get a game posted there shortly.

I was thinking the same thing for starters, names, card meanings, symbols. I'd be really interested in any ideas anyone has.
