Brainscape
I discovered Brainscape a couple of weeks ago. This is an iOS app and website based tool where students learn vocabulary using flashcard that repeat based on Confidence Based Repetition (CBR). How does this make Brainscape different than regular flashcards? Once Brainscape shows the correct answer, the student is asked to rate the likelihood of remembering it forever in a scale of 1-5. 1 indicates "no confidence" and 5 indicates complete confidence. It also provides stats to show how well the user has mastered the terms.
I have included Brainscape research information and Brainscape FAQs for more information. This is a free app and website unless you are interested in an education account to set up flashcards for your students or want to purchase a license for a premium subject. Know that your students may create their own flashcards for free.
My daughter has tried Brainscape to learn Spanish vocabulary and has found it to be a fantastic tool to help her in studying. She feels it could help her with Anatomy and Physiology terms and possibly math formulas too.
