Built for Students...Loved by Teachers...StudyBlue

It's that time of year again, when teachers are prepping review materials and students are cramming for that final exam or Regents.  Get your student's excited again about learning by introducing them to StudyBlue! If you like Quizlet, then you are going to love StudyBlue.  This online study tool designed for our digital native students who want the ability of studying in the palm of their hand.  StudyBlue allows students to study using a computer, or on-the-go using either the Apple or Android app.   


StudyBlue provides users with lots of different study tools including flashcards, quizzes, test reviews, and much more.  What I like about StudyBlue is that students can quiz themselves using their flashcards and the program keeps track of which ones they got right and wrong, enabling them to focus on mastery.  It also reminds the students where they left off during their previous session and how long ago they studied.   If their problem is remembering to study... no worries.  Students can set a study reminder for any online flashcards or notes and the program will send them a text message when it's time to study again - with a direct link to the material.  Failure is futile!!  Often referred to as "your digital backpack", StudyBlue allows users to create their own study material or search the flashcard directory for materials submitted by others.

Here's a great video demonstrating the free Apple app and how  easy it is to create a flashcard that includes an image and how to use your voice to enter the definition.
