        Hello everyone
        I’m back with another tool of mine that I would like to share with you all. As I have been going through the course, I found that I did naturally pick up on a lot of the terms as they were repeated, but there were a few that I always struggled with. As I got into all the plant overviews, I found that that list grew, so in order to help with that, I made up a list of 81 different flashcards. All of these terms come from the course, and are either stated by Doc or is listed in one of the plant overviews. Now I recognize this isn’t how going to help you identify what a plant is, but this should help you identify what a plant does.

        You can use this link to just look at all the flashcards and their definitions, but if you use the Anki app (either on your mobile device or on the web) you can test yourself and review all the flashcards with a method called Spaced Repetition. I hope this is a blessing to you!

          Hi Greg. Thank you for the link. I’m not sure if I did this right or not; but I’m only getting one flashcard which seems to be a sample. I’ve downloaded the app as well with no further guidance that leads to more than a sample. Perhaps it’s not up and running quite yet. Thank you for such a noble effort. I’ve attempted to start my own flashcards; but will be a lifelong process. I notice that the school itself has a category with flashcards, but last I checked, it did not seem to have anything printable or downloadable to print. Thank  you again.

              Hmm, I can’t seem to replicate that issue. What I just did was download the desktop app from their website, then downloaded the card pack, then clicked on Import and selected the file. After that all the cards were in there and available to study

                Greg, Thank you so much for your help with the flash cards! They printed off beautifully and will help me learn the terms quickly and

                increase my ability to understand the concepts presented in the lessons efficiently.

                      If anyone would rather have all the terms with definitions not in Anki, I can make a list and post it here

                        Thank you, Greg.  The flash card sample looks great. Now  I need to figure out how to print them. I am old school so this tech stuff does NOT come easy:/

                          Ok I went through and made a PDF of all the different flashcards so you can print them off. You could fold each paper in half so the term would be on one side and the definition on the other, or maybe cut them all out and you could try and match them. Hope it helps!
