What's in a deck
Each upload gives you one deck, sized to your material:
- Up to 20 cards per pack on the free plan and up to 40 on Pro and Extreme. Short material gets fewer cards rather than filler.
- A question or term on the front, a short, clear answer on the back.
- Every card belongs to one of the pack's main topics, the same topics your quiz uses.
- A quiz and study notes from the same upload, if you want them.
How the practice works
Tap a card or press Space to flip it. If you knew the answer, choose Got it and the card leaves the session. If you didn't, choose Again and it comes back three cards later, while it's still fresh, so you keep meeting it until you get it. At the end you see how many cards needed another look. On a computer, press 1 or ← for Again and 2 or → for Got it.
Why flashcards work
Flashcards make you produce the answer before you see it. That active recall builds memory far better than reading highlighted notes, which mostly builds familiarity. Seeing a missed card again after a short gap adds a little spacing, another well-established way to remember more for longer. For an exam that's weeks away, come back to the deck over several days rather than in one long sitting.
Good cards come from good material
- Upload one lecture, chapter or topic at a time for a focused deck.
- Material with clear definitions and key terms makes the strongest cards.
- Use a PDF with selectable text. Scanned pages (photos of paper) aren't supported yet: if you can highlight and copy the words in your PDF viewer, it will work.
- PowerPoint (.pptx), Word (.docx) and plain text files work too, up to 20 MB (50 MB on Extreme), or you can paste text straight in.
Made from your notes only
Cards are written only from the text you upload, never from outside sources, so they match how your course explains things. EduCorrect is a learning aid. It turns material you already have into practice and never writes essays or answers assignment questions for you.
