Overview

Teaching and learning aid

FlashCardGenAI is an educational iOS app. It is both a teaching and learning aid that facilitates the organised storage and retrieval of data (text, images, internet page links) researched and sourced by the user about any chosen subject. Data is saved into any number of notes (FlashNotes) which are in turn associated with a flash card (FlashCard) to represent some item of knowledge. FlashCards can be grouped together as needed into sets (FlashSets) representing a topic area. FlashSets can also be grouped together as needed into groups (FlashGroups) representing a broad subject area. This enables users to build their own flexible library of classified information to suit your individual study and learning goals.

Automated generation of self-tests

FlashCardGenAI can then automatically generate both multiple choice and AI generated question and answer tests based on the knowledge encapsulated in any chosen selection of FlashCards enabling the user to verify and consolidate their understanding of that subject matter.

Great for visual learners

Images play centre stage in the design, aiding visual learners as you seek to internalise new information and deliver a classic hook for effective association and recall.

Integrated search and content generation

Features include fully integrated, fast, and intuitive research tools for sourcing representational images and constructing unlimited sets of fully rendered notes. Notes support markdown and KaTeX (streamlined LaTeX) as required for optimal presentation either manually or using premium services for extra for speed and efficiency. This allows both teachers and learners to create FlashCards interactively as information is presented for a rich, personalised glossary of organised data.

Fully scalable

Data is held in the users private Apple cloud account ensuring performance, resilience and security.

Sharing for co-operative working

The system provides managed sharing options to facilitate co-operative working. This enables interactive guided exploration as well as an immediate learn and test cycle between teacher and students regardless of location as required.

Standard version fully functional

The standard app is fully functional using illustrating images selected either from the operators personal iCloud store of photos or from UnSplash (a free internet source of fully credited high-quality photographs) supported with manually entered notes.

Premium features for enrichment and speed

Users can unlock premium features as required by purchasing associated subscriptions to increase the breadth and depth of image sourcing with Google Images and/or to generate content, tests and images using AI.
