What is the advantages and disadvantages of flashcards?

Answer 1

To be honest I have never used Flashcards or even tried to, because as I am a College student I feel that Flashcards are too elementary to be truly helpful, and I think that most College students think like this.

Even though I have not used Flashcards yet, I believe that Flashcards are quite useful and an effective method to help students to study. If I tried to highlight the advantages of Flashcard I will find that they help to learn basic facts and vocabulary and it is portable means easy to carry to everywhere so I do not need to carry heavy books and so much notebooks because it is really convenient. Besides helping in learning basics and portable, they help in summarizing and memorizing, so by using Flashcards the student will not need to study from the book with long pages and a lot of information which makes the students confused, because he/she will be able to study from the Flashcards that content very simple points. And by using Flashcards the student will not only be learning new information, he/she will be able to review .e.g. for exams as well.
