Flashcard Learning System
The Flashcard Learning System in RoxWhy AI Notebook helps you create, organize, and study with digital flashcards generated from your conversations. This powerful tool leverages proven memory techniques like spaced repetition to help you efficiently memorias and retain information.
Key Features
AI-Generated Cards
The system automatically extracts key concepts, definitions, facts, and relationships from your conversations to create comprehensive flashcard sets. This saves you the time and effort of manually creating cards while ensuring important information is captured.
Multiple Card Types
The system supports various flashcard formats to suit different learning needs:
- Basic Cards: Simple question/answer pairs
- Definition Cards: Term on front, definition on back
- Fill-in-the-Blank: Sentences with key terms removed
- True/False: Statements to verify
- Multiple Choice: Questions with several possible answers
- Image Association: Combine text with relevant images
Flashcard Sets
Cards are organised into sets based on topics or conversations. You can:- Create multiple sets for different subjects
- Combine cards from different conversations into custom sets
Difficulty Levels
Each card can be assigned a difficulty level, either automatically by the AI or manually by you. This helps prioritise more challenging material during study sessions.
Study Mode
The interactive study mode includes:- Card flipping to reveal answers
- Self-assessment of your recall accuracy
- Spaced repetition scheduling based on your performance
Progress and Statistics
Track your learning with detailed statistics:- Overall mastery percentage for each set
- Performance history for individual cards
- Study session summaries
- Spaced repetition schedules
How Content Generation Works
Generating content follows a similar process regardless of the type:
1. Select Source Material: Choose one or more conversations to use as the basis for your content. 2. Configure Options: Set parameters specific to the content type (e.g., flashcard types, difficulty levels, card organization). 3. Generate Content: The AI processes your conversations and creates the requested content type. 4. Review & Edit: Review the generated content and make any necessary edits or adjustments. 5. Save & Export: Save the content to your library and, depending on the content type, export it in various formats.How to Study with Flashcards
The RoxWhy flashcard system is designed for effective studying using proven memory techniques:
Starting a Study Session
1. Select a flashcard set from your library 2. Choose a study mode: - Learn Mode: For new material - Review Mode: For previously studied cardsDuring the Study Session
1. For each card, try to recall the answer before flipping 2. After revealing the answer, rate your recall accuracy: - Correct: You recalled it perfectly - Incorrect: You struggled to rememberSpaced Repetition
The system uses spaced repetition to optimise your learning:
- Cards you find difficult will appear more frequently
- Cards you know well will appear less often but at increasing intervals
- This approach maximizes memory retention while minimising study time
Study Statistics
After each session, review your performance:
- Cards studied and mastery level achieved
- Time spent studying
- Progress compared to previous sessions
- Recommendations for future study
Tips for Effective Flashcard Learning
Create Focused Sets
Smaller, more focused flashcard sets are generally more effective than large, broad ones. Consider creating separate sets for different subtopics.
Study Regularly
Short, frequent study sessions (15-20 minutes) are more effective than occasional marathon sessions. The spaced repetition system works best with regular use.
Combine with Other Learning Methods
Use flashcards alongside other learning tools like mind maps and podcasts. For example: 1. Generate a mind map to understand the overall structure of a topic 2. Create flashcards for specific facts and definitions 3. Use podcasts to review the material in a different format
