Flashcards | Stars & Emojis

10.5 minutes

  • Required prerequisites (we want you to succeed)
  • A star, or other symbol—or even an emoji—can be used to code flashcards by:
    • Star referred to as "five-sided" is a pentagram that can also be described as "five-pointed"
      • It doesn't have to be a star. For me, it does—because I still fear being hit by a chalkboard eraser.
    • Importance/priority of study (for test) 
    • Topic or type of flashcards
  • Using symbols can promote the practice of prioritizing learning tasks by prioritizing knowledge, making it a metacognitive habit
  • Is it time to start using the emoji in biomedical literature? | The BMJ (umm, a journal article) my-ap.us/2TbF0cR
