Hello All,
I just installed Anki on both a Windows 11 computer and a Linux box running Ubuntu. It also works on MACs
This program allows you to create digital flash cards on a computer or a smart phone
It is commonly used by medical students trying to master marerial
You can import content created by others in fields such as Medicine, Law, Languages, History, Art and many more
You can also create your own material.
The concept is that the first screen displays an image, plays a sound or shows text.
Example: A painting appears on the screen and asks Who is the artist?
You mentally respond and then click a button to display the answer.
You then click a button on the screen indicating how well you did.
If you knew the answer, the flash card will not reappear often.
If you did not, you click the button that most closely matches your knowledge
If you indicate that the question was very hard, it will repeat frequently, less often the greater your confidence level
