What do you do when it’s 1:37 A.M. the morning of that big Spanish test and you don’t know any of the vocabulary?
You go to Quizlet of course!
Quizlet is the online version of flash cards created by Andrew Sutherland who…
started Quizlet in October 2005. I had just received a list of 111 French Animals to memorize from my magnanimous French teacher. I was puttering along with my dad with some call-and-response type quizzing. “Man, I love doing this” was NOT what I was thinking. So I put my thinking cap on, and the first line of code for Quizlet was written that night.
There you have it. I’ve tried it; it’s pretty fun for a homework help site.
From past experiences, I know that I shouldn’t try to go too in-depth on any subject; it hurts my brain and bores the hell out of most people. But try it for yourself and you’ll see what I mean when I say that Quizlet is the future in vocab memorization.
