The design, use and evaluation of hypermedia flashcards as a teaching tool

We find h-cards to be a popular and versatile addition to a wide variety of introductory and advanced courses. The use of client-side JavaScript means that you can use hcards regardless of internet connectivity, and put them onto CD-ROMs. People with no formal training in computer programming or web page design can make h-cards using free software and inexpensive cameras and scanners. Students like using h-cards, and they enjoy having their work associated with them. Most importantly, use of h-cards improved student performance.
