Welcome
prospective parents and students!
You are invited to
study our online flashcards, free of
charge. You can use our system in
any way you see fit. Our only stipulation is that you
register on our website.
Registration is free and not obligatory in any way.
We have developed a number of resources to help new users learn more about Free
World U. While you are free to explore our site in any way you choose, we
have developed a roadmap to guide new users. The resources linked to on
the left of this page are arranged in order of importance and should be followed
sequentially.
Before you start studying flashcards, please understand that this is an
entirely ungraded process.
The flashcards are there for you and you
alone. When you see a flashcard, you will see a question and attempt to answer
it in your mind. Sometimes the answer is a unique word, sometimes it is one of
several words, and sometimes it is an idea which can be expressed by a variety
of words. In the end, you are the final judge of whether or not you understand
the concept and have answered the question correctly. You will likely want to
study each flashcard several times before you are confident that you know it.
To study a group of flashcards, first select a school. You may
browse all available schools here. Select the Year that
you are interested in, then the Subject, then the Topic, and finally the
Subtopic. The school is the highest level of a five tiered classification system
that branches out like a tree. Only
subtopics contain flashcards. The rest of the categories are for classification
only.
School > Year > Subject > Topic > Subtopic > Flashcard
You will be presented with the question side of the first flashcard in that
subtopic. Wonder about the answer. Then click Show Answer to see the
other side of the flashcard with the answer. You can flip back and forth between
the question side and the answer side. Make a decision about whether you know
the answer and the degree to which you will remember it. When you mark a
flashcard as Incorrect you will see it again after you have gone
through the subtopic and have started it again. You won't see any of the cards you
marked as Correct; never show again. Only
choose this selection if you believe that you will remember the answer for
the rest of your life.
Cards you've marked as Correct; show again after 1 day,
will appear if you start the subtopic over one day or more after you finish it.
When you finish a subtopic, you have the option to "reset" it, allowing you to
see all cards in it when you start it over.
