Create Online Flash Cards
Flash cards are a great way to help your students review. There are several sites that allow you to create online flash cards. Some allow you to add images, audio, and even video. Many also allow you to embed the flash cards on your website or view them on an iPod or iPad. Your students could even create their own flash cards. I joined several of these sites and created a sample flash card set to explore the advantages and disadvantages of each site.
Funnel Brain http://funnelbrain.com (allows you to include photos, audio, video, and embed)
FlashcardDB http://flashcarddb.com (no images, just text, but allows you to score yourself using keyboard, embed code does not allow you to resize the cards so it may not fit on your blog, like here, but you can click the link at the bottom to see it in another window)

ProProfs http://proprofs.com (allows you to add images, embed, but no scoring)
Quizzlet http://quizzlet.com (just text for free version, but has special features like speaking the text and turning flash cards into quizzes and games, click the “Choose a Study Mode” button to try out some of the other features)
Finally, here are some that you can’t embed but are still pretty cool:
