Winflash
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WinFlash refers to a family of educational software programs developed by Open Window Software. The discussion below focuses on WinFlash Educator.
The program was developed to maximize the efficiency of study time spent on memorization-intensive subjects. It incorporates the proven Leitner System for developing and maintaining mastery of large, long-term data sets (e.g. language vocabulary, medical terminology, aircraft operating procedures) but also offers several more targeted study modes that are more suitable for short-term needs, including the occasional 'cram session'.
