Quizlet

[|Quizlet] is a very simple and practical website that allows a user to create a set of online vocabulary flashcards. After creating a set of flashcards, the user is able to test herself in a variety of ways. The site takes all of the vocabulary words in a set and creates several different types of tests: multiple choice, matching, true-false, fill-in-the-blank. Quizlet also has social networking aspects that make it fun for a student to use. Students can see who else is viewing a particular set and chat with other users while on-line. It is a very easy and practical Web 2.0 resource.
 * What is Quizlet?**

Quizlet was introduced to 8th grade Latin students last semester, but then quickly spread in popularity and use among almost all the 8th graders before exams. The great thing about Quizlet is that students create accounts for themselves, students create the lists of terms and definitions, and students test themselves on the terms. It is an entirely student-centered learning tool.
