The conversation about flashcards continues in this third of three series about helping our students use retrieval practice in A&P. Advanced methods include stars & emojis, multiple cards, plus concept lists & maps. We remember stress expert Bruce McEwen and introduce our new sponsor: ADInstruments.

Flashcards | Stars & Emojis
10.5 minutes- Required prerequisites (we want you to succeed)
- A star, or other symbol—or even an emoji—can be used to code flashcards by:
- Star referred to as "five-sided" is a pentagram that can also be described as "five-pointed" ⛥
- It doesn't have to be a star. For me, it does—because I still fear being hit by a chalkboard eraser.
- Importance/priority of study (for test)
- Topic or type of flashcards
- Star referred to as "five-sided" is a pentagram that can also be described as "five-pointed" ⛥
- Using symbols can promote the practice of prioritizing learning tasks by prioritizing knowledge, making it a metacognitive habit
- Is it time to start using the emoji in biomedical literature? | The BMJ (umm, a journal article) my-ap.us/2TbF0cR
