How to use Flashcards Overview

Browse your terms and definitions in our main Flashcard mode.

Click on the Arrow buttons with your mouse to flip between cards. You can also use the Left and Right arrow keys on your keyboard.

By default, Quizlet shows you both sides of the flashcard at once, but if you'd like to see only one side at a time simply uncheck the box that says "Both Sides" in the upper right-hand corner. Choose whether you want to see the Term or Definition first. Click with your mouse to flip the flashcard or use the Up and Down arrow keys on your keyboard.

Full screen, shuffle, and audio

The icons in the upper left corner of the card allow you to study in full screen mode, shuffle/random mode, and add audio.

Full screen - the icon on the left expands the flashcards to full screen, helpful for studying a set with images.

Shuffle - the middle icon randomly shuffles and re-starts the set of flashcards.

Audio - the right icon, shaped like a speaker, enables our audio features.

11 | P a g e

How to use SpellerOverview

In Speller you type what you hear. This mode works best for foreign language vocabulary and pronunciation, spelling, and familiarizing yourself with terms you don't know very well.

With audio in 18 languages Speller works automatically with almost any flashcard set.

Listen to a term or definition and type in the correct response. Click on the "replay audio" button or click "esc" to repeat the term. In this case the answer is “lait.” If you type it in correctly you move on to the next question. If you make a mistake, Speller shows you which letters you missed so you can try again.

In this example, the term was not spelled correctly. “Laee” was entered rather than “lait.” Speller shows that the the first part of the word “la” was spelled correctly and then highlights in green the proper letters to spell out the rest of the word. Speller then speaks the term again, “lait,” and spells out the correct spelling word letter by letter: “l”, “a”, “i”, “t”.

You must spell the word correctly to move on to the next term.

12 | P a g e

Speller asks 7 terms per round. In between rounds you receive a Progress Checkpoint to see how you’re doing. You must answer each term correctly twice in a row for it to count as Fully Learned.

Speller is complete once you’ve Fully Learned each term. On the results page  you can see the percentage of answers correct and which words you missed. You can repeat Speller again or move onto other Quizlet study modes like Flashcard, Learn, Test, Scatter, or Space Race.

13 | P a g e

How to use Learn

Overview

Learn Mode tests your knowledge of a subject after you've studied it a few times.

It keeps track of what you know and what you don't and retests you on your mistakes.

How it works

Quizlet prompts you with the back or the front of the flashcards you made.

A correct answer is put in the "Correct" bucket. An incorrect answer is put in the "Incorrect" bucket and Quizlet makes you retype the answer correctly to proceed.

If you don't know the answer, click "Give Up" and Quizlet  shows the correct answer.

Quizlet tracks what you get right and wrong as you progress through a set. At the end of each round, Quizlet retests you on what you missed.

Answer every term/definition correctly twice in a row and Learn mode ends.

14 | P a g e

Retest missed answers

After completing Learn mode you can choose to create a set that only contains the terms you missed.

Or you can just start studying the whole set again. After competing Learn mode you'll see this on the set page.

Customize Learn Mode

Quizlet can prompt you with either the term (front of the card) or definition (back of the card).

Turn on audio for Learn Mode.

Ignore case, punctuation, spaces, or stuff in parentheses when grading.

Edit in Learn Mode

If you notice a mistake (or want to make a change) to your term or definition while in Learn Mode, it's easy to fix.

After you answer the question (or give up), click "edit."

15 | P a g e

Then change whatever you'd like in the term or definition and click "save."

16 | P a g e

20 | P a g e

How to print from Quizlet Step 1: Choose mode

Select a printing mode. You will see it highlighted in green and can preview the printout on the left side of the page.

Glossary: terms and definitions side by side — good for cramming lots of info in your pocket.

Table: terms and definitions in a table — great for studying line-by-line with a covering piece of paper moving down the page.

Small: 10 flashcards per page.

Large: 5 flashcards per page.

3x5 Index Card: double-sided index cards.

Step 2: Open the file

Click "Open PDF" to open the printing file within your browser. It will look exactly like the preview.

Step 3: How to print

Select File -> Print from the top of your web browser.

With a keyboard you can use Command + "P" on a Mac or Ctrl + "P" on a PC.

21 | P a g e

How audio works on Quizlet Quizlet uses advanced text-to-speech software for its audio. All content in our supported languages will work automatically based on your written terms and definitions.

If you want to exclude certain content from audio, use parentheses and it will be ignored. For example, "cat (cat)" is spoken simply as "cat."

Get Started

Click on the speaker icon to activate audio on your flashcards. You can also click the speaker icon down below in your list of terms to hear each term and definition individually.

22 | P a g e

The pronunciations are usually (not always) accurate. Click to report an incorrect pronunciation or problematic audio clip.

Supported Languages

Currently, Quizlet supports audio for the following languages:

English Spanish

French

German

Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)

Portuguese

23 | P a g e

Arabic

Italian

Japanese

Korean

Russian

Turkish

Polish

Dutch

Greek (Modern)

Swedish

Finnish

Romanian

We expect to support more languages soon. Click to request another language you'd like to hear on Quizlet and we'll notify you when it becomes available.

Selecting the right language

If the audio sounds incorrect, it may be simply that the flashcard set is tagged with the wrong language.

To check, look at the language listed on the main Flashcard page. In the set below, if you wanted to change the language from "Spanish" you would click on "not Spanish" to see a dropdown list of all the language options.

Make sure you have the correct language selected or audio won't work correctly.

Troubleshooting

Step 1: Speaker Icons

Do you see little speaker icons next to your terms and definitions and at the top of the page? If not, audio is not enabled. This could be because you entered terms in a language we do not support, or the languages tagged to the set might just be wrong (see above "How do you know which language my set is in"), there's no text (image-only definition), or the text is too long to support audio.

Step 2: Audio on Your Computer

Find out if you can get any sets to work. Try U.S. State Capitals to see if audio works for you there.

24 | P a g e

If audio works for you, but only on some sets or terms and not others, please click to report a term with bad audio.

If the audio doesn't work on that set, try going directly to this audio test file. Note: we serve audio from "v.quizlet.com" even though the rest of Quizlet is from "quizlet.com". If this audio test file does not load then there's a strong chance that your network administrator may need to "allow" access to subdomains. This is often the case in schools with whitelist-based filtering software.

Step 3: Web Browser

Use a web browser like Chrome, Safari, or Firefox and make sure it's up-to-date If you use Internet Explorer, make sure you have the default JavaScript security

settings in place. Try Tools ->Internet Options->Security->"Reset all zones to default level"

Step 4: Check Flash

Make sure you have the most updated version of Flash If you're using Flashblock or ClickToFlash, add Quizlet to its whitelist

If you're on iOS (iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad) Flash is not required

Step 5: Contact Us

If you've tried all the steps above and are still having problems, contact us with any errors you're seeing.

Why is there a maximum number of classes I can join? We implemented this rule to prevent people from creating an unlimited number of non-studying-related classes. Remember that Quizlet classes are for studying, and study-related discussion, not chatting. For your classes you should not need more than this maximum of eight classes.

If you have a legitimate need for more classes (e.g. you're a teacher or school curriculum organizer), you can get them by becoming a Quizlet Plus member.

Why was our class deleted? Classes on Quizlet are for studying, not socializing. There are lots of other places on the web for general chat discussions, and we encourage you to use them for general chatting with your friends. Quizlet classes are specifically for study-related chat.

If your Quizlet class was deleted by Quizlet Support, it may have been either 1) because it had inappropriate content; 2) was not education or studying related; or 3) both.

Please keep your use of Quizlet study-oriented...thanks!
