What is the StudyCards Viewer?

The StudyCards™ Viewer is a calculator software application

that you use to view electronic flash cards that were created

using the StudyCards Creator PC software program. The

StudyCards Viewer also tracks the answers given and displays

results for individual cards as well as the entire stack.

The StudyCards Creator is a PC software program that teachers

and students use to create stacks of cards that can be viewed on

the TI-73 or TI-83 Plus. Individual cards can contain text and

images (bitmaps and calculator screen shots).

You can use the StudyCards Creator or TI-GRAPH LINK™ to

transfer stacks from the PC to the calculator.

For detailed information on how to use the StudyCards Creator,

see the TI73 / TI83 Plus StudyCards Creator user guide at

education.ti.com/guides.

TI thanks the 1998-1999 Carnegie Mellon HCI project team

members for their contributions to the development of this

product.
