Study Tips

Looking for a way to organize your index cards? I found the Oxford Index Card Binder by Esselte at a local office supply store. Each two-ring binder easily holds 75 3x5 cards, and comes with a small stack of pre-punched cards. The rings are spaced so that you can just punch your plain index cards with a standard three-hole punch and pop them in.

Are index cards too old school for you? Looking for a cross-platform computer/mobile device alternative? ABC grad Jody (Cohlene) Urbas called Anki to my attention, and we both think it's worth checking out.
