What is a Flashcard?

A Flashcard is a two-sided piece of content that typically contains a term or idea on one side and a definition or description on the other. Flashcards can also feature an image and can be related to articles.

Flashcards can stand alone or be related to a learning object in the learning object authoring environment. If a Flashcard is related to a learning object that has been added to a Course it will only be visible within that Course and will not display as a stand-alone element in the application.
