Flashcards with spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know move to longer gaps, so review time goes to what you are actually forgetting.

Quizzes with explanations

Multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of why the correct answer is right.

Works with your own files

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or images. Photos of pages are read with text recognition.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, slides, notes or photos of a textbook page. No credit card is needed to start.

Study on a schedule

Work through flashcards and quizzes in the browser, and let spaced repetition decide when each card returns.

Flashcards use spaced repetition, so the cards you struggle with come back sooner and the ones you know fade into longer gaps. Quizzes test recall with multiple choice, true or false and short answer questions, and each one explains the reasoning behind the answer.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for Greek mythology?

Start with 20 to 30 cards covering the main gods, heroes and myths on your syllabus, then add more as you learn. Keep related material in one set, such as a single myth or a family tree of the gods, so connected facts stay together.

How do I study Greek mythology with flashcards effectively?

Review a short set daily and say the answer out loud before flipping the card. Mix in questions about cause and consequence, such as why Prometheus was punished, not only names and dates.

Does DeckOwl have a free plan?
