How it works Quizlet has 6 modes which help students learn and review new lexical items and check their knowledge

1. Digital flashcards demonstrate terms in which the students can flip them by touching the screen to show definitions or pictures that explain the term

2. Learn – words and their meanings can be learnt through multiple choice and writing questions ( questions are sorted from easy to difficult)

3. Write – students are asked to write the definitions for the terms or the pictures exposed. They can retake this module if they make an error

4. Spell – students are asked to type what they hear from the audio prompt. If they misspell the word, they will hear it dictated letter by letter while the correct answer is being typed in the screen

5. Test – consists of four types of questions: written, multiple choices, matching and True or False. The questions are based on the study set.

6. Match – a game in which learners are asked to match terms to their definitions (or the corresponding pictures) as quickly as possible. After finishing it , the app shows them their scores
