01 - Flashcards

 

The flashcards mode is a great way to introduce new content that is unfamiliar to the student. The default flashcard mode shows both the word and the picture.  

The record button in the flashcards game is just there for practice. It allows the user to try to say what they are hearing and then to listen to their own recording by pressing the play button. However, it does not actually save over the existing recording. That can only be done from the settings page.

Since there are many different ways of learning from using flashcards, we offer a variety of settings so that you can perfectly adapt the flashcards game to your students needs and preferences.

 The settings options include

Not only that.  We have even added an option to turn all of the cards "face up." This way even little kids or kids with special needs can enjoy playing Memory Cards.

NOTE: We are working on a new feature that will allow you to manually set what items should appear together in a future version.  Once we have added this (in v15), the Side by Side game will become even more flexible because you will be able to show more than just two items together.

17. Odd One Out

Odd One Out is our first game that takes advantage of Collections in Bitsboard.  In Odd One Out, you are comparing bits across two different boards at the same time.  For example, you might have a board with letters from A to Z and a board with numbers from 1 to 10.  If you put these two boards in the same Collection, then when you play Odd One Out, the user has to find which item does not belong.  The user is always presented with 3 items from one board and 1 item from another board.  

To ensure the best user experience, it is recommended to group boards into Collections.  If you don't group boards into Collections, then Bitsboard will randomly select two boards which may not always create a good learning experience since this game is not appropriate for all boards.  That is also why it is important to remember to turn specific games ON and OFF for each board. 

You can customize both the label and the audio for the Odd One Out game from the settings page.

  • Audio Prompt:
    • Update Label: You can update the text by selecting it and changing it to something else.
    • Update Audio: You can record your own audio by pressing on the record button. 

18. Sort It

Sort It is our second game that takes advantage of Collections in Bitsboard.  In Sort It, you are comparing bits across two to five different boards at the same time and you have to figure out how to sort the items that are presented to you.

With Sort It, you can create some really fun educational games for people of all skills and ages. 

Example 1: Sort Related Items Game

The first type of game that you can play with "Sort It" is a related items game.  How do you play it?  Simple, just combine multiple boards in one collection.  In the example above we have added 3 boards (beach, tools, winter clothes) into one Collection called (Related Items).  When you now play "Sort It" user have to sort all of the related items.

Example 2: Sort Items by Category (sound)

Another really popular way to play Sort It! is to change the Display Options from "Related Items" to "Board Name." If you do that, you can create a whole new category of games that ask users to sort all kinds of boards.  In the example above users have to sort the items based on their starting sound.

Example 3: Sort Items by Category (numbers)

In the example above, we created three unique boards based on the number of items.  The first board "2" contains only images where two items are being displayed, the second board "3" contains only images with 3 items, etc.  The above example, is a wonderful way to get users to demonstrate their knowledge and skill with numbers.
