Organizing Flashcards on Scholarly

Now that you have created your flashcards on Scholarly, let's explore how you can effectively organize them:

1. Pages and Subpages

Scholarly's organizational structure revolves around pages and subpages. Create different pages to categorize your flashcards based on subjects, courses, or any other relevant criteria. Within each page, you can create subpages to further organize flashcards based on specific topics or chapters.

2. Reordering and Nesting Components

Scholarly allows you to reorder flashcard components within a page. Simply click and drag the components to rearrange them as per your desired sequence. Additionally, you can nest components within others, creating a hierarchy that helps maintain a logical flow and structure for your flashcards.

3. Folders and One Deck per Lecture or Chapter

Keep each deck scoped to a single lecture, chapter, or source, and group related decks in folders by course or subject. A deck that maps to one source is easier to review before a class or exam, and it keeps the deck editor manageable when you go back to rewrite or delete cards.

4. Prune with the Deck Editor and Let Spaced Review Do the Sorting

Open the deck editor to rewrite unclear cards and delete duplicates or cards you already know cold. You do not need to tag or colour-code the rest: spaced review tracks how you rate each card and brings the weak ones back sooner, so the cards you struggle with surface on their own.

5. Collaboration and Sharing

Scholarly supports sharing, making it a convenient choice for study groups. You can share pages or specific flashcard components as a link so classmates can study from the same deck.
