Quizlet Features

API function

Quizlet provides an application programming interface that allows others to access Quizlet data. Available functions include uploading and downloading flashcards, modifying users' flashcards, and finding definitions created by Quizlet users.

Speller mode

In this mode, the term is read out loud and users must type in the term with the correct spelling.

Long Term Learning mode

In this study mode, users are given a recommended study set based on whether or not they answer study set questions correctly. Repetition of terms answered incorrectly increase in frequency and a dashboard shows learning progress over time. The mode uses spaced repetition concepts to focus on longer-term retention and subject mastery versus shorter-term memorization.

Scatter mode

In this study mode, users are presented with a grid with terms scattered around it. Users drag terms on top of their associated definitions to remove them from the grid, and try to clear the grid in the fastest time possible.

Flash Cards mode

a Quizlet game mode where users are shown a "card" for each term. Users can click to flip over the card, or use their arrow keys, and see the definition for that term
