Flash Cards
This mode is similar to paper flash cards. In it, users are shown a "card" for each term. Users
can click to flip over the card and see the definition for that term.[15]
Learn
In this study mode, users are shown a term or definition and must type the term or definition that
goes with what is shown. After entering their answer, users see if their answer was correct or
not, and can choose to override the automatic grading and count their answer as right if needed.
Speller
In this mode, the term is read out loud and users must type in the term with the correct spelling.
[15]
Scatter
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.[15]
Space Race
In this study mode, definitions scroll across the screen. Users must type the term that goes with
the definition before it reaches the other side of the screen. Users begin with two lives each, and
as they correctly type in words, they 'level up' and gain a life. Lives are lost when a user does not
manage to correctly name the definition of the word.[15]
Gravity
In this study mode, definitions scroll vertically across the screen. The user must type the term
