I recently stumbled upon a new web 2.0 Application I thought would be very useful to my teachers called Quizlet. Quizlet is a great application that allows it's users to create Flashcards easily. It's a great tool because not only can you just create Flashcards but you can also easily create flashcard sets with as many questions and answers as you want, import questions and answers from your computer or other websites (or just type them in directly). You can also cut and paste questions from other peoples' flashcard sets to make your own and Invite friends to share your flashcards via email, Facebook, or MySpace. You can also do One-click look up of official dictionary definitions, and other users' previous answers.
One of the best features of Quizlet is you can create a group so your friends or classmates can study together. You can also discuss answers with your group via live chat. Another great feature is that you can get notified when group members post new study sets, you can edit and improve sets created by other group members, and a great feature the groups can be private or public. Here is a link where you can get look at a video tour.
This is a great site and a great teacher resource. It comes in handy in a lot of ways in the classroom, and is a great way to study with your students on upcoming test or math equations, formulas, scientific method. I hop you all find it to be as useful as I have.
