PUMA Shareware Presents: Spanish <--> English FLASHCARDS FLASHCARDS is designed to build Spanish vocabulary quickly and easily. It is simple to operate so that the student can concentrate on mastering the lessons. In each lesson, the student is presented with 5 sets of 20 cards. Each set is called a level and the program randomly selects from the 20 cards, 50 times. The object is to complete the 50 questions without incurring more that three errors (three "Strikes" and you're out). If you get the third strike, the high score is updated and you start over. Typically you would start with level one and repeat it until you have "Successfully" completed it 10 times. At level two, you will be presented with a second set of 20 cards. At level two you work your way through the 2 nd set and then the first set (you already know these), until you have completed both sets "Successfully" 10 times. By the time you get to level 5 you will work your way from level 5 to level 4 to level 3 to level 2 to level 1. As you progress through the series, the questions seem easier. Getting started: So you start up and are presented with a question, and you haven't got a clue. Take a wild guess or just press the enter key. FLASHCARD will beep and display the correct "Answer" above your input. The cursor then travels to the upper right corner of the screen where it waits for you to . Note the difference between your input and the correct answer and then bump a key for the next question. You will likely strike out 10 times or more before you complete the set successfully. When you make a error, the question will repeat after a few times. To start try to get the first letter of the answer correct and then a few more letters correct on succeeding tries. Review: When you have mastered lesson 1 continue with lesson 2. I like to go back and review all previous lessons after completing a lesson. The repetition and review will quickly make these words yours to command. Finally: At startup you will be given two options. The first is the level (1 - 5) and the second is whether you want Spanish or English input. If you are a beginner, the English input will be a bit easier. You should however alternate Spanish and English input until you master the cards in both modes. The only other thing you need to know is how to get out of the program if you want to return to the operating system. That's easy, press followed by enter.
