Ways to use Quizlet to make card sets that students can use to study vocabulary, images, people, equations, etc.

1. 10 Ways to Use Quizlet

2. 1. Create a new set.
Select "Create a Set" in the
the top middle of the site.
After adding basic
information about your set,
make sure to set the
language of both the term
and definition. Quizlet can
"auto-define" to save lots of
time. Select a definition
that's close and edit as
needed.

3. 2. Search a set to add to your collection.
Type keywords into the
search bar just right of the
Quizlet logo to find card
sets. Be specific because
you might find that
someone else has already
created what you need or
come close.

4. 3. Edit a set in your collection.
If you find a set that you like
but need to make some
changes, open the set and
select “copy” on the toolbar
in the upper right. This will
bring you to the editor,
which is the same place
card sets are created.

5. 4. Organize sets by classes and folders.
When you start using
Quizlet more often, sets can
soon become unorganized.
The “Add to Folder” and
“Share” options are on the
toolbar in the upper right.

6. 5. Import a list from other learning materials
or curriculum document.
Select “Import Data” at the
top of the “Enter your terms”
section. Set the
term/definition format (i.e.,
separated by tab or
comma). Paste your list into
the area provided on the
right. Since we often only
have a list, take advantage
of importing at least the
terms so you can auto-
define in the set editor.

7. 6. Add images to your set.
One of the most useful
features is “Add Images.”
Select the option located
below the “Enter your
terms” section title. This
gives you the option to
upload images or run a
search. Since images are
so important for learning, I
make sets with images and
terms for each unit of study.

8. 7. Print cards, glossary, or make a PDF.
Even though we have a lot
of digital technology at our
disposal, paper-based
learning materials still play
a role in an efficient learning
environment. For some
students, printed glossaries
or card sets are the best
way for them to learn.
Select “Print” on the toolbar
and choose the print mode
(cards, glossary, etc.).

9. 8. Combine sets.
Select “Combine” option under “More Tools” on the toolbar.
This brings you to a screen that allows you to combine from
multiple sets. This option is helpful if you prefer to present
smaller chunks of material to students and later assess
more than one chunk (or lesson) at a time.

10. 9. Share via Twitter (teens like this),
Facebook (teens don't like this)
Sets and folders can
be shared using
Twitter, Facebook,
short link, or e-mail.
This option is located
on the toolbar. Folders
can be shared from
the toolbar in the
upper left when a
folder is open.

11. 10. Make a quiz for practice or summative
assessment.
Open a set and select “Test” in
the middle of the study bar.
Format options are easy to
change by changing options
on the right. It is important to
be critical of the assessment
items that are created. I often
change the definitions to sets
because the test is too easy.
Chances are, if a set is a good
assessment, then it’s a good
learning activity and vice
versa.
