By Betty Murray


As much as someone may look at them as simple toy-looking gadgets, they have great value in the learning and teaching process. After being used and proved to be a good technique, it has gained popularity all over the world. It motivates learners making them more interested. It is therefore used to help some learners who believed mathematics is tough to change their attitude. Math flashcards have not only improved attitude but also the performance in the subject.

The technology has been embraced by most stakeholders, but there are some few who have not fully embraced it. In class, the teacher should try and move together with the whole class. The teacher, therefore, has to motivate and urge them to develop a positive attitude. The teacher, therefore, needs to explain to the students how the technique could improve their performance.

The mathematics subject is very wide, and it, therefore, has a lot of alternative methods of solving various problems. With such diversity, it is expected to have different individuals sticking to certain ways of working out the problems. The slow learners have their pace, and as a good teacher, the pace of each one of them should be known so that none is left behind as the rest of the class develops well.

It is a suitable method for both children and adult learners. It is not limited to a certain class of learners meaning it is versatile. Other than mathematics the technique could still apply where other subjects are concerned. The retention of information is higher as compared to when the normal methods are used.This is a simple, direct and hassle-free mode of learning that both children and adult learners appreciate.

The manner in which they are used to demonstrate also keeps the student alert. It enhances concentration, and thus the students will get to like the subject much more. Others simply enjoy the flashing and repetition employed in the technique. The flashing stimulates the mind and makes it find references relating to the flashed images quickly. This makes it possible for them to remember most of these formulas easily.

The flashcards are easy to make. They are made from cheap materials most of which are locally available. Some materials for purchase is solely depended on the number of cards that are needed. Therefore the cards can be made as many as possible enough to cover almost most of the concepts the teacher might need to teach. The cards are highly versatile, meaning they can be used for other subjects too other than mathematics.

It is cheap to afford and does not require a lot of skill to make. You need locally available materials such as crayons and color makers. These are chosen depending on the type of color preferred. A pair of scissors is used for cutting and shaping the paperboard into the desired designs. They are therefore designed to suit the subject specifically.

There are different types of the technique for the math subject. There are those for teaching multiplication, addition, and subtraction. And there are those for the division and fractional operations. All these are in the form of sets, and each set is suitable for a particular topic. Therefore it makes the teaching of this subject simple and interesting thus improving performance of learners.
