A card with a question on one side and the answer on the other is still one of the best ways to learn a list.

A card on each line.

Type the front, a bar, then the back, such as Capital of Kenya | Nairobi, or paste two columns from a spreadsheet. Lines with no back are named and left out.

Printed to line up.

Each page of fronts is followed by its page of backs, placed so that each back lands behind its front when the sheet turns over. With a printer that prints one side, choose Print to fold: question and answer side by side, folded in half.

Or study on the screen.

Turn each card over, say whether you knew it, and the ones you did not come round again at the end of the round, a simple form of the Leitner idea. The cards are kept on your device only while their switch is on, and are never sent anywhere.
