DualCards β Same knowledge, different form. Every time.
Tired of memorizing how a card looks instead of what it actually says? DualCards solves exactly that. Each card contains two versions of the same information, written in two different ways. Every time the card appears, DualCards randomly switches between the two formats β forcing your brain to truly recall the knowledge, not just recognize the layout.
π How to use:
1. Download the add-on, install via Tools β Add-ons β write in the code, and restart Anki
2. Click Add to create a new card
3. At the top, click the note type dropdown
4. Select DualCards from the list
5. Fill in Field1 with your content in one format/question
6. Fill in Field2 with the same content in a different format/question (must be a cloze, and the have the same cloze number as Field1)
7. DualCards will automatically and randomly switch between the two fields every time the card appears during studying
Note: Different cloze numbers can be in the Field1 and Field2. The add-on will shuffle between the clozes with the same number
Example:
Field1:
What is the first-line medical treatment for Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH))
{{c1::Finasteride (5-a-reductase inhibitor) and Alfuzosin (alpha-blocker)}}
Field2:
First-line medical treatment for BPH is {{c1::Alfuzosin (alpha-blocker) and Finasteride (5-a-reductase inhibitor)}}
Every time this card appears, DualCards randomly shows either Field1 or Field2 β same answer, different format, stronger memory!
