Uses for Mental Case

Best Mac Apps For Flashcards

The things you can use Mental Case for are as diverse as knowledge itself. Use it to remember day-to-day things like phone numbers, birthdays, and recipes. Study mathematics or history for an exam at school or college. You can even use it for self-development: remind yourself what’s important in life (like your family and friends) or motivate yourself to continue a personal project or stick to that diet.

We’ve come up with a list of uses to give you some ideas, but it’s far from exhaustive. Anything that you would ever want to remember or be reminded of can be put into Mental Case.

Know-Where: Existence Recall

Mac Apps For Flashcards 4th Grade

There is so much information available to us in the information age that it is impossible to remember it all. What distinguishes a knowledgeable person from a less-knowledgeable one? More and more, it is not about what you know, but where you know to find out more. We call this ‘know-where’, because you know about the existence of something and where to find the details.

Mental Case is very useful for improving your know-where. It can help you recall the existence of a book, web site, or particular technique so — when you need to draw on that information — you know where to find out more. Knowing what to search for is 99% of the battle. Don’t go nowhere, go know-where — Mental Case makes it easy.
