Real-world Applications
Students can use Knowt to make studying more efficient by automatically generating flashcards from their own notes, class PDFs, or even lecture videos. For example, a student struggling to remember key details from a recorded lecture can upload the video to flashcard maker, which will summarize the content and create flashcards on important points.
Teachers can also benefit from Knowt by using it to organize multiple sections in one class and track student progress. For instance, a teacher might want to identify which flashcards students struggle with the most. Using Knowt, they can see exactly where students need more help and tailor their lessons accordingly.
Picture yourself in a history class trying to remember the key dates of the American Revolution. Instead of combing through dense textbooks, just upload a PDF with the chapter and let Knowt do the heavy lifting. You might even discover a fact like “George Washington’s favorite dance move was the minuet”—okay, maybe not that, but it’s still a quicker way to get through your study materials!
