Handing out a set of cards is easy. Knowing whether anyone actually used them is the hard part. A class on EasyPalmCards closes that gap: you assign a set once, every student sees it in one place, and you can see at a glance who has opened it and who has studied it before the quiz, the oral or the debate.
It works with both kinds of set the editor makes. Flash card sets open in the same study modes students already know, with flip cards, Learn, Test, Match and spaced repetition. Speech and presentation sets open as note cards that students rehearse one card at a time with a timer.
How a class works
- Create a class Open My classes, choose New class and give it a name students will recognise, such as "Year 9 English" or "Debate club".
- Share the join code Each class gets an eight-character code and a join link. Write the code on the board or post the link in your learning platform. Codes avoid letters that look alike, so 0 and O or 1 and I never get mixed up.
- Students sign in and join Students sign in with a free account and type the code. The class then appears under My classes on every device they use.
- Assign sets Pick a set from My Cards, or paste a share link from the editor. Add a short note and a due date if you like.
- Check progress Open the class to see how many students opened and studied each set, then expand a set to see each student.
Assigning sets
An assigned set is your own saved set, not a frozen copy. If you spot a typo or want to add three more terms the night before a test, change it in the editor and the class sees the new version straight away. If you assign a set someone else shared publicly, such as a colleague's revision deck, we copy it into your account first, so the class keeps working even after their link expires.
You can make a new class each term or keep one per subject. You can close joining once everyone is in, make a new code if the old one has been passed around, and remove a student who joined the wrong class. Removing a student also deletes their progress for that class.
What students get
Students see every class they are in on one page, with the sets still to study at the top. Flash card sets keep each student's progress on their device, so the cards they find hard come back sooner. In a class whose teacher has the Classroom plan, that progress is also saved to the student's account, so it carries on from a school laptop to a phone at home.
Speech sets open in a calm rehearsal view: one large card at a time, back and next buttons sized for small hands, swipe on phones, and a simple timer so students can practice getting through the whole talk. There is nothing to install and no editing tools to get lost in.
Seeing progress
For each set you see two numbers: how many students opened it and how many studied it. Expand a set for a row per student showing when they opened it, when they last studied, how many sessions they did and their score from the latest flip, Learn or Test round. That is enough to spot who needs a nudge, without turning revision into surveillance.
Privacy and younger students
Classes are often full of children, so we built them to collect as little as possible. Joining a class asks for no extra personal details. Teachers see a first name and last initial, never an email address. We store dates and counts for each set, not the answers students type. There are no ads on class pages, and no ads anywhere on the site for anyone who is in a class, free or paid.
Students still need an account to join, because that is how a class knows who is who. If your school has rules about student accounts, check them before you start. Students can leave a class at any time.
Free trial and the Classroom plan
Every teacher can run one free class with up to 5 students and 3 assigned sets. That is enough to try it with a small group, a club or a tutoring session and see whether your students use it.
The Classroom plan is $79 USD a year and covers up to 10 classes and 40 students. It includes Gold for you, so you can save every set, use the AI tools to draft cards, export clean PDFs and work without ads. Your students get account sync for their flash card progress while they are in your classes. Cancel any time; your classes stay put.
