Studying is not the intended function of this application, however, by uploading lecture slides as images, or taking pictures of the board during class, then uploading these images to Pixntell, would allow you to create your very own custom Flashcards. By recording your own audio notes to accompany the images, you could create short movies that could act as bitesize recap tools to support your revision, or prompts for studying, or a visual plan for your coursework.

"Creating quizzes in Google Forms is one of the things that I usually teach people how to do during my Google Apps workshops. Google Forms are very useful for delivering short quizzes online. However, if you need to have a paper copy of that quiz printing the Google Form was less than elegant until today. This afternoon on the Google Drive Google+ page it was announced that now when you print a Google Form it is generated in a printer-friendly format. "f you need paper copies of your Google Forms for students who cannot complete the form online for one reason or another, the new printer-friendly version of forms will be useful to you and your students."
