Personal Diary, Notetaking, Learning,Training and Development Tool – iFlips iPhone/iPad App

Posted on by
Reply

iFlipTips is personal study for iPhone/iPad app. The flexibility of its notecard system means it has other diverse uses too. One of the ways iFlipTips can be helpful, even to those who are not studying or using the app for training purposes, is as a personal development tool. The structure of the app, with its text, audio, video and image capabilities, means you can use the app as a library of inspirational quotes, pictures, audio clips and videos to enhance your personal well-being.

iFlipTips works using the same premise as traditional 3×5 notecards. In addition to letting you make text notes, however, the app also enables you to capture images, either from your iPhone camera roll or on the spot, take videos, and record audio.

Using the text boxes, you can create a selection of inspirational or motivational quotes that you can retrieve whenever you need to. The text function in iFlipTips allows you to easily record thoughts that come to mind while you’re away from home, providing you with a convenient place to capture them for later. You can also create affirmation cards, which you can use to provide an on-demand pick-me-up.

The app’s image function enables you to save a range of images, including special moments, meaningful images you happen to see, or anything else you’d like to remember. The video function can fulfill the same purpose, and you can record short films with audio, for a richer memory experience than you might have with just a picture.

If you want to use iFlipTips as a personal development tool, there are several activities you might consider. The text part of the app can be useful as a journaling tool, and the folder system in both the iFlipCards and the iFlipTips-Ideas sections can help you organize your thoughts in a way that makes them easier to find later.

Using the text, audio, image and video tools that come with each “card”, you can create a comprehensive record of meaningful or positive experiences, adding pictures, a written description, and audio or video clips too. Savoring positive moments is a key part of positive psychology and the iFlipTips app provides an effective, easy-to-use way of capturing these experiences so you can enjoy them again and again. Using the app’s “share” feature, you can send your thoughts to Twitter, Facebook, or email them to yourself or others.

The app can also be useful for brainstorming certain issues and capturing the results. For example, if you want to explore your relationship to a certain emotion, you can use each function to give yourself the opportunity to express yourself in multiple ways. Using the text box, you can write down which thoughts come to mind when you think of that emotion, the image box can help you capture a visual representation of what that emotion means to you, and you can use the audio section to record your thoughts, and see if additional ideas come up through speech that weren’t present in your writing.

The iFlipTips app is versatile and you can tailor the app to use in a way that suits you, and the thoughts you want to record.

Art Study Using iFlipTips

iFlipTips is a new study app from TECHtionary. Using text, images, video and audio, you can create digital 3×5 flashcards on your iPhone and carry them around with you wherever you go. Thanks to iFlipTips’ visual component, the app is an effective study tool for subjects like art. Art, and other visual subjects, can be difficult to learn using traditional text-based study methods, however iFlipTips’s versatility means you can learn using a variety of mediums.

The use of different formats enhances iFlipTips’ effectiveness as a study tool, as it caters for people with different learning styles. Whether you learn best by reading, listening, watching or through images, you can customize the cards on iFlipTips to create a library of information that benefits your studies.

Whether you’re studying history of art, fine art, sculpture, textiles, illustration or any other art-based subject, iFlipTips can help you create effective notes and organize them in a way that makes learning easy. The app’s customizable folders system allows you to file your work in way that suits you.

For example, if you are studying history of art, you can create different folders for each artistic period, with a sub-folder for each major artist from that period. Art students whose courses focus on practical art skills can use folders to create a library of their work, with a separate folder for different semesters, different mediums or different shows.

Using the different functions within the app, you can create a comprehensive and visual catalogue of different items, whether you are studying them or want to keep a record of your own artistic progress. The app is divided into two sections: iTips-Ideas cards and iFlipCards. iTips-Ideas cards are helpful for keeping a record of your work, or creating study notes, while you can use iFlipCards to test your knowledge when studying for exams.

Using the integrated camera function, you can take pictures of notable drawings or paintings, or record your own work.The video function enables you to capture details of more complex works you create or study, like sculptures, mosaics, or reliefs. Alongside the image or video of a work, you can include details of the drawing or artist in the text box, or record an audio description using the sound recorder. The audio recorder is also useful for recording important lectures or seminars, so you don’t have to take notes under pressure and miss potentially important information.

The iTips-Ideas cards can help you create a catalogue of your works, as well as works you might have to study as part of your theory lessons. When it’s time to study for exams, you can use the iFlipCards section of the app to test yourself on your art knowledge. One way of doing this is to create a question card containing a painting or the name of an artist, then an answer card containing details of the painting’s period, style and significance, or the artist’s background, style and works. Like the iTips-Ideas cards, you can record information on iFlipCards using text, image, video or audio. This means you can test your knowledge in a variety of ways and ensure you know the material thoroughly before sitting your exams.

iFlipTips newest additionsis called iFlipTipsPro and has a iFlipTips Calendar and multicolor notepads/iDoodleGrams called iFlipPads are perfect ways to adhere to a schedule and manipulate pictures and images for a variety of note uses. The ideas tool is useful for organizing and tracking notes, and other academic related activities. Use it to organize contacts of people you meet during your study or research, reminders or just creative drawings which can be shared via Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter or email.

Creating Digital Catalogs Using iFlipTips

iFlipTips is a new note-taking app developed by TECHtionary. It takes the concept of traditional 3×5 flashcards, and translates it into a digital tool for your iPhone and iPad. The app allows you to create digital cards, which you can then store on your iDevice, using text, images, audio recordings and video clips. The cards come in three formats: iFlipCards are question and answer cards, iFlip-Slides are slide show-style cards, while iTips-Ideas card are note-taking cards.

iFlipTips is the perfect companion for students and professionals alike, as its format makes it highly versatile, and means it can be used for a variety of tasks, from studying for exams, to keeping a digital catalogue of business stock and services. If you run your own business, you can use the iFlipTips app to create a catalogue of your products, services, or both, that you can access and share with potential customers and clients with just a few taps.

If you want to use iFlipTips to create a digital catalogue, start by organizing the folders into a system that is suitable for filing your products or services. You can add as many folders and sub-folders as you like, so you have a lot of flexibility to create a customized folder system that works for your business. Possible folder systems include organizing products and services alphabetically, and creating separate folders for different sections of the alphabet. Alternatively, you can organize products by category, for example if you sell a range of home products, you can create separate folders for each room of the house.

Once you’ve created your folders, you can start creating individual cards for each product or service. To do this, use iTips-Ideas cards or iFlip-Slides. Using the text box, provide a description of the product or service, including any information that you would want to send to clients. You can include a picture of the product in the image section, which you can take with your iPhone or iPad. If relevant, you can also record an audio description, or create a video that explains how the product or service works.

The different mediums provide you with a chance to record exactly what your business offers, and to show potential customers and clients how your product or service works in as much detail as possible. Once you’ve saved your iTips-Ideas card or iFlipSlide in the correct folder, you can share your cards with others via email, Facebook or Twitter.

iTips-Ideas cards and iFlipSlides are useful for creating a catalogue of individual items, however iFlipCards can help you in a different, but equally as important, way. Designed in a question and answer format, you can use these cards to create a Frequently Asked Questions list that you can then use to answer questions from any potential customers or collaborators. This section of the app helps you prepare for customer inquiries and presentations, and prevents you being caught off-guard by unexpected questions.

 

iFlipTips  newest additions is called iFlipTipsPro and has a iFlipTips Calendar and multicolor notepads/iDoodleGrams called iFlipPads are perfect ways to adhere to a schedule and manipulate pictures and images for a variety of note uses.  The ideas tool is useful for organizing and tracking notes, and other academic related activities.

Presentation Development and Improving Presentation Skills Using iFlipTips

By Hannah B. TechEditor – London-England

Good business presentation skills are crucial. We use them in our careers and our personal lives, and utilize these skills even when we might not realize it. Developing your presentation skills can have a positive impact on many different areas of your life and, for that reason; it’s beneficial to improve your presentation skills, even if public speaking isn’t a key part of your job role right now.

iFlipTips is a study and training app for iPad and iPhone that revolutionizes the way we deliver and absorb information. As well as being an invaluable tool for students of all subjects, iFlipTips can also help you when you’re teaching yourself new skills. The app avoids the traditional text-based learning style, and instead focuses on providing you with a variety of tools to help you create flashcards that increase your learning speed and help you retain and recall more information in less time.

The iFlipTips app is divided into three sections: iFlip-Slides iTips-Ideas cards and iFlipCards. Each card contains four different formats: text, image, audio, and video, so you can record and store information using different mediums. When studying and improving your presentation skills, you can use these different formats to learn new skills more efficiently.

If you’re working to improve your presentation skills, the best place to start is to evaluate where you are at the moment. iFlipTips helps you do this, as you can record yourself giving a staged or real presentation using the audio and video functions. Doing this can help you identify and improve aspects of your presentation, such as your body language and tone of voice.

The ability to record videos and audio clips means you can also capture snippets of public speakers and presenters you admire, and use the recordings to compare their style to your own practice sessions. Watching other successful public speakers, you can identify what you enjoy about their delivery, and attempt to reproduce that in your own presentations.

As you develop your skills, recording yourself can also help you prepare for live public speaking engagements. Thorough preparation helps you gain confidence in your ability to give an engaging and interesting presentation. Practice is the key to success, and using the iFlipTips video function, you can simulate what it feels like to have a live audience.

The text function can help you make key notes about presenting skills, for example that you should never start with an apology unless you’ve made an error, and that you should always credit the source of quotes you use. By saving these “notes” in ordered folders, you can easily refer back to them later to remind yourself of key messages and tips.

As well as helping you improve your presentation skills, you can also use iFlipTips to keep you on track during presentations. Use iTips-Ideas cards to outline the structure of your presentation, and record key quotes and facts you want to remember in the text box. If you want to, you can also share your notes with others via email, Facebook or Twitter directly through the app.

If you plan to include a question and answer session at the end of a presentation, the iFlipCards can help you prepare. Create a separate “question” card for each question you anticipate being asked, and then create an ideal response on the “answer” card. Avoid memory blanks and feelings of panic, and instead enjoy confidence in knowing that you’ve prepared as thoroughly as you can.

Study Planning Using Study App for iPhone and iPad

Posted on by
Reply

Creating a study plan gives you greater confidence and improves your organization. Mapping out the different subjects you have to learn, and their deadlines, also enables you to study more thoroughly for exams, as you can prepare for each test in advance rather than trying to cram all the information in at the last minute.

Each student has their own way of studying, so each individual’s study plan will be slightly different. Here are a few tips to help you create a study plan that is tailored to your needs and will help you achieve the results you want in your exams.

Make a list

Write down all the subjects you need to study, as well as the date of the relevant exam. If your exams are close together, you should aim to have done all your studying by the time the first exam arrives; otherwise you can afford to start studying for the some exams now, and leave others until a later date.

Be logical

Having made your list, you might be tempted to simply start studying for your upcoming exams in order of test date. To gain the best results, however, you should order the subjects starting with those that leave you feeling least confident, and save those feel most comfortable until last. You should also think about what grade you want or need to achieve for each exam. If you need all As, you’re going to have to put in more study time than if you just need a pass, so this will affect your study plan.

Make time

Take a calendar and map out times you’re available to study. Try not to over commit yourself as this will be stressful in the run-up to your exams. Instead, be realistic and include any existing commitments in your scheduling. Depending on how many exams you have and how much time you have to study, you should aim for around 2-4 hours of studying per day.

Start early

As well as starting your studying well before the exam period, you should also try to get as much studying done as possible early in the day. It is much better for your motivation levels if you can fit in 2-3 hours of study by lunchtime, rather than leaving it all until the evening.

Create smart notes

Use the iFlipTips app to create study notes that work. These digital flashcards help you memorize information in bite-sized pieces, improving memory retention and your ability to recall information. The more you break information down into smaller chunks, the more likely you are to remember what you’ve learned.

Include breaks

Every study plan should include time for breaks. We can only concentrate for around 30 minutes at a time, so if you carry on studying beyond this you’re unlikely to remember what you’re learning as thoroughly as you would if you took a break. Schedule in five to 10 minute breaks every half an hour to give you a chance to get a drink, stretch and relax.

Be gentle

If you’re finding it difficult to stick to your study plan, be gentle with yourself. This can be frustrating, especially if you’re under a lot of time pressure to learn what you need to know quickly. Try not to beat yourself up about slipping from the plan, and instead think about why you slipped. Are you trying to make yourself learn too much in a short time period, or are you giving yourself enough breaks? Go back to your study plan, make adjustments then start again.

Other features

You can share all cards via email, Facebook and Twitter, enabling you to send your notes and ideas to friends, family, clients or fans.

Journal – Diary Writing Using iFlipTips – iPad/iPhone App

Posted on by
Reply

iFlipTips is a new study and note-taking app from TECHtionary, which enables you to make bite-sized notes that help you record information, learn more efficiently, and experience a greater retention rate.

Whether you are studying literature, or simply love to read, keeping a reading journal can be a rewarding and useful experience. iFlipTips is perfect for this kind of activity, as you can use the app to make text notes, use images, and create audio and video recordings. These different formats can be helpful for creating a comprehensive reading journal that surpasses traditional text reading records.

The iFlipTips app is divided into three different sections: iFlipCards, iTips-Ideas cards, and iFlip-Slides, a new addition to the app. Each of the sections can help you create a reading journal, and you can add text, images, video and audio to each flashcard.

Each section has its own folders system, which allows you to organize your cards in a way that suits you. The app’s filing system can be helpful for ordering your reading journal entries. You can create folders and sub-folders for different genres, or literary periods, then save each new flashcard into the corresponding folder. Alternatively, you can use the folders to create a calendar, designating a folder for each year, then a sub-folder for each month of the year, so you can keep track of how many books you read in a given month or year, and access your chronological records in just a few taps.

The most helpful sections for creating reading record cards are iTips-Ideas cards and iFlip-Slides. Using either of these two types of flashcard, you can create a card for each different book, containing a text synopsis of the book, an image of the cover; any related videos you want to include, and even an audio recording. The ability to include information in different formats opens up a range of possibilities, especially if you are studying literature and want your reading journal to double as a revision aid. You could use the audio section to include a recording of a book group or seminar discussion, and listen back to these recordings through the app later. The text section is useful for a brief synopsis and, for the purposes of studying, to include any important information that is relevant to the social and historical context of the book.

If you’re using your reading journal as a study tool, or want to test yourself on the knowledge you’ve learned through your reading, you can use iFlipCards to create question and answer cards. These cards are completely customizable so you can create cards that ask simple questions about certain books, and cards that require longer, essay-style answers. On the flip side of the card, enter the main points that the answer needs to cover, so that you can compare your blind answer to the model response.

You can share iTips-Ideas cards and iFlip-Slides with others over Facebook, Twitter or email directly from the app. Whether you want to share your notes, ideas, or opinions with fellow book group members, with classmates, or with friends, you can upload the information, or send an email containing the text as part of the body, and links to the video and audio clips. With the ability to share flashcards on Facebook, you can also use the app in place of Facebook apps that showcase your reading habits.

Planning and running a political or social cause campaign is a challenging task, whether you’re working in politics, running a charitable campaign, or raising awareness of a local cause or event. Whatever you’re campaigning for, the iFlipTips app for iPhone and iPad can help.

iFlipTips is a personal organizer and study app that can help you make notes, organize your thoughts and share ideas with others. The app is divided into three sections: iFlipCards, iFlipSlides, and iTipsIdeas. IFlipCards are in a question and answer format, and function like test flashcards. IFlip-Slides allow you to create digital slides on your iPhone or iPad for help with studying, or as part of a presentation. Finally, iTips-Ideas cards are useful for making notes around a certain subject. All three types of flashcards can be organized into different folders using iFlipTips’ customizable storage system. This enables you to access your notes quickly and easily from your iDevice, whenever and wherever you might need them.

When using iFlipTips to help you plan and execute a campaign, the first step is to use the folders system to organize your notes. You can create different folders for different areas of the campaign, for example a folder for fundraising, a folder for key contacts, a folder for events, and a folder for targets. Alternatively, you can also use the folders as a personal organizer system and create a calendar for each week or month of the campaign. This way, each flashcard you create can also function as a task, so you can organize your to-do list, and keep track of which deadlines apply to which tasks too.

Each section of the app can be used in different ways for planning and running campaigns. iTips-Ideas are useful for capturing tasks and ideas associated with events or deadlines, and these fit well with the calendar folder system mentioned above. As well as using iTips-Ideas cards as a task list for yourself, iFlipTips’ sharing features also allow you to quickly and easily delegate tasks to others too.

Using iFlipTips, you can share iTips-Ideas cards and iFlip-Slides using Facebook, Twitter, or through email. iFlipTips is integrated with these third-party features, giving you a seamless sharing experience. Audio and video files can also be sent over social networks or email. Each message contains a link to any video and audio files, which are stored on the iFlipTips server, so don’t take up unnecessary space in the recipient’s inbox.

More and more, social media is becoming an important aspect of campaigning, and iFlipTips’ social sharing functions help you reach out to potential supporters or donators. Using the app, you can create a social media content calendar, and provide your followers with updates on your campaigning activities straight from the app.

Giving presentations, speeches or talks can be a nerve-wracking experience, but iFlipTips provides several tools to help you. iTips-Ideas cards is useful for creating notes that you can use in presentations or speeches. Accessible with only a few taps, these cards can boost your confidence levels and give you peace of mind that your memory won’t fail you during a crucial talk. iFlip-Slides are also a useful accessory for presentations or talks. Connecting your iPhone or iPad to a projector or television, you can use the slides to present information, images, video and audio clips to your audience, adding a professional sheen to your performance. Finally, iFlipCards can help you prepare for those important questions and answer sessions at the end of a speech. Using the app, you prepare stock answers to questions you’re likely to be asked in advance, leaving you prepared for whatever the audience might ask.

Crowdsourcing Using iFlipTips – iPhone/iPad App

Crowdsourcing entails outsourcing projects or tasks to the general public. It is different from hiring contractors as the process involves advertising a task to the general public, then requesting people with suitable expertise to come forward and apply.

iFlipTips, the new study and note-taking app from TECHtionary, is useful in a variety of situations, not least when you’re attempting to complete a project through crowdsourcing. While this method of outsourcing work can be a helpful way of completing tasks quickly and at a low cost, it requires excellent project management skills, and the ability to keep track of which tasks you’ve designated to which people. As a versatile app that is fully customizable and gives you complete flexibility over the kind of information you record, and how you organize that information, iFlipTips can help you run a successful crowdsourcing project from your iPhone or iPad.

iFlipTips is divided into three different types of digital flashcard: iTips-Ideas cards, iFlipCards, and iFlip-Slides. Each different type of card has its own use when organizing a crowdsourcing project, depending on your needs and what kind of project you’re running.

iTips-Ideas cards and iFlip-Slides are helpful for preparing comprehensive instructions for the task that needs to be completed. On each card, you can include text, an image, a video clip, and an audio recording, that can help you describe with precision exactly what you want. iFlip-Slides are particularly helpful if you need to give a presentation or talk about the project, as you can use the slides as a visual aid by connecting your iPad or iPhone to a monitor or projector.

The iFlipCards section of iFlipTips enables you to create cards in a question and answer format. These cards are especially useful if you want to send a FAQ list to someone else who is working on the project.

The folder system for each section of the app can help you keep track of projects in progress. If you have multiple projects on the go, you can create a folder for each one, and then create sub-folders relating to specific areas you have outsourced to others. Alternatively, you can create a separate folder for each individual you have outsourced work to, so you can easily keep track of their tasks and deadlines.

IFlipSlides and iTips-Ideas cards can be shared with others via Facebook, Twitter and email. Not only does this enable you to share details of tasks quickly and easily with people hired through crowdsourcing, but you can also share tasks that still need doing on social networking websites to try and attract more interest.

When emailing individuals with details of a task, the app pastes the text into the body of the email, and provides a link to the video and audio recordings, which are stored on the iFlipTips server. This helps you avoid sending emails with large attachments and, because of the nature of the app, requires you to send information in bite-sized, memorable chunks, reducing the chance of misunderstanding and, consequently, the efficiency of the project.
