States study list

Description: This study list contains various facts about each of the 50 states of the United States of America. It demonstrates the versatility and power of the Scriptorian Linx feature.

Suggested Usage: The Quote It and Chase settings that the study list was created with will cause the keywords to be displayed for Quote It and the keywords or any of the Topix to be used for Chase. However, you can change these settings to learn and view the information in a variety of ways.

This list can be used most effectively in Chase multiple choice mode. If you want to use it as a trivia game, then you will probably not need to change anything. However, if you would like to concentrate on learning certain facts about each of the states, you may want to select one or two Topix and concentrate on those first. For example, you may want Chase to only show the state Bird and Tree Topix. To set Chase up this way, open the Study List Options dialog (you can access it by clicking on the Options button located on the Study List window tool bar) and select the Chase Linx tab to configure your options. Then to only show the state bird and tree information in Chase, select the Only Specified Linx Topix check box, and then select Bird and Tree from the list of Topix items.

If you are serious about really learning the facts, or just want more of a challenge, you may want to run the list with Quote It in complete fill in mode. Not all of the Linx Topix would be useful for Quote It, so you will want to select only those that are. You can configure the Quote It settings in the Study List Options dialog in the same way as described above for configuring Chase (just select the Quote It Linx tab instead of the Chase Linx tab this time). For example, you could use Quote It to memorize all the capitols of the states, or the state mottos, but you probably wouldn't want to use it for memorizing the area of each state (unless you really want to know your facts!).
