Turn Textbooks, PDFs and Lecture Videos into Flashcards
បំប្លែងសៀវភៅមេរៀន ឯកសារ PDFs និងវីដេអូមេរៀន ទៅជា Flashcards
Summary
Making flashcards by hand takes a long time. One creator built a tool that lets AI convert PDFs, videos, or notes into flashcards that can be imported into Anki, linking each card to the highlighted section.
Most users are medical students who have to study thick books — but students of any major can use this method.
Why this fits Cambodia
Cambodian students, especially medical students dealing with thick books, can save time by converting their PDFs, lecture videos, and notes into flashcards. This method allows students of any major to study more efficiently instead of making cards by hand.

Here is a section from my course material: [PASTE TEXT]. Make 15 flashcards in the format Question | Answer. One idea per card, short answers, include 3 cards that ask 'why' or 'how', not just definitions. After each card, quote the sentence from my text it came from so I can check it. Then give me a 5-question quiz without answers.
