Owlia Cards

v1.2.1Stable AIMoodle 4.5 – 5.3

Flashcard decks generated from course content or written by hand — for self-paced recall practice.

Owlia Cards is a flashcard activity. Instructors build the deck by hand, paste it as text, or have the Owlia AI generate it from selected course content — as question-and-answer, fill-in-the-blank or story cards, in the language they choose — and review every card before saving.

Learners study the deck on the course page or on its own page: flip cards, move through them, shuffle, flag the hard ones and review only those, or download the deck. AI is used only when the instructor generates cards; learners never trigger it.

Learning alignment

The value for learners and instructors

Where this plugin genuinely supports learning — and where it does not.

Retrieval practice

Core

Flip cards ask learners to recall before they look, and flagging lets them return to the cards they find hard.

Instructor workload

Core

A deck from existing course content in one step, with the instructor reviewing and editing every card before learners see it.

Learner autonomy

Supporting

Learners set their own pace, order and focus within a session.

Accessibility

Supporting

The card carousel is keyboard operable, announces changes to screen readers and respects reduced motion.

What it does not do

There is no spaced-repetition scheduling: flags and card order last only while the page is open, and neither learners nor instructors get progress data. Cards mostly target remembering and understanding.
