In Tic-Tac, the player chooses a category of knowledge and then types a short answer to a closed question about that category of knowledge. With correct answers the user receives an "X" and gains points, with incorrect answers the user receives an "O" and loses points.
The mental processing required to generate these answers helps the learner to:
Move information from short-term memory to long-term memory
Deepen understanding of the category of knowledge
