Aimed primarily for students in grades 4-12, the site uses 'chat' interaction to allow students to work with qualified tutors for homework help in many subject areas. You do need a library card to access the site. If you're not already a library member, please visit your closest Davenport or Scott County Library location to sign up for a library card. Your library card is a great resource in accessing the many resources of your local library

http://www.studystack.com

StudyStack.com strives to help people learn what they want to learn. The StudyStackTM concept was designed to help people memorize information about various subjects. Using the StudyStack web site, you use your computer to display a stack of "virtual cards" which contain information about a certain subject. Just like flashcards, you can review the information at your own pace discarding the cards you've learned and keeping the ones you still need to review.
