Abstract

Didactic card games have demonstrated their efficacy in engaging Generation Z students in diverse course materials in the field of natural sciences. However, the absence of suitable tools poses a significant obstacle to the creation of card decks which include complex formulas. In this paper, we introduce a JavaScript-based web application that simplifies and accelerates the design process by providing support for LaTeX that enables the integration of scientific equations onto the cards. The proposed software aims to encourage educators to participate in card deck design, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the broader adoption of scientific card games.
