The user should be able to “flip” the card over. They would likely want to organize cards while studying. Users would like a way to mark a card as correct or incorrect, and to be able to temporarily arrange cards into “piles,” similar to what they might do in real life.

As we discussed, this project is just barely a stretch. Consider broadening your user population or working very hard to take advantage of mobile interface constraints/patterns.

It's not entirely clear how much of your user classes came from talking to specific people or just trying to envision what different roles would be like. Try to anchor your user classes in observations and discussions. Right now the classes are also very similar, with minor variations. Try to poke at what makes those classes different from each other, with respect to interacting with flashcards, not just inputting information.

You also don't seem to really get a good feel for what the tasks your users use to solve your problems, and instead you describe actions that your app will let users take. Don't forget that the next step is to make three separate designs - you shouldn't already have picked one. Think of task analysis as the analysis of tasks that need to be done to solve the problems.

I'd appreciate it if you made these changes, since we'll be working off this document for the whole rest of the project.
