Maybe the cards could be made even more effective if they asked you to come up with an application on the spot?
Hmm. I'm interested, but I'm not exactly sure what you're envisioning. Could you elaborate? I have another deck with SAT grammar (because I'm an SAT tutor) and I have cards that ask me to come up with example sentences for common grammar mistakes. I have specific answers on the back of the cards, but I'll mark them correct if I come up with anything that correctly demonstrates the principle. So maybe something analogous to that?
You could do that, or for a greater challenge you could mark the card as incorrect if you came up with anything but a new and original application.
