When it comes to public speaking, a cue card or note card is a common tool used to help a speaker remember important points. However, there are a variety of synonyms for this term that can be used in different situations. For example, some may refer to their notes as a "prompt sheet" or "cue sheet" if they are part of a theatrical performance. In education, students might use "flashcards" to study for a test or "revision cards" to prepare for an exam. Some speakers might use the term "teleprompter" if they are reading from a screen instead of physical cards. No matter what you call it, having a cue card or similar tool can help make any public speaking situation less daunting.
