For those who teach in centres without internet access you might want to look at the software available at the link below.  Tarsia Formulator is built for maths but works really well with any test entry.  It is a simple tool which will allow you to create simple or complex question/answer dominoes for revision activities or even for concept mapping.  It is totally free and pretty powerful.
